<span><span>1) Calculate the total number of nucleons (protons and neutrons) in the nuclide
<span>--> If the number of nucleons is even, there is a good chance it is stable.

2) Are there a magic number of protons or neutrons?
</span>--> 2,8,20,28,50,82,114 (protons), 126 (neutrons), 184 (neutrons) are particularly stable in nuclei.

3) Calculate the N/Z ratio.
<span>--> Use the belt of stability (Figure 1) to determine the best way to get from an unstable nucleus to a stable nucleus</span></span></span>
Answer:
C
Explanation:
'Ordered Arrangement' basically means that it is a solid at room temperature. Room temperature is approximately 15-20C so we are looking for melting and boiling points that are above room temperature so it hasn't/can't melt or boil at room temperature and would therefore be solid. Option C is the only one where both points are temperatures above room temperature therefore option C is the only one where the substance would be in an 'ordered arrangement' at room temperature.
Hope this helped!
Electrons in atoms can act as our charge carrier, because every electron carries a negative charge. If we can free an electron from an atom and force it to move, we can create electricity.
Although the moon's distance from earth varies each month because of its eccentric orbit, the moon's mean distance from Earth is nonetheless increasing at the rate of about 3.8 centimeters (1.5 inches) per year
