Answer:
ⁿₐX => ²¹⁸₈₄Po
Explanation:
Let ⁿₐX be the isotope.
Thus, the equation can be written as follow:
²²²₈₆Rn —> ⁴₂α + ⁿₐX
Next, we shall determine the value of 'n' and 'a'. This can be obtained as follow:
222 = 4 + n
Collect like terms
222 – 4 = n
218 = n
Thus,
n = 218
86 = 2 + a
Collect like terms
86 – 2 = a
84 = a
Thus,
a = 84
ⁿₐX => ²¹⁸₈₄Po
²²²₈₆Rn —> ⁴₂α + ⁿₐX
²²²₈₆Rn —> ⁴₂α + ²¹⁸₈₄Po
Answer:
It's because removal of electron from an atom, reduces the size of an atom.
Explanation:
When an electron is removed from an atom, it becomes an ion and in this case it will become a postive ion.
When an electron is removed from an atom, the charge balance of an atom is disturbed and positive charge increases in comparison to the negative charge. This results in increase nuclear (positive) charge which exerts greater attraction on the remaining electrons and as a result the remaining electrons are more strongly attracted by the nucleus and in this way the atomic size is decreased. Due to this increased nuclear attraction and reduced atomic size, it bcomes difficult to remove more electeon from the positively charged ion of reduced size. This is the reason that each successive ionization of electron requires a greater amount of energy.
The ionization energy has inverse relation with the size or radius of an atom. This also justifies the reason that why each successive ionization of an electron requires greater amount of energy.
It is called a cycle because it is repetitive, therefore making it a cycle (or almost never ending)
