Answer:</h3>
8 alpha particles
4 beta particles
<h3>
Explanation:</h3>
<u>We are given;</u>
- Neptunium-237
- Thallium-205
- Neptunium-237 undergoes beta and alpha decay to form Thallium-205.
We are required to determine the number of beta and alpha particles produced to complete the decay series.
- We need to know that when a radioisotope emits an alpha particle the mass number reduces by 4 while the atomic number decreases by 2.
- When a beta particle is emitted the mass number of the radioisotope increases by 1 while the atomic number remains the same.
In this case;
Neptunium-237 has an atomic number 93, while,
Thallium-205 has an atomic number 81.
Therefore;
²³⁷₉₃Np → x⁴₂He + y⁰₋₁e + ²⁰⁵₈₁Ti
We can get x and y
237 = 4x + y(0) + 205
237-205 = 4x
4x = 32
x = 8
On the other hand;
93 = 2x + (-y) + 81
but x = 8
93 = 16 -y + 81
y = 4
Therefore, the complete decay equation is;
²³⁷₉₃Np → 8⁴₂He + 4⁰₋₁e + ²⁰⁵₈₁Ti
Thus, Neptunium-237 emits 8 alpha particles and 4 beta particles to become Thallium-205.

Sodium oxide + Water= Sodium hydroxide
The reaction between the magnesium, Mg, and the hydrochloric acid, HCl is given in the equation below,
Mg + 2HCl --> H2 + MgCl2
The number of moles of HCl that is needed for the reaction is calculated below.
n = (0.4681 g Mg)(1 mol Mg/24.305 g Mg)(2 mol HCl/1 mol Mg)
n = 0.0385 mols HCl
From the given concentration, we calculate for the required volume.
V = 0.0385 mols HCl/(0.650 mols/L)
V = 0.05926 L or 59.26 mL
<em>Answer: 59.26 mL of HCl</em>
