Answer: ^{218}_{84}Po \rightarrow ^{218}_{85}At + ^{0}_{-1}e is the correct equation for beta decay.

Explanation:

When a beta particle, that is, ^{0}_{-1}e is emitted in a radioactive decay then it is known as beta decay.

Therefore, beta decay of Polonium-218 is as follows.

^{218}_{84}Po \rightarrow ^{218}_{85}At + ^{0}_{-1}e

Therefore, we can conclude that ^{218}_{84}Po \rightarrow ^{218}_{85}At + ^{0}_{-1}e is the correct equation for the given beta decay.

What is the volume of 6.50g of gold if the density of gold is 19.3g/ml?
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

0.33 ml

Explanation:

Formula for density: p = m/V (where p is <em>density</em>, m is <em>mass</em> and V is <em>volume</em>)

So, by applying the above formula:

19.3 =  \frac{6.5}{v}

v = 0.33 \: ml

The diagram below shows the distance traveled by two light waves in 1 second.
Masja [62]

The correct answer should be D) The frequency of Wave 2 is double the frequency of Wave 1.

This is because the frequency is how many waves there is in an amount of time, so 10 waves in 1 second has double the frequency of 5 waves in 1 second.

Hope that helps!
