Na+ + e --> Na
2Cl- --> Cl2 -2e-
Isoelectronic species are ions or elements that have equal number of electrons. From the root word, electron of the word isoelectronic. On the other hand, isotructural species are compounds with the same structures.Hope this answers the question.
The daughter isotope : Radon-222 (Rn-222).
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
Radium (Ra-226) undergoes an alpha decay
Required
The daughter nuclide
Solution
Radioactivity is the process of unstable isotopes to stable isotopes by decay, by emitting certain particles,
- alpha α particles ₂He⁴
- beta β ₋₁e⁰ particles
- gamma particles ₀γ⁰
- positron particles ₁e⁰
- neutron ₀n¹
The decay reaction uses the principle: the sum of the atomic number and mass number before and after decay are the same
Radium (Ra-226) : ₈₈²²⁶Ra
Alpha particles : ₂⁴He
So Radon-226 emits alpha α particles ₂He⁴ , so the atomic number decreases by 2, mass number decreases by 4
The reaction :
₈₈²²⁶Ra ⇒ ₂⁴He + ₈₆²²²Rn
Answer:
C: The atoms involved in the chemical reaction
Explanation:
In a chemical reaction, when we balance it up, the number of moles or atoms on the left side must equal that on the right hand side. And thus, the mass is found in the atoms involved in such chemical reaction.
The answers is A. Reales energy stored in chemical bonds
