The nuclear reaction occurring is known as alpha-decay, and during this process, an alpha particle is released from a heavy radioactive nucleus to form a lighter more stable nucleus. The alpha particle is equivalent to a helium nucleus, which means it contains 2 protons and two neutrons (net charge of +2)
The decay equation is:
Rn → Po + α

Which of the following are lost or gained during a nuclear reaction? (5 points)
jeyben [28]

D

Nuclear reaction involves the nuclei of atoms. The nucleus can either split (as is the case with fission) of fuse as is the case with nuclear fusion. Remember the main particles in the nucleus are protons and neutrons.

Explanation:

In nuclear fission, atomic nuclei split into lighter atoms through loss of protons and neutrons (such as through loos of a beta particles - 2 protons and 2 neutrons). In the case of fusion, two atomic nuclei fuse under pressure (hence adding neutrons and protons) to create heavier atoms (2 hydrogens can fuse to form a helium). Electrons are not involved in nuclear reactions. Electrons are mainly involved in chemical reactions.

Picture this in your mind as you read it: You weigh an empty, clean, dry beaker on the balance (scale). It weighs 32.15 grams. Y
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

2.25 g

Explanation:

The mass of the solid X must be the total mass (beaker + solid X) less than the mass of the beaker. Then:

mass of the solid X = 34.40 - 32.15

mass of the solid X = 2.25 g

The difference of 0.25 g must occur for several problems: an incorrect weight in the balance, the configuration of the balance, the solid can be hydrophilic and absorbs water, and others.

Which color of light has the greatest energy
ozzi

Answer:

violet

Explanation:

Waves with a short wavelength have the most energy. Red waves have a relatively long wavelength (in the 700 nm range), and violet waves are much shorter - roughly half that. Because violet waves have the shortest wavelength of the visible light spectrum, they carry the most energy (google)
