Answer:

(B) Movement depends on the balance between accumulation and wastage.

Explanation:

A Glacier is accumulation of snow over a particular region over many years. It is balanced by zone of accumulation and zone of wastage. The zone of accumulation is the top of the glacier where the snow or ice accumulates whereas the zone of wastage is the bottom region of the glacier which melts slowly over time. A glacier sustains if the zone of accumulation is greater than the zone of wastage.

A sample of gas occupies 7.80 liters at 425°C? What will be the volume of the gas at 35°C if the pressure does not change?

balandron [24]

From ideal gas equation PV = nRT, V/T = nR/P ==> V/T = constant. Therefore V1/T1 = V2/T2 ==> 7.8/698 = V2/308. V = 3.44L {TEMPERATURE IN KELVIN = 273 + 425 AND 35 = 698 AND 308}

A radioisotope decays to give an alpha particle andPb-208.

oee [108]

Answer: The original element is $_{84}^{212}\textrm{Po}$

Explanation:

Alpha decay is defined as the process in which alpha particle is emitted. In this process, a heavier nuclei decays into a lighter nuclei. The alpha particle released carries a charge of +2 units.

The released alpha particle is also known as helium nucleus.

$_Z^A\textrm{X}\rightarrow _{Z-2}^{A-4}\textrm{Y}+_2^4\alpha$

For the given alpha decay process of an isotope:

$^{Z}_{A}\textrm{X}\rightarrow ^{208}_{82}\textrm{Pb}+_2^4\alpha$

To calculate A:

Total mass on reactant side = total mass on product side

A = 208 + 4

A = 212

To calculate Z:

Total atomic number on reactant side = total atomic number on product side

Z = 82 + 2

Z = 84

The isotopic symbol of unknown element is $_{84}^{212}\textrm{Po}$

Hence, the original element is $_{84}^{212}\textrm{Po}$
