The correct answer is A. Alkali metals.
I hope this helped
Fluorine 20 (F - Atomic number 9 and atomic mass 20). Firstly we need to know what is beta decay. Beta decay occurs when one neutron changes into a proton and an electron therefore the atomic mass will remain the same as even though we loose a neutron it is replaced by a proton, the atomic number is always raised by 1 when one beta decay occurs. The produced electron is shot out of the nucleus at an incredible speed. This speedy electron we call a beta particle.
Ok now the reaction.
20 20 0
F -> Ne + e
9 10 -1
Remember the atomic number determines the nature of the element ( i.e what elemnt it is).
Hope this helps :).
<span>Feb 19, 2014 - The units of k tell you that this is a second order reaction. So, to solve this, you need to use the integrated rate law for a 2nd order reaction: 1/[A] = kt + 1/[A]o 1/[A] = 0.540/Ms (835 s) + 1/0.00640 1/[A] = 607 [A] = 1.65X10^-3 M.</span><span>

<span>C6H12 = 6x12 + 6x1 = 78.
The equation indicates that 2x78 = 156g benzene will produce 6542kJ.
Using proportions you can then calculate that
x/6542kJ = 7.9g / 156g
x = 331.3kJ = 331300J.
heat = mass x ΔT x 4.18J/g°
ΔT = 331300J / (5691g x 4.18J/g°) = 13.9°
final temp = 21 + 14° = 35°C</span>
Mg gained mass because it went from being a single element (on the reactant side) to being a molecule (on the product side).
