Answer: 226 Subscript 88 Baseline Upper R a right arrow Superscript 222 Subscript 86 Baseline Upper R n + Superscript 4 Subscript 2 Baseline Upper H e
Explanation:
Alpha decay : When a larger nuclei decays into smaller nuclei by releasing alpha particle. In this process, the mass number and atomic number is reduced by 4 and 2 units respectively.
The general representation of alpha decay reaction is:
Representation of Radium decays to form Radon
Thus 226 Subscript 88 Baseline Upper R a right arrow Superscript 222 Subscript 86 Baseline Upper R n + Superscript 4 Subscript 2 Baseline Upper H e represents alpha decay.
Answer:
Lewis structure of polyatomic formate anion.
Explanation:
To draw Lewis structure for any chemical species,
1)Count the total number of valence electrons present in it.
This can be obtained by adding valence electrons of each constituent atom.
2)Arrange those valence electrons in such a way that each atom should attain eight electrons around it to satisfy octet theory.
The structure of formate ion and its Lewis structure are shown below:
HCOO- is the formate ion.
It has total:
1+4+6+6+1 = 18 valence electrons.
Since, hydrogen has one, carbon has four and oxygen has six valence electrons and the charge of the anion is one.
Arrange this 18 electrons in such a way that each atom should get 8 electrons around it.
