Answer:
this is what i got
Explanation:
α-decay: When a radioactive nucleus disintegrates by emitting an αα-particle, the atomic number decreases by two and mass number decreases by four. Example: 88Ra226→86Rn222+2He4.
First, we must know what happens in the precipitation reaction. This type of reaction is a double replacement reactions. It is consists of two reactant compounds which interchange cations and anions to form two products. One of the products is an insoluble solid called a precipitate. For the precipitation of CaCO₃, there are two consecutive reactions involved:
1. Slaking of quicklime, CaO
CaO + H₂O ⇒ Ca(OH)₂
2. Precipitation
Ca(OH)₂ + CO₂ ⇒ CaCO₃ + H₂O
The ions that make up the H₂O molecule are H⁺ and OH⁻. According to solubility rules, the cation (positively charged ion) is likely to be attracted to an anion (negatively charged ion). Together, they form an ionic bond. This type of bond is when there is a complete transfer of electrons between the two. The Ca²⁺ cation lacks 2 electrons, while the anion OH⁻ has an excess 1 electron. In order to be stable, 1 Ca²⁺ ion and 2 OH⁻ ions must combine.
Therefore, the answer is OH⁻ ion.
Answer:
Option A
They are located near the equator
Explanation:
From the diagram, we can observe that all the rain forest zones occur near the equator.
This is because on an annual basis, the equator receives the highest concentration of solar radiation in the whole Earth. This implies that the rate of evaporation of water from the water bodies present is high, and consequently, the amount of rainfall is high also. This abundant sunshine and high rainfall leads to the growth of the tropical rain forests at those regions
Answer:
A solvent is a substance that dissolves a solute, resulting in a solution. A solvent is usually a liquid but can also be a solid, a gas, or a supercritical fluid.
