The correct answer here is A - An atom with a positive charge has more
protons than electrons. In the other instances the atom would have a
negative charge.
It will take 5.2 years to decay.
The half life of cobalt-60 is 5.2 years. The half life is the time taken for the mass of the substance to decrease by a half.
here, the amount of remaining substance is 50%,
so, ![(\frac{1}{2} )^{n} = 0.5](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%28%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20%29%5E%7Bn%7D%20%3D%200.5)
n. log (0.5) = log (0.5)
n = 1
So it would take 1 half lives to decay this much, which is 1 x 5.2 which is 5.2 years.
what do you mean by radioactive decay ?
The process through which an unstable atomic nucleus loses energy via radiation is known as radioactive decay, also known as nuclear decay, radioactivity, radioactive disintegration, or nuclear disintegration. A material that has unstable nuclei is considered as radioactive.

Answer:
the lack of maria; the thicker crust means it was harder for giant impacts to pierce the crust and get darker basaltic lava bubbling up.
Explanation:
Explanation:
In chemistry, water(s) of crystallization or water(s) of hydration are water molecules that are present inside [crystal]s. Water is often incorporated in the formation of crystals from aqueous solutions. ... Water of crystallization can generally be removed by heating a sample but the crystalline properties are often lost
