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.

What is produced by a neutralization reaction between an arrhenius acid and an arrhenius base?
stepladder [879]

Answer: Salt and Water

Explanation:

An Arrhenius acid (HCl) can best be defined as any substance that when added to water increases the concentration of H+ ions.

While an Arrhenius base (KOH) is any substance that when added to water increases the concentration of OH- ions.

When an Arrhenius acid such as HCl reacts with an Arrhenius base such as KOH, the end products will be salt and water, in a process called Neutralization Reaction.

HCl (aq) + KOH (aq)  -------> KCl (aq) + H2O (l)

1. How many moles of CO2 can be produced from a reaction of 10.0 moles CzHg?
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

20 moles of CO2 can be produced from a reaction of 10.0 moles C2H6

Explanation:

In this reaction -

2 moles of C₂H6 produces four molecules of Carbon dioxide (CO2)

So 1 mole of C₂H6 will produce \frac{4}{2} = 2 moles of Carbon dioxide (CO2)

Thus, 10 moles of C₂H6 will produce 2 * 10 = 20 moles of Carbon dioxide (CO2)

Answer:

An element

It stays shiny

Explanation:

Pure Gold is an element.

An element is a distinct substance that cannot be split-up into simpler substances. Such substances consists of only one kind of atom.

There are over a hundred elements known to date.

As an element, Gold is classified as a metal due to its very unique set of properties.

One of the indicator that gold does not react with oxygen is that it stays shiny. It does not give rusty look when exposed to air.

Substances that combines with oxygen have a rusty look or change appearance when expose to air. For example, iron.

There are two stable isotopes of carbon, carbon -
nalin [4]

There is not enough information to determine anything about the relative abundances of the two isotopes.

<h3>What are isotopes?</h3>

Isotopes are atoms that have the same atomic number but different mass numbers. We know that all the isotopes of an element are not available to the same extent in nature.

Hence, from the average atomic mass of carbon, we can see that there is not enough information to determine anything about the relative abundances of the two isotopes.
