What happens in nuclear decay?

Chemistry
1 answer:
NARA [144]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Nuclear decay occurs when the nucleus of an atom is unstable and spontaneously emits energy in the form of radiation. The result is that the nucleus changes into the nucleus of one or more other elements. These daughter nuclei have a lower mass and are more stable (lower in energy) than the parent nucleus...

Why must power plants spend so much money and be so cautious in dealing with these materials?
shepuryov [24]
If you are referring to nuclear power plants and radioactive materials, then there is a high necessity to be cautious and stay safe because only by being safe you can prevent accidents like those caused in Ukraine and Japan. Unlike other types of power plants whose destruction in case of an accident can relatively easily be contained, nuclear power plants are extremely difficult to manage if things go out of hand since you can destroy the air around it, the water, the food by ruining the soil, and many other things.

What happens to a glass of sugar solution when sugar is added to it?
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

The molarity of the solution increases.

Explanation:

Molarity is the measure of the concentration of the solute in the solution. In this case, the solvent is the sugar solution and the solute is the sugar.

If sugar is ADDED to the already sugary solution, then there would be more sugar. Therefore, the sugar (solute) would increase in number.

This means that the answer is the third choice: The molarity of the solution increases.

The answer would not be the first or second choice because there isn't anything in the question that implies water. It just says sugar solution.

The answer is not the last choice because the sugar concentration does not decrease after you have added more sugar to it. It increases.

Artist 52 [7]
Adenine pairs with Thymine and Guanine pairs with Cytosine. I remember this by the car (C) goes in the garage (G). Then A and T are the only ones left, so they pair together.
