The daughter isotope : Radon-222 (Rn-222).
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
Radium (Ra-226) undergoes an alpha decay
Required
The daughter nuclide
Solution
Radioactivity is the process of unstable isotopes to stable isotopes by decay, by emitting certain particles,
- alpha α particles ₂He⁴
- beta β ₋₁e⁰ particles
- gamma particles ₀γ⁰
- positron particles ₁e⁰
- neutron ₀n¹
The decay reaction uses the principle: the sum of the atomic number and mass number before and after decay are the same
Radium (Ra-226) : ₈₈²²⁶Ra
Alpha particles : ₂⁴He
So Radon-226 emits alpha α particles ₂He⁴ , so the atomic number decreases by 2, mass number decreases by 4
The reaction :
₈₈²²⁶Ra ⇒ ₂⁴He + ₈₆²²²Rn
The answer is B- 124 degrees
Temperature of somewhere.
Answer:
H₂S; CO₂; SiH₄
Explanation:
London dispersion forces are larger in molecules that are large and have more atoms or electrons.
A. H₂O or H₂S
H₂S. S is below O in the Periodic Table, so it is the larger atom. Its electrons are more polarizable.
B. CO₂ or CO
CO₂. CO₂ has more atoms. It is also linear, so the molecules can get close to each other and maximize the attractive forces.
C. CH₄ or SiH₄
CH₄. Si is below C in the Periodic Table, so it is the larger atom. Its electrons are more polarizable.
