Radioactive decay is the means by which unstable nuclei move towards stability by emitting energy and subatomic particles. The types are:

Alpha particle decay:
Alpha particles, which are identical to helium nuclei, are released. The atomic mass of the substance decreases by 4 units and the atomic number decreases by 2.

Beta particle decay:
These particles are similar to mass as an electron, and during this decay, the atomic mass remains the same but atomic number increases by 1.

Gamma ray decay:
Gamma rays are released, which are high energy electromagnetic waves, by some radioactive nuclei to rid the excess energy they have.

The product of radioactive decay :

  • ₂He⁴
  • ₋₁e⁰
  • γ
  • ₁e⁰
<h3>Further explanation </h3>

The atomic nucleus can experience decay into 2 particles or more due to the instability of its atomic nucleus.

Usually radioactive elements have an unstable atomic nucleus.

The main particles are emitted by radioactive elements so that they generally decay are alpha (α), beta (β) and gamma (γ) particles

General formulas used in decay:

\large {\boxed {Nt = No. (\frac {1} {2}) ^ {\frac {T} {t1 / 2}}}}

Information:

T = duration of decay

t1 / 2 = elemental half-life

N₀ = the number of initial radioactive atoms

Nt = the number of radioactive atoms left after decaying during T time

At the core, the reaction applies the law of eternity

• 1. energy

the energy before and after the reaction is the same

• 2. atomic number

the number of atomic numbers before and after the same

• 3. mass number

the number of mass numbers before and after the same

Particles that play a role in core reactions include

• alpha α particles ₂He⁴

atomic number decreases by 2, mass number decreases by 4

• beta β ₋₁e⁰ particles

atomic number remains the same , mass number decreases by -1

• gamma particles γ

Core reactions that occur usually release high energy

• positron particles ₁e⁰

atomic number remains the same , mass number decreases by +1

In general, the core reaction equation can be written:

<h3>X + a ---> Y + b + Q </h3>

 

X = target core

a = particle fired

Y = new core

b = the particle produced

Q = heat energy

or can be written simply

X (a, b) Y

. What is a carbonyl group? Draw the carbonyl groups that are characteristic of aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, and esters
Elan Coil [88]

Answer :

  • Carbonyl group : It is a functional group composed of a carbon atom that double bonded to oxygen atom. It is represented as C=O

Carboxylic group : It is the class of organic compound in which the carboxylic (-COOH) group is attached to a hydrocarbon is known as carboxylic.

The general formula of carboxylic is, C_nH_{2n+1}COOH. According to the IUPAC naming, the carboxylic are named as alkanoic acids.

Aldehyde group : It is the class of organic compound in which the (-CHO) group is attached to a hydrocarbon is known as aldehyde.

The general representation of aldehyde is, R-CHO. According to the IUPAC naming, the aldehyde are named as alkanals.

Ketone group : It is the class of organic compound in which the (-CO) group is directly attached to the two alkyl group of carbon is known as ketone.

The general representation of ketone is, R-CO-R^'. According to the IUPAC naming, the ketone are named as alkanone.

Ester group : It is the class of organic compound in which the (-COO) group is directly attached to the two alkyl group of carbon is known as ester.

The general representation of ester is, R-COO-R^'. According to the IUPAC naming, the ester are named as alkyl alkanoate.

Arturiano [62]
A. Fe2O3 + 3CO= 2Fe+3CO2
Here element oxidised is CO or Carbon Monoxide, since oxygen is added.

B. 2HCl+2KMnO4+3H2C2O4=6CO2+2MnO2+2KCl+4H2O
Here Element reduced is 3H2C2O4, since Hydrogen is being added. Also KMnO4 is reduced, since Oxygen is removed.

The hydrogen-line emission spectrum includes a line at a wavelength of 434 nm. What is the energy of this radiation? (h= 6.626 x
Andrews [41]
Wavelength = 434nm = 434 x 10⁻⁹m
planck's constant = <span>h= 6.626 x 10 ⁻³⁴ J
E =?
by using the formula;
E = hc /</span>λ
value for c is 3 x 10⁸ m/s
E = (6.626 x 10 ⁻³⁴ J)(3 x 10⁸ m/s) / 434 x 10⁻⁹m
E = 1.9878 x 10⁻²⁵ / 434 x 10⁻⁹m
E = 4.58 x 10⁻¹⁹ joules
