A stable isotope has just<em> the right number of neutrons for the number of protons </em>(the <em>n:p ratio</em>) to hold the nucleus together against the repulsions of the protons.
A radioactive isotope has either too few or too many neutrons for the nucleus to be stable,
The nucleus will then emit <em>alpha, beta, or gamma radiation</em> in an attempt to become more stable.
Answer:
involves the splitting of an atom into two or more fragments
Explanation:
Answer:
K, the rate constant = 9.73 × 10^(-1)/s
Explanation:
r = K × [A]^x × [B]^y
r = Rate = 1.07 × 10^(-1)/s
K = Rate constant
A and B = Concentration in mol/dm^-3
A = 0.44M
B = 0.11M
x = Order of reaction with respect to A = 0
y = Order of reaction with respect to B = 1
Solving, we get
r/([A]^x × [B]^y) = K
K = 1.07 × 10^(-1)/s/(0.44^0 × 0.11^1)= 0.9727
K = 0.9727
It changes rocks and minerals by water, ice, acids, salt, and changes in the temperature. Once the rock has been broken down a process named erosion happens, it transports bits of rocks and minerals away
An element is a pure substance made up of only one kind of atom. An element is composed of atoms in which it is composed of neutrons and protons. The nucleus is surrounded by electrons. The answer to this problem is A. element
