Answer: When a combination reaction occurs between a metal and a non-metal the product is an ionic solid.
Explanation: Another hint(s): When magnesium burns in air, the atoms of the metal combine with the gas oxygen to produce magnesium oxide. This specific combination reaction produces the bright flame generated by flares.
<h3>Answer:</h3>
Curium-247 <em>i.e.</em> ²⁴⁷₉₆Cm
<h3>Explanation:</h3>
Alpha decay is given by following general equation,
ᵃₓA → ⁴₂He + ᵃ⁻⁴ₓ₋₂B
Where;
A = Parent Isotope
B = Daughter Isotope
ᵃ = Mass Number
ₓ = Atomic Number
Californium-251 is the parent isotope in our case and it has 98 protons (atomic number) and is given as,
²⁵¹₉₈Cf
The alpha decay reaction of Californium-251 will be as,
²⁵¹₉₈Cf → ⁴₂He + ²⁴⁷₉₆B
The symbol for B with atomic number 96 was found to be the atom of Curium (Cm) by inspecting periodic table. Hence, the final equation is as follow,
²⁵¹₉₈Cf → ⁴₂He + ²⁴⁷₉₆Cm
A.
H₃C-CH₃
this is called ethane
B.
H₃C-CH₂-CH₂-CH₃
this is called butane
C.H₃C-CH₂-CH₂-CH₂-CH₂-CH₃
this is called hexane
D.
H₃C-CH₂-CH₂-CH₂-CH₂-CH₂-CH₃
this is called heptane
