B)a neutron-to-proton ratio of 1:2 in a large nucleus

C)a nucleus that contains 90 protons and 100 neutrons

E)any isotope of the element uranium, which has atomic number 92

Explanation:

Radioactive decay process takes place between the nucleons of an atom. Some atoms can split on their own or when bombarded with some energetic particles.

  • Every atomic nucleus have specific proton/neutron ratio that ensures their stability.
  • This allows their nucleus to be stable.
  • Any nucleus with a proton/ratio combination different from its stability ratio will be unstable.
  • This can be the case of too many protons or neutrons.
  • Such atoms will be unstable and split into one or more other nuclei with the emission of small particles of matter.
  • All nuclei heavier than Bi-239 are naturally unstable and radioactive.

The overall charge of an atom is ________ if the number of electrons is ________ than the number of protons.
miss Akunina [59]
The overall charge of an atom is positive if the number of electrons is less than the number of protons. Electrons are negatively charged particles while protons are positively charged particles. If there are less electrons as compared to the number of protons in an atom, then naturally the overall charge of the atom would be positive since there are excess protons. Another case would be that the overall charge of an atom is negative if the number of electrons is greater than the number of protons. An atom having more electrons than the number of the protons present would lead to a negative value of the charge since there are excess electrons.

How many ml of a 0.50m solution of hno3 solution are needed to make 500 ml of 0.15m hno3
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

150.0 mL.

Explanation:

  • It is known that the no. of millimoles of HNO₃ before dilution = the no. of millimoles of HNO₃ after dilution.

∵ (MV) before dilution = (MV) after dilution.

<em>∴ V before dilution = (MV) after dilution / M before dilution</em> = (0.15 M)(500.0 mL)/(0.50 M) = <em>150.0 mL.</em>

Law Incorporation [45]
Thermoplastics and thermosetting polymers Examples include: polyethylene (PS) and polyvinyl choline (PVC). Common thermoplastics range from 20,000 to 50,000 amu, while thermosets are assumed to have infinite molecular weight.

What is the type of mutation represented by the amino acid sequence below?
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

Substitution mutation

Explanation:

A substitution mutation is a type of mutation in which one or more nucleotide base is replaced by another in a sequence. This will result in the replacement of one or more amino acid in the amino acid sequence.

This is the case in this question where the original amino acid sequence was given as: Leucine – Alanine – Glycine – Leucine. After mutation, the following mutated sequence was produced: Leucine – Alanine – Valine – Leucine.

As illustrated above, one would notice that there is replacement of GLYCINE amino acid by VALINE in the mutated sequence, hence, it is an example of SUBSTITUTION MUTATION.
