Answer: -
²²³Ra is the daughter nuclide produced when ²²⁷Th undergoes alpha decay
Explanation: -
When alpha decay occurs, the mass number of the parent decreases by 4 and the atomic number decreases by 2.
Mass number of ²²⁷Th =227
Atomic number of ²²⁷Th = 90
Mass number of daughter = 227 - 4 = 223
Atomic number of daughter = 90 - 2 = 88
88 is the atomic number of Ra Radium.
Thus the daughter is ²²³Ra
Answer:
That unknown substance is water
Explanation:
We are given with a compound, Zinc (Zn) having a 1.7 x 10
^23 atoms. We are tasked to solve for it's corresponding mass in g. We need to
find first the molecular weight of Zinc, that is
Zn= 65.38 g/mol
Not that 1 mol=6.022x10^{23} atoms, hence,
1.7 x 10 ^23 atoms x 1 mol/6.022x10^{23} atoms x65.38
g/ 1mol
=18.456 g of Zn
Therefore, the mass of Zinc 18.456 g
