When a beta particle<span> is emitted from the nucleus the nucleus has one more proton and one less neutron. This means the atomic mass number remains unchanged and the atomic number increases by 1.
We can also say that </span>beta decay<span> is a type of radioactive </span>decay<span> in which a proton is transformed into a neutron inside an atomic nucleus.
</span><span>a) converts a neutron into a proton</span>
A thermochemical reaction is a chemical reaction with an additional information of the heat of reaction. For example, this is the thermochemical reaction for the combustion of hydrogen gas:
H₂ (g) + 1/2 O₂ (g) → H₂O (l) ΔH = -285.8 kJ
The coefficient 1/2 represents the number of moles of O₂ needed to combust 1 mole of H₂ gas in order to yield one mole of water.
After 1 half life, 1/2
After 2 half lives, 1/4
After 3 half lives, 1/8
