7 0
The correct answer is:
a positron is emitted when proton converts to a neutron.

The reaction can be described as following:
₁¹p (proton) → ₀¹n (neutron) + ₁°e (positron or ₁⁰β)
Positron is an antiparticle of a β particle (₋₁°β), which means it has an oposite charge to it, but same mass.

Predict the products of the reaction below
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

HNO₃ + NaOH ---> NaNO₃ + H₂O

Explanation:

This reaction appears to be a double-displacement reaction. In these reaction, the cation of one compound is swapped with the cation of another.

As such, the hydrogen cation (H⁺) from HNO₃ is swapped with the sodium cation (Na⁺) of NaOH.

Luckily, all of the cations have a +1 charge and the anions have a -1 charge. This means that no coefficients are necessary to balance the reaction.

The <u>complete balanced </u>equation is:

HNO₃ + NaOH ---> NaNO₃ + H₂O

What rules should you follow when adding and subtracting ?
wariber [46]
Adding and subtracting with scientific notation may require more care, because the rule for adding and subtracting exponential expressions is that the expressions must havelike terms<span>. Remember that to be </span>like terms<span>, two expressions must have exactly the same base numbers to exactly the same powers. Thinking about decimal arithmetic, the requirement that we have the same powers makes sense, because that guarantees that all of the place values are lined up properly.</span>
