Answer:
⁴⁰₂₀Ca + ⁰₋₁e
Explanation:
Beta decay:
Beta radiations are result from the beta decay in which electron is ejected. The neutron inside of the nucleus converted into the proton an thus emit the electron which is called β particle.
Properties of beta radiations:
The mass of beta particle is smaller than the alpha particles.
They can travel in air in few meter distance.
These radiations can penetrate into the human skin.
The sheet of aluminium is used to block the beta radiation
⁴⁰₁₉K → ⁴⁰₂₀Ca + ⁰₋₁e
The beta radiations are emitted in this reaction. The one electron is ejected and neutron is converted into proton.
Half-life refers to the time taken for half of the atoms in a radioactive substance to decay. Therefore in 1 half-life the 80 mg of substance will reduce to 40 mg. In another half-life it will reduce from 40 mg to 20 mg, then in a third half-life from 20 mg to 10 mg. Therefore the half-life is equal to the total time taken to decay from 80 mg to 10 mg divided by 3:
t(1/2) = 36 hours / 3 = 12 hours.
Thioacetamide is a synthetic, colorless crystalline solid that is soluble in water and ethanol. Thioacetamide is currently only used as a replacement for hydrogen sulfide in qualitative analysis. When heated to decomposition, it emits toxic fumes of nitrogen oxides and sulfur oxides.

Explanation:
conduction involves the transfer of molecules due to the movement of particles
