Answer:

Superscript 239 subscript 94 upper P u

(plutonium-239)

Explanation:

In alpha decay, the element subtracts 4 from its mass number and subtracts 2 from its atomic number.

So if we end with Uranium-235, which has an atomic number of 92:

235+4 = 239

92+2 = 94

Element 94 is Pu, plutonium, and its mass could very well be 239 if it's an isotope. So the answer is Superscript 239 subscript 94 upper P u.

What net ionic equation describes the reaction when these solutions are mixed?
GarryVolchara [31]
Balanced chemical reaction:
2Na₃PO₄(aq) + 3CaCl₂(aq) → 6NaCl(aq) + Ca₃(PO₄)₂(s).
Ionic reaction:
6Na⁺(aq) + 2PO₄³⁻(aq) + 3Ca²⁺(aq) + 6Cl⁻(aq) → 6Na⁺(aq) + 6Cl⁻(aq) + Ca₃(PO₄)₂(s).
Net ionic reaction: 2PO₄³⁻(aq) + 3Ca²⁺(aq) → Ca₃(PO₄)₂(s).
<span>(aq) means that substances are dissociated on cations and anions in water.
</span>(s) means solid.

Which compound is most likely to contain ionic bonds? which compound is most likely to contain ionic bonds? mgf2 ch4 n2o?
AnnyKZ [126]
Answer is: MgF₂, magnesium fluoride.
Magnesium fluoride is salt, ionic compound, because magnesium is metal from 2. group of Periodic table of elements and has low ionisation energy and electronegativity, which means it easily lose valence electons, fluorine is nonmetal with greatest electronegativity, which meand it easily gain electron, so magnesium cation (Mg²⁺) and fluorine anion (F⁻) are formed.
