Amiraneli [1.4K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Alpha particle

Explanation:

The helium symbol is also used to represent he alpha particles.

For example:

The americium with atomic wight  224 undergo alpha decay and produce

₉₃Np²³⁷ . The alpha particle emitted is also called helium nuclei. During this decay some gamma radiations also produce as a byproduct.

₉₅Am²²⁴   →    ₉₃Np²³⁷ + ₂He⁴

Properties of alpha radiation:

Alpha radiations are emitted as a result of radioactive decay. The atom emit the alpha particles consist of two proton and two neutrons. Which is also called helium nuclei. When atom undergoes the alpha emission the original atom convert into the atom having mass number 4 less than and atomic number 2 less than the starting atom.

Alpha radiations can travel in a short distance.

These radiations can not penetrate into the skin or clothes.

These radiations can be harmful for the human if these are inhaled.

These radiations can be stopped by a piece of paper.

If 1.2 moles of ideal gas occupy a volume of 18.2 L at a pressure of 1.8 ATM what is the temperature of gas in degrees Celsius.
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer: A 59.5 degree celcius

The equation that we will use to solve this problem is :

PV = nRT where:

P is the pressure of gas = 1.8 atm

V is the volume of gas = 18.2 liters

n is the number of moles of gas = 1.2 moles

R is the gas constant =  0.0821

T is the temperature required (calculated in kelvin)

Using these values to substitute in the equation, we find that:

(1.8)(18.2) = (1.2)(0.0821)(T)

T = 332.5 degree kelvin

The last step is to convert the degree kelvin into degree celcius:

T = 332.5 - 273 = 59.5 degree celcius

PLEASE help!!
Alina [70]

Answer:

<h3>KBr + I- ---------> KI + Br-</h3>

Explanation:

Single Displacement reaction is a chemical Reaction in which one element in the salt is replaced with another element

for example,

A-B + C -------> A-C + B

electropositive replaces only electropositive elements from compound. same is true for electronegative element

in first reaction I being electro negative replaces Br from KBr so this is a single displacement reaction
