Answer:
Option B is correct. A nuclear alpha decay
Explanation:
Step 1
This equation is a nuclear reaction. So it can be an alpha decay or a beta decay
An α-particle is a helium nucleus. It contains 2 protons and 2 neutrons, for a mass number of 4.
During α-decay, an atomic nucleus emits an alpha particle. It transforms (or decays) into an atom with an atomic number 2 less and a mass number 4 less.
Thus, radium-226 decays through α-particle emission to form radon-222 according to the equation that is showed.
A Beta decay occurs when, in a nucleus with too many protons or too many neutrons, one of the protons or neutrons is transformed into the other.
Option B is correct. A nuclear alpha decay
Solution : An oxidation reduction (redox) reaction is a type of chemical reaction that involves a transfer of electrons between tow species an oxidaion reductin reaction is any chemical reaction in which the oxidation number of a molecule atom or ion changes by gaining or losing an electron
Answer:
-100 kJ
Explanation:
We can solve this problem by applying the first law of thermodynamics, which states that:
where:
is the change in internal energy of a system
Q is the heat absorbed/released by the system (it is positive if absorbed by the system, negative if released by the system)
W is the work done by the system (it is positive if done by the system, negative if done on the system)
For the system in this problem we have:
W = +147 kJ is the work done by the system
Q = +47 kJ is the heat absorbed by the system
So , its change in internal energy is:
B. All atoms of silver have the same atomic number but different numbers of neutrons in the nucleus.
