Answer:

What is an mass number?

Mass number is an integer (whole number) equal to the sum of the number of protons and neutrons of an atomic nucleus. In other words, it is the sum of the number of nucleons in an atom. Mass number is often denoted using a capital letter A. Contrast this with the atomic number, which is simply the number of protons.

AlexFokin [52]

Plants use a process called photosynthesis to make food. During photosynthesis, plants trap light energy with their leaves. Plants use the energy of the sun to change water and carbon dioxide into a sugar called glucose. Glucose is used by plants for energy and to make other substances like cellulose and starch.

Balanced nuclear equation forces the alpha decay Po-210
Serjik [45]

Answer:

_{84}^{210}\text{Po} \longrightarrow \, _{82}^{206}\text{Pb} \, + \, _{2}^{4}\text{He}

Explanation:

Your unbalanced nuclear equation is:

_{84}^{210}\text{Po} \longrightarrow \, _{x}^{y}\text{Z} + \, _{2}^{4}\text{He}

The main point to remember in balancing nuclear equations is that the sums of the superscripts and the subscripts must be the same on each side of the equation.  

Then

 84 = x + 2, so x =  84 - 2 =   82

210 = y + 4, so y = 210 - 4 = 206

Element 82 is lead, so the nuclear equation becomes

_{84}^{210}\text{Po} \longrightarrow \, _{82}^{206}\text{Pb} \, + \, _{2}^{4}\text{He}

Water has a high specific heat because: Select one: a. it is a poor insulator b. hydrogen bonds must be broken to raise its temp
Crank
<h2>The required "option is b) hydrogen bonds must be broken to raise its temperature.</h2>

Explanation:

  • Water has high specific heat due to hydrogen bonds present in it.
  • The Ionisation of water does not affect the specific heat of the water.
  • On decreasing the temperature, there is the formation of bonds hence option (d) is wrong.
  • On increasing the temperature, there is the breaking of bonds hence option (b) is correct.
