The isotope U-235 is important because under certain conditions it can readily be split, yielding a lot of energy. It is therefore said to be 'fissile' and we use the expression 'nuclear fission'. Meanwhile, like all radioactive isotopes, they decay.
Answer:
D) both a and c are correct
Explanation:
The reaction rate is a measure of the speed of a chemical reaction. The factors that affects the rate of a chemical reaction are itemised below:
- Nature of the reactants
- Concentration of the reactants or pressure(if gaseous)
- Temperature
- Presence of catalyst
- Sunlight
Our concern here is temperature. Temperature affects a reaction considerably. Average kinetic energy is directly proportional to the temperature of the reacting particles. When the temperature of a reacting system is increase, the frequency of ordinary and effective collisions per unit time increases. A decrease in temperature implies that the number of collisions also decreases.
The two elements that produce background radiation on earth are Radon and Uranium. Airborne radon can decay on its own. Radon undergoes alpha decay to produce Polonium. Uranium naturally undergoes alpha decay to produce Thorium.
