Correct answer is B.
Explanation:
Took the test and got this right. :)
Answer:
See Explanation
Explanation:
Metallic bonds involve attraction between electrons and positively charged metal ions. The metals are ionized and electrons form a sea of valence electrons. These loosely bound electrons surround the nuclei of the metals.
The presence of this sea of electrons explains the fact that metals conduct electricity and heat due to the free valence electrons.
Due to the nature of the bonding between metal atoms,metals are malleable and ductile.
Due to the strong electrostatic interaction between metal ions and electrons, the metallic bond is very strong and is very difficult to break thereby accounting for the greater strength of metals as the size of the metallic ion decreases.
<u>Answer:</u> The original element is 
<u>Explanation:</u>
Alpha decay is defined as the process in which alpha particle is emitted. In this process, a heavier nuclei decays into a lighter nuclei. The alpha particle released carries a charge of +2 units.
The released alpha particle is also known as helium nucleus.

For the given alpha decay process of an isotope:

<u>To calculate A:</u>
Total mass on reactant side = total mass on product side
A = 208 + 4
A = 212
<u>To calculate Z:</u>
Total atomic number on reactant side = total atomic number on product side
Z = 82 + 2
Z = 84
The isotopic symbol of unknown element is 
Hence, the original element is
