When an atomic nucleus emits an alpha particle it decay into an atom with atomic number 2 less and mass number 4 less. Thus Thorium 230 decay as follows.
230 90Th -------> 226 88Th + 4 2 He
thorium is in the atomic number 90 thus it during alpha decay it reduces to atomic number 88 while its 230 mass number reduces to 226
Answer:
A
Explanation:
Oceanic crust is thinner and more likely to sink
Answer:
d and e
Explanation:
We have 5 solutions with different molar concentrations, that is, the quotient between the number of moles of solute and the liters of solution. This can be expressed as mol/L or M. The most dilute would be the one having the less number of moles of solute per liters of solution, that is, solution d or e, which have the same concentration. If we order them from the most diluted to the most concentrated, we get:
d = e < a < b < c
Answer:
d
Explanation:
Carbohydrates are compounds containing carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Therefore, a is true.
An empirical formula is the simplest ratio of atoms present in a compound. Therefore, C2H4O2 and C3H6O3, (if you simplified them like you would a fraction) would be CH2O. Therefore b is correct,
They also have the same % composition, with a ratio of 1 carbon : 2 hydrogen : 1 oxygen. Therefore, c is correct.
Since a, b and c are all correct, the answer is d, all of the above are true.
