Atomic mass of the parent element =247,
atomic number of the parent element = 95
In the process of β-decay electron leaves the nucleus, so instead of one neutron we get one proton.
Mass of proton≈mass of neutron,
so atomic mass will not change.
Charge of proton =+1, and charge of neutron = 0.
So, we will get atomic number increased by one.
New element (daughter) will have
atomic mass = 247,
and atomic number= 95+1=96
Number 95 - Am (parent),
number 96 - Cm(daughter),
So, from Am-247 we will get Cm-247.
Answer:
Half life is the time taken by a radio active isotope to reduce by half of its original amount. Radium-226 has a half life of 1602 years meaning that it would take 1602 years for a mass of radium to reduce by half.
Number of half lives in 9612 years = 9612/1602 = 6 half lives
New mass = Original mass x (1/2)n where n is the number of half lives.
Therefore, New mass= 500 x (1/2)∧6
= 500 x 0.015625
= 7.8125 g
Hence the mass of radium after 9612 years will be 7.8125 grams.
Explanation:
For every 1 molecule of Magnesium hydroxide or Mg(OH)2 there will be 2 molecules of HCl neutralized.
If molar mass of magnesium hydroxide is 58.3197g/mol, the amount of mol in 5.50 g magnesium hydroxide should be: 5.50g/ (<span>58.3197g/mol)= 0.0943mol.
Then, the amount of HCl molecule neutralized would be: 2* </span>0.0943mol= 0.18861 mol
If molar mass of HCl is 36.46094 g/mol, the mass of the molecule would be: 0.18861 mol* 36.46094g/mol = 6.88grams
The name of this alkane is with central carbons are bonded to c h 3 is 2-methylbutane.

What is alkane?</h3>
Alkanes belong to the family of saturated hydrocarbons with carbon carbon single bond.
For the given alkane;
CH₃ H
CH₃ - C - C - CH₃
H H
Thus, the name of this alkane is with central carbons are bonded to c h 3 is 2-methylbutane.
