Answer:
M has lost an electron, one electron, and given it to Mt
Explanation:
Gamma rays consist of pure energy. Beta particles consist of one electron that is released at high speeds from an unstable nucleus and an alpha particle is a helium nucleus.
We know that Gamma rays consist of pure energy because, during Gamma decay, the atomic and mass numbers remain unchanged. Therefore, only energy is emitted.
Gamma rays are weakly ionising, however, they are strongly penetrating and thick concrete or a few centimetres of aluminium is needed to stop them.
Answer:
Benzoic acid
Explanation:
The strength of an acid is principally a measure of its dissociative capabilities in aqueous solutions. While strong acids dissociate completely in solution, weak acids dissociates only partially.
The relative strength of an acid can be obtained from its pKa value. The pKa value is the negative logarithm of the concentration of the Ka value.
Stronger acids have a pKa value usually negative. This is a pointer to the fact that the lower the pKa value, the stronger the strength of the acid in question.
Relatively therefore, Benzoic acid is stronger than acetic acid because it has a lesser value for pKa
The answer is, C: both Erin and Chris are correct.
