Answer: -
When bismuth-212 undergoes alpha decay, it becomes ²⁰⁸Tl
Explanation: -
Mass number of ²¹²Bi = 212
Atomic number of ²¹²Bi = 83
When alpha decay occurs the mass number decreases by 4 and the atomic number decreases by 2.
Mass number of daughter = 212 - 4 = 208
Atomic number of daughter = 83 - 2 = 81
It is the atomic number of Thallium Tl.
Thus the daughter nucleide is ²⁰⁸Tl.
Answer: C
Explanation: Pesticides protect our crops, but some studies show that they cause consumers to gain weight:)
The molar mass of CO2 can be calculated as follows;
CO2 — 12 + (16x2) = 12+ 32 = 44 g
Therefore molar mass of CO2 is 44 g/mol
In 44 g of CO2 there’s 1 mol of CO2
Then 1 g of CO2 there’s 1/44 mol of CO2
Therefore in 78.3 g of CO2 there’s — 1/44 x 78.3 =1.78 mol of CO2
The Ninhydrin test is not effective to detect high molecular weight proteins as the steric hindrance limits the ninhydrin from reaching the α-amino groups.
Yes. When two things are directly prortional, that means that as one increases, the other increases at the same rate. So, say you have a 2kg object at an acceleration of 2m/s^2. The force would be 4N. If you have a 3kg object at an acceleration of 2m/s^2, the force would be 6N. If two things are inversely proportional, that means that as one thing increases the other decreases at the same rate. A good example of this is in a chemical reaction. If you increase the surface area of the reactants, the reaction time decreases. They are inversely proportional.
