Write a nuclear equation for the decay of Polonium 211

Chemistry
1 answer:
kumpel [21]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

₈₄Po²¹¹   →   ₈₂Pb²⁰⁷  + ₂He⁴  + energy

Explanation:

Polonium-211 is unstable nuclei. It undergoes alpha decay and produce Pb-207 and alpha particle.

Nuclear equation:

₈₄Po²¹¹   →   ₈₂Pb²⁰⁷  + ₂He⁴  + energy

Properties of alpha radiation:

Alpha radiations are emitted as a result of radioactive decay. The atom emit the alpha particles consist of two proton and two neutrons. Which is also called helium nuclei. When atom undergoes the alpha emission the original atom convert into the atom having mass number less than 4  and atomic number less than 2 as compared to parent atom the starting atom.

Alpha radiations can travel in a short distance.

These radiations can not penetrate into the skin or clothes.

These radiations can be harmful for the human if these are inhaled.

These radiations can be stopped by a piece of paper.

Which one of the following is the net ionic equation for the reaction of nitric acid with aluminum hydroxide
kompoz [17]
The ionic eqn is as follow:

1 Al(OH)3(s) + 3 H+(aq) + 3 NO3(-1) --> 1 Al(3+)(aq) + 3 NO3(-)(aq) + 3 H2O(l)

3moles of No3- ion on both sides cancels out to give the net ionic eqn:

1 Al(OH)3(s) + 3 H+(aq) --> 1 Al(3+)(aq) + 3 H2O(l)

STatiana [176]

Alkenes must undergo addition because they have easily broken tt bonds.

Markonikov's rule states in the addition of HX to an unsymmetrical alkene, the H atom bonds to the less substituted carbon atom.

alkenes are unsaturated hydrocarbons because they have fewer than the maximum number of hydrogen atoms per carbon.

Alkyl halides have good leaving groups and therefore readily undergo substitution and elimination reactions.

In hydroboration, the boron atom bonds to the substituted carbon.

Hydroxides, amines and alcoxides undergo substitution and elimination, but can do so only when the heteroatom is made into a good leaving group.
