What type of isotope undergoes radioactive decay?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Rudik [331]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

It should be one that has an unstable nucleus

Explanation:

The forces that normally hold the nucleus together sometimes can't do the job, and so the nucleus breaks apart, undergoing nuclear decay. All elements with 84 or more protons are unstable; they eventually undergo decay. Other isotopes with fewer protons in their nucleus are also radioactive.

I hope this helps :p

If a solution containing A+ ions and a solution containing B- ions have just been mixed and [A+][B-] is greater than Ksp of AB,
frozen [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

In the solution of AB , they are split  to give ions as follows

AB ⇄ A⁺ + B⁻

Product of concentration of A⁺ and B⁻ in saturated solution of AB is constant .

This is called Ksp

Ksp = [A⁺] [ B⁻]

If product of concentration of A⁺  and B⁻ exceeds Ksp , the equilibrium shifts to the left side and excess ions come out of solution in the form of precipitate. So second option is the answer.
