Answer: Mercury-194 is an unstable isotope and hence is radioactive.
Explanation: Mercury-194 is an isotope of mercury, having formula
Number of protons in this isotope = 80
Number of neutrons in this isotope = 114
This isotope is radioactive in nature and under decay process by Electron Capture.
Electron capture reactions are the reactions in which a proton in a nucleus absorbs an electron and convert it into neutron. The resulting nucleus will have a decreased atomic number and same atomic mass.
Reaction for electron capture of mercury-194 follows:
A chemical bond that involves the transfer of electrons from a metal to a nonmetal and thus forms ions and the atoms in the molecule are attracted towards each other through electrostatic force of attraction are said be ionic bond. In short, the bond formed between the two oppositely charged ions.
In salt, the compound formed between sodium and chlorine is sodium chloride having molecular formula where sodium is a metal and chlorine is the non-metal. The formation of the compound takes place by transfer of an electron from sodium thus forming a cation of formula
to chlorine which gains electron and thus results in an anion formation having formula
. The force of attraction between these oppositely charged ions that helds them together and results in formation of
compound is electrostatic force of attraction.
Hence in salt, the nature of bond between sodium and chlorine is ionic.
