Answer: B. helium

Explanation:

Alpha decay: In this process, alpha particles is emitted when a heavier nuclei decays into lighter nuclei. The alpha particle released has a charge of +2 units.

General representation of an element is given as:_Z^A\textrm{X} where,

Z represents Atomic number

A represents Mass number

X represents the symbol of an element

_Z^A\textrm{X}\rightarrow _{Z-2}^{A-4}+_2^4\alpha

As the alpha particle has atomic number of 2 and mass number of 4, this is helium nuclei.

The Gateway Arch in St. Louis, MO is approximately 630 ft tall. How many U.S. dimes would be in a stack of the same
miskamm [114]

Answer:

142240

Explanation:

We are told in the question:

Height of Gateway Arch in St. Louis, MO = 630ft

We are asked, how many U.S. dimes would be in a stack of the same

height when 1 dime is 1.35 mm thick.

Step 1

Convert height in ft to mm

1 ft = 304.8 mm

630ft =

Cross Multiply

630ft × 304.8mm/1ft

= 192024 mm.

Step 2

To find how many US dimes would be in a stack of the same height

= Total thickness/ Thickness of 1 US dime

= 192024 mm/1.35mm

= 142240

Therefore, the number of dimes that would be in a stack of the same

height is 142240

When water is electrolyzed, it splits into hydrogen and oxygen.
Westkost [7]

The mass of water is equal to the combined mass of hydrogen and oxygen.

<h3>What is Mass?</h3>

This is defined as the quantity of matter in a physical body. The electrolysis reaction of water can be seen below:

2 H₂O ---> 2 H₂ + O₂

We can deduce that 36 grams of H₂O dissociated to give 4 grams of H₂ and 32 grams of O₂ which option D was chosen as the appropriate choice.

Which of these actions would increase heat transfer between two objects?
klasskru [66]

Heat transfer is the phenomenon that occurs when the two objects are in the vicinity of each other and by increasing the area of their contact. Thus, option B is correct.

<h3>What is heat transfer?</h3>

Heat transfer is a process that flows the heat from one system to another, and is because of the difference in the temperature of the two objects that are part of the system.

The methods like conduction, convection, and radiation transfer the heat from the surface area to the other object. The heat gets transferred from the area of high to the low temperature.

Therefore, option B. by increasing the surface area the heat transfer increases.
