Evgen [1.6K]2 years ago
8 0

During the beta radioactive decay process of a nucleus, there is a very high energy positron or electron is released. This particle that is released is also known as beta radiation.

Explanation:

Beta radiation is a current of electrons released at a rate exceeding the speed of light, with a kinetic energy  between 0.2 MeV and 3.2 MeV. Due to their lower mass which is approximately 5.5×10−4 amu (9.130×10^(−24)g), interactions between β-particles and the atoms of pass-through materials are much less frequent than the interactions between 5-007-particles: less than 200 ion pairs are typically formed in each centimetre of air passage.

A burner on a stove produces temperature. thermal energy. hotness. fire energy.
Aleksandr [31]

Question:

The options are;

a. Temperature

b. Thermal Energy

c. Hotness

d. Fire Energy

Answer:

The correct option is;

b. Thermal energy

Explanation:

A burner on a stove produces thermal energy which is used to raise the temperature of the metal container (kettle, pot or pans) in which items are placed for heating.

Thermal energy is the internal energy of the system given off as heat which when transferred from one body to another causes the temperature of the receiving body to rise. Thermal energy in a burner is given off when the gaseous fuel reacts or burns in the presence of or with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water vapor in an exothermic reaction.

4C + 5H₂ + 13/2O₂ (-125 kJ) → C₄H₁₀ + O₂ → CO₂ + H₂O (-2877 kJ).

vichka [17]

Answer:

3.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, it is convenient to write the chemical reaction as:

CaSO_4+AlCl_3\rightarrow CaCl_2+Al_2(SO_4)_3

Which balanced turns out:

3CaSO_4+2AlCl_3\rightarrow 3CaCl_2+Al_2(SO_4)_3

Thus the number that should be in front of the calcium sulfate is 3 in order to balance the reaction.

Best regards.
