8 0

Answer:

C. A neutron turns into a proton

D. An electron is ejected from the nucleus

Explanation:

  • Beta decay is a type of the three major types of decays, others being alpha decay and gamma decay.
  • During a beta decay the atomic number of an atom increases by one while the mass number remains the same.
  • Beta decay may be classified as; an electron emission, positron emission and electron capture.
  • <em><u>During electron emission an energetic electron is emitted from the nucleus, together with an antineutrino and a neutron in the nucleus turns into a proton. </u></em>

Explain how earth plates and lithosphere are related
AnnyKZ [126]

Crust, the upper layer of the Earth, is not always the same. Crust under the oceans is only about 5 km thick while continental crust can be up to 65 km thick. Also, ocean crust is made of denser minerals than continental crust.

The tectonic plates are made up of Earth’s crust and the upper part of the mantle layer underneath. Together the crust and upper mantle are called the lithosphere and they extend about 80 km deep. The lithosphere is broken into giant plates that fit around the globe like puzzle pieces. These puzzle pieces move a little bit each year as they slide on top of a somewhat fluid part of the mantle called the asthenosphere. All this moving rock can cause earthquakes.

The asthenosphere is ductile and can be pushed and deformed like silly putty in response to the warmth of the Earth. These rocks actually flow, moving in response to the stresses placed upon them by the churning motions of the deep interior of the Earth. The flowing asthenosphere carries the lithosphere of the Earth, including the continents, on its back.

When performing your experiment, you add your first drop of oleic acid/benzene solution, and a lens forms immediately. what is w
trasher [3.6K]

What's wrong with this setup is the substrate on which you have positioned the drop is "dirty and unclean" meaning it is not being dampened by the solution. This action can be corrected by comprehensively cleaning the substrate where the drop will be positioned.

Yasmin's teacher asks her to make a supersaturated saline solution. Her teacher tells her that the solubility of the salt is 360
Aleks [24]

Answer:

She can add 380 g of salt to 1 L of hot water (75 °C) and stir until all the salt dissolves. Then, she can carefully cool the solution to room temperature.  

Explanation:

A supersaturated solution contains more salt than it can normally hold at a given temperature.

A saturated solution at 25 °C contains 360 g of salt per litre, and water at 70 °C can hold more salt.

Yasmin can dissolve 380 g of salt in 1 L of water at 70 °C. Then she can carefully cool the solution to 25 °C, and she will have a supersaturated solution.

B and D are wrong. The most salt that will dissolve at 25 °C is 360 g. She will have a saturated solution.

C is wrong. Only 356 g of salt will dissolve at 5 °C, so that's what Yasmin will have in her solution at 25 °C. She will have a dilute solution.
