What did Dalton's atomic theory contribute to science?
Dalton's atomic theory proposed that all matter was composed of atoms, indivisible and indestructible building blocks. While all atoms of an element were identical, different elements had atoms of differing size and mass.
Answer:
D. Malleability
Explanation:
Gold is made up of the element Au and it is a metal.
Pyrite is iron sulfide and it is a non-metal.
- They have very similar appearance to such an extent that pyrite is widely called the fool's gold.
- To distinguish between the two, we simply explore their metallic properties.
- Gold is malleable. Pyrite is not. It will crumble under pressure.
If there weren't any predators, the population of prey would increase and they would starve due to too many mouths to feed.
<span>we know that each
element has an unique spectra and it can be used to identify the
element. it shows that the energy levels of the electrons and different colors are the result of different wavelengths.

<u>Answer:</u> The particle released in the given reaction is one alpha particle
<u>Explanation:</u>
In a nuclear reaction, the total mass and total atomic number remains the same.
For the given fission reaction:

Total mass on reactant side = total mass on product side
222 = A + 218
A = 4
Total atomic number on reactant side = total atomic number on product side
86 = Z + 84
Z = 2
The isotopic symbol of unknown element is
. Another name of helium atom is alpha particle.
Hence, the particle released in the given reaction is one alpha particle
