Answer:

37S

Explanation:

Radioactivity is the spontaneous emission of particles and / or electromagnetic radiation by unstable atomic nuclei leading to their disintegration.

We have two main types of radioactivity: radioactive decay and artificial transmutation.

In radioactive decay ( natural radioactivity ), a naturally occurring radioactive element like Uranium-238 disintegrates or decays into more stable isotopes with the emission of particles and/or radiation.

23892U = 23490Th + 42He

Artificial transmutation is the collision of two particles where one particle captures the other used to bombard it. There is subsequent production of isotopes similar or different from the bombarded particle. Neutrons, alpha particles ( helium nucleus ), electrons, protons can be used to bombard elements.

147N + 42He = 178O + 11P

For the above question which is artificial transmutation, the reaction equation is

4018Ar + 10n = 3716S + 42He

So, the neutron capture by Argon-40 will produce a radioisotope Sulphur-37 with the emission of an alpha particle.

Which statement describes a 0.01 M LiOH( aq) solution?
Marizza181 [45]
Before answering the question, one should first calculate the pH for given concentration of LiOH.

As LiOH ionizes as,

                                 LiOH    →     Li⁺  +  OH⁻

So, the concentration of OH⁻  =  [OH⁻]  =  0.01
Also,
                               pOH  =  -log [OH⁻]

                               pOH  =  -log [0.01]

                               pOH  =  2
Whereas,
                               POH  +  pH  =  14
Or,
                               pH  =  14 - 2

                               pH  =  12
Result:
           
As pH is greater than 7, so the solution is Basic.

When you consume food, it goes through mechanical and chemical digestion in the mouth and is then transported to the
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

Chemical digestion

Explanation:

The type of digestion taking place within the stomach is chemical digestion. When food reacts with stomach acids and other enzymes, a reaction takes place which reduces the food into simpler bits.

  • The stomach contains strong digestive acids.
  • Cells in the stomach secrete hydrochloric acid to further aid the digestion of the food.
  • This way, complex organic molecules becomes broken down into simpler units.
