Its A. because it measures the rate of the decay of the isotope
Answer:
Decreases
Explanation:
An element's oxidation number decreases because it gained electrons.
<span>So to make it clear let's break the equation down species by species and assess the number of each species on bothe sides of the equation:
2C</span>₈H₈ + 25O₂ → 8CO₂ + 18H₂<span>O
LHS: C - 16 RHS: C - 8
H - 16 H - 36
O - 50 O - 34
Thus based on that it is evident that the equation is not quite balanced. This therefore means a "</span><span>No, because the number of carbon, hydrogen & oxygen atoms on both sides of the equation are not equal."
</span>The actual balance equation would be C₈H₈ + 10O₂ → 8CO₂ + 4H₂O
This is called adaptation. An example would be a polar bear with white fur. They have this to be more efficent hunters, as they use it as a type of camouflage in order to sneak up on prey. Brown bear use this in the same way but their environment requires them to be brown in order to blend in beter with trees. So basicly adaptation
