How will the number of neutrons in an atom impact its stability?

astraxan [27]

<span>Neutrons emit residual strong force without electric charge. This is why they have a stabilization effect. It is an interplay between the two particles which stabilize the nucleus.</span> so the neutrons play a big role in the stability process.

aluminum has a density or 2.7g/cm3. copper has a density of 8.96/cm3. which metal would you choose to build a model airplane?

erik [133]

Answer: Aluminium

Explanation: Aluminium metal has a lower density than copper. So, for the same volume of metal used to build a model airplane, the aluminium plane would be very lightweight while that of copper would be heavy. The lightweight airplane will fly easily.

An isotope of potassium with a half-life of roughly one billion years is often used in radioactive dating. This isotope decays t

melisa1 [442]

Answer : The chemical symbol for the element that results from this process is, (Ar) for argon.

Explanation :

Electron capture : In this decay process, a parent nuclei absorbs an electron and gets converted into a neutron. Simply, a proton and an electron combines together to form a neutron. Mass number does not change in this process.

$_Z^A\textrm{X}+_{-1}^0\textrm{e}\rightarrow _{Z-1}^A\textrm{Y}$

The equation for the given reaction is,

$_{19}^{40}\textrm{K}+_{-1}^0\textrm{e}\rightarrow _{18}^{40}\textrm{Ar}$

Thus, the chemical symbol for the element that results from this process is, argon (Ar).
