Rdaioactive  decay results in the formation of a different element. Plutonium decays by emitting alpha emission to form uranium. Thermal energy is emitted as the alpha particles are absorbed and the kinetic energy  is converted to heat. The amount of energy is computed by the formula;
E = mc²
E = 0.000046 × (3 ×10^8) 
 Energy = 4.14 ×10^13 Joules

Dinitrogen pentoxide gas is formed by the reaction of nitrogen trioxide gas and nitrogen dioxide gas balanced equation
leonid [27]

Answer:

Balanced chemical  equation:

NO₂ + NO₃ → N₂O₅

Explanation:

Chemical equation:

NO₂ + NO₃ → N₂O₅

Balanced chemical  equation:

NO₂ + NO₃ → N₂O₅

Nitrogen trioxide gas combine with nitrogen dioxide gas and form nitrogen pentoxide.

This is the simple synthesis reaction in which two substance combine to form a new substance.

Synthesis reaction:

It is the reaction in which two or more simple substance react to give one or more complex product.

General chemical equation:

A + B  → AB

A and B are reactants that combine to form AB product.
