If the thorium-232 isotope emits an alpha particle, what would be the atomic number of the resulting atom?

Chemistry

inysia [295]3 years ago
4 0

<span>Answer is: atomic number of resulting atom is 88.
Alpha particle is nucleus of a helium-4 atom, which is made of two protons and two neutrons.
Nuclear reaction: ²³</span>²Th → ²²⁸Ra + α (alpha particle).

Alpha decay is radioactive decay in which an atomic nucleus emits an alpha particle (helium nucleus) and transforms into an atom with an atomic number that is reduced by two and mass number that is reduced by four.

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

ΔG <0 , ΔH > 0 , ΔS > 0 .

Explanation:

From the data given in question , the reaction is a spontaneous process , hence , the value of change in gibbs free energy would be negative , ΔG <0

And , on dissolution process , the temperature of the water decreases , i.e. , it is an endothermic process , i.e. , the change in enthalphy value is positive , ΔH > 0

And , during the process of dissolution , the ammonia salt break does to ions , i.e. , the randomness increases , hence the ΔS > 0
