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.

The sodium atom loses an electron to form a sodium ion (Na+). Which statement is correct with respect to its atomic radius?
mixer [17]
Its atomic radius increases because there is less electron shielding after the sodium loses one e-.  Sodium is a nonmetal which means it forms an anion. Anions always increase from their original atomic radius

Assoli18 [71]

Biphenyl will have a higher R value than the Methyl Orange.

Explanation:

Biphenyl is a aromatic hydrocarbon and it is a nonpolar molecule.

Methyl Orange is a organic compound with a -SO₃⁻Na⁺ polar functional group which will induce a high polarity in the compound.

You may find the chemical structures of both molecules in the attached picture.

Column chromatography, which use as stationary phase silica gel, is a good technique for separation of the Methyl Orange from Biphenyl.

Being a non-polar molecule,  Biphenyl will have a higher R value than the Methyl Orange.

To separate them you use a appropriate solvent as eluent, as exemple chloroform, and Biphenyl will elute first from the column and after that, as a separate phase, Methyl Orange will elute thus separating them.
