Alpha particles, also called alpha ray or alpha radiation, consist of two protons and two neutrons bound together into a particle identical to a <u>helium-4 nucleus. </u>They are generally produced in the process of alpha decay, but may also be produced in other ways.
Composition: 2 protons, 2 neutrons
Mass: 6.644657230(82)×10−27 kg; 4.0015061...
Electric charge: +2 e
Symbol: α, α2+, He2+
Answer:
To calculate the moles we must first find the molar mass M
M (Na2S2O8) = (23*2) + (32*2) + (16*8)
= 46 + 64 + 168
= 278g/mol
Molar mass = mass/moles
moles =mass / molar mass
= 25.2/278
= 0.0906mol
Hope this helps.
You should add a screenshot of the leaf cross section so that we know what it looks like
Explanation:
By losing or gaining electrons from its outermost orbit
