Idk if this will help but try quizlet
Answer: 0.70g
The half-life of iron-53 would be 8.51 minutes. So, in 25.53 minutes would be equal to: 25.53 min/ (8.51 minutes/ half-life)= 3 half-life.
Every half-life will reduce the original weight into half. So, the final weight would be:
final weight = original weight * 1/2 ^(time)
final weight = 5.6g * (1/2)^(3 half-life)
final weight = 5.6g * 1/8= 0.7g
1. The atomic number deceases by one and the atomic mass is unchanged - β⁺/positron emission. In this a proton is converted to a neutron, hence no net change in mass. Since a proton is converted to neutron, the daughter nuclide's proton number /atomic number decreases by 1. Then atomic number decreases by 1 and no change in mass.
2.the atomic number decreases by two, and the atomic mass decreases by four - alpha decay / ⁴₂α. alpha particles have 2 neutrons and 2 protons. Since 2 protons and 2 neutrons are emitted, the mass of the nuclide decreases by 4. Since 2 protons have been emitted, this results in atomic number decreasing by 2.
3.<span>the atomic number increases by one, and the atomic mass remains unchanged. - </span>β⁻ beta decay. In this type of decay - beta decay , a neutron is converted to a proton, therefore no net change in mass. Since a proton is formed, atomic number increases by 1. Therefore atomic number increases by 1 and no change in mass.
I am pretty sure it is d if i am wrong please tell me
It would be D!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
