Explanation:
20984Po→20582Pb+42α
4520Ca→4521Sc+0-1e+00ν
Explanation:
The alpha decay of polonum-209, which consists of the emission of an alpha particle, will leave behind the atom of a different element.
Notice that the identity of the element changes after the decay. This means that you're dealing with a nuclear transmutation, a process that converts an atom of a given element into an atom of a different element.
Answer:
Hydrogen
Explanation:
A reducing agent is a substance which gives up its electrons to become oxidized. Generally, metals are oxidized (reducing agents) while non-metals are reduced (oxidizing agents).
However, hydrogen which is a non-metal is usually oxidized in the presence of stronger oxidizing non-metals such as fluorine and oxygen.
Hydrogen thus, acts as a reducing agent by giving up its electrons to become oxidized. Even though among all non-metals, Hydrogen has the greatest potential to be oxidized, it is a poor reducing agent compared to reactive metals.
Silicon is the second most abundant element in the Earth´s crust and makes up around 27% of it.
Yes layers of sediment form at the bottom of the ocean.
Answer:
The negatively charged rod will force a stream of water away from the rod because of the "attractive force. "
Explanation:
As we know that water molecules have been randomly arranged. So when a negatively charged rod is put near the stream of water, the molecules present in the water start rotating, unless the positive side will be close to the negative side of the rod. Which results in the generation of the attraction force. Hence, the stream of the water forces away the negatively charged rod. When the water molecules have polarized molecules in it the effect will be stronger than the dust.
