The correct answer is Gamma decay. It happens after beta and alpha decay because what's left after those two can enter a new process of gamma decay. This releases gamma rays which is a more complex term for the photons that you mentioned before. These rays can be dangerous for humans so care not to get caught in them.

Milk is heterogeneous mixture why​
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

Milk is essentially a colloidal dispersion of fat in water. ... However, the fact remains that the fat and water components cannot be mixed together from a solution. There are therefore, two distinct immiscible liquid phase's present, which is why it is a heterogeneous mixture.

Bromo-4-fluorohexane has two chiral carbon atoms; therefore, the maximum number of possible stereoisomers that can be formed is
Zepler [3.9K]

Here we have to draw the four isomers of the compound 3-bromo-4-fluorohexane.

The four isomers of the compound is shown in the figure.      

In an organic molecule the chiral -C center is that where four (4) different groups are present. In 3-bromo-4-fluorohexane the 3 and 4 positions are chiral centers. The possible isomers of a molecule can be obtained from the formula 2n. As here 2 chiral centers are present thus number of stereoisomers will be 2×2 = 4.

The four different isomers as shown in the figure are 3R-, 4R-; 3S-, 4S; 3R, 4S and 3S-, 4R- 3-bromo-4-fluorohexane.

In the 3-bromo-4-fluorohexane the functional groups are -Br, C₂H₅, -C₃H₆F and -H for 3-position and -F, -C₂H₅, -C₃H₆ and -H for 4-position respectively.

The priority of the -3 position will be Br > C₃H₆F > C₂H₅ > H and for -4 position F > C₃H₆Br > C₂H₅ > H. If the rotation from the higher priority group to lower is clockwise and anticlockwise then the S- and R- notation are used respectively. However if the -H atom is present at the horizontal position then the notation will be reverse.

Thus the four isomers of the compound is shown.

Can someone please help me with this?
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

1. Main sequence stars have different masses. The common characteristic they have is their source of energy. They burn fuel in their core through the process of fusing hydrogen atoms into helium.

2. Supergiants are among the most massive and most luminous stars. Supergiant stars occupy the top region of the Hertzsprung–Russell diagram with absolute visual magnitudes between about −3 and −8. The temperature range of supergiant stars spans from about 3,400 K to over 20,000 K.

3. Supergiants develop when massive main-sequence stars run out of hydrogen in their cores.

4. a supernova occur When the pressure drops low enough in a massive star, gravity suddenly takes over and the star collapses in just seconds. This collapse produces the explosion.

5. when a star has reached the end of its life and explodes in a brilliant burst of light
