Answer:
To break down the nucleus of an atom
Explanation:
Remember to change from one element to another, is necessary to add protons, neutrons and electrons,in most of the cases.
The take an electron from an atom you need certain energy, but they are in the outside part of the atom so is not as much energy as the one is necessary to take one neutron or proton from the inside part of an atom.
In this way, is a must to have a combination of pressure and heat to destabilize an atom and take some of this subatomic particles.
Answer: 8.00 grams
Explanation:
The ratio of carbon and hydrogen must be the same.
Answer:
As you move from left to right, the nucleus gains protons. This increases the positive charge of the nucleus and its attractive force on the electrons. At the same time, electrons are added to the atoms as you move from left to right across a period.
Explanation:
Answer: (E) 300 bq
Explanation:
Half life is the amount of time taken by a radioactive material to decay to half of its original value.
Radioactive decay process is a type of process in which a less stable nuclei decomposes to a stable nuclei by releasing some radiations or particles like alpha, beta particles or gamma-radiations. The radioactive decay follows first order kinetics.
Half life is represented by 
Half life of Thallium-208 = 3.053 min
Thus after 9 minutes , three half lives will be passed, after ist half life, the activity would be reduced to half of original i.e. 
, after second half life, the activity would be reduced to half of 1200 i.e. 
, and after third half life, the activity would be reduced to half of 600 i.e. 
,
Thus the activity 9 minutes later is 300 bq.
