Answer:atomic and mass number

Explanation:

Radioactive decay process is a type of process in which a less stable nuclei decomposes to a stable nuclei by releasing some radiations or particles like alpha, beta particles or gamma-radiations. The radioactive decay follows first order kinetics.

General representation of a radioactive nuclide is given as:   _Z^A\textrm{X}

where,

Z represents Atomic number

A represents Mass number

X represents the symbol of an element

Thus atomic and mass numbers are shown in the symbol for a radioactive nuclide.

4. Juan tiene un cilindro de 40 libras herméticamente cerrado con gas propano y lo conecta mediante una válvula a otro cilindro
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

Ver explicacion

Explanation:

Cuando el cilindro de 40 libras está conectado al cilindro de 100 libras, generamos una presión que continúa hasta que los dos cilindros alcanzan la misma presión de gas en equilibrio. Recuerde que el cilindro de 100 libras estaba inicialmente vacío. Esto significa que su presión inicial es 0. El cilindro de 40 libras ya estaba lleno, por lo que dividimos esta cantidad en dos para tener en cuenta su distribución entre los dos cilindros.

Ahora tenemos 20 libras de gas propano presentes en cada cilindro. La implicación de esto es que, en el cilindro de 100 libras, necesitamos 80 libras adicionales para completar las 100 libras.

How is a coefficient used to balance an equation
ludmilkaskok [199]

Let's start to understand this question by a simple combustion reaction involving oxidation of Ethane in the presence of Oxygen. When Ethane is burned in the presence of Oxygen it produces Carbon Dioxide and Water respectively. Therefore, the equation is as,

                                C₂H₆  +  O₂    →    CO₂  +  H₂O

Above reaction shows the reaction and the equation is unbalanced. Balancing chemical equation is important because according to law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor destroyed. Hence, we should balance the number of elements on both side.

                                       LHS                      RHS

Carbon Atoms                  2                            1

Hydrogen Atoms              6                           2

Oxygen Atoms                  2                           3

It means this equation is not obeying the law. Now, how to balance? One way is as follow,

                                C₂H₆  +  O₃    →    C₂O₂  +  H₆O

                                       LHS                      RHS

Carbon Atoms                  2                            2

Hydrogen Atoms              6                           6

Oxygen Atoms                  3                           3

We have balanced the equation by changing the subscripts. But, we have messed up the chemical composition of compounds and molecules like Oxygen is converted into Ozone.

Therefore, we will change the coefficients (moles) to balance the equation as,

                                C₂H₆  +  7/2 O₂    →    2 CO₂  +  3 H₂O

                                       LHS                      RHS

Carbon Atoms                  2                            2

Hydrogen Atoms              6                           6

Oxygen Atoms                  7                           7

Now, by changing the coefficients we have balanced the equation without disturbing the chemical composition of compounds and molecules.

which statement is true about the part of the electromagnetic spectrum that is visible to the human eye?
IgorLugansk [536]
Hello @Lucysrv18,

How are you doing? In this case, we know that Electromagnetic waves that are visible to the human eye is neither made up of two electromagnetic waves nor three. Therefore B and C is incorrect.

These electromagnetic waves are divided and they are our final two options. For sure, i can say that the wavelengths in a visible electromagnetic wave are not divided into nine, but instead it is divided into 7. 

The answer to your question is A. 

Thank you,
Darian D.
