Zinc-64 undergoes beta decay as shown:

Chemistry
1 answer:
IrinaK [193]3 years ago
7 0

Symbol for X : \tt _{31}^{64}Ga

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Radioactivity is the process of unstable isotopes to stable isotopes by decay, by emitting certain particles,  

  • alpha α particles ₂He⁴
  • beta β ₋₁e⁰ particles
  • gamma particles ₀γ⁰
  • positron particles ₁e⁰
  • neutron ₀n¹

Zinc-64 undergoes beta decay, so :

The atomic number will increase by +1, and the mass number will remain the same

So that the atomic number:

30 + 1 = 31

The element with atomic number 31 is Gallium

Reaction

\tt _{30}^{64}Zn\Rightarrow _{31}^{64}Ga+~_{-1}^0\beta

Certain stages of the water cycle
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

evaporation is most likely to occur on a warm sunny day

Explanation:

Evaporation rates are higher at higher temperatures because as temperature increases, the amount of energy necessary for evaporation decreases. In sunny, warm weather the loss of water by evaporation is greater than in cloudy and cool weather. ... So, sunny, hot, dry, windy conditions produce higher evaporation rates.

During beta-oxidation of fatty acids, ___________ is produced in peroxisomes but not in mitochondria. A) acetyl-CoA B) FADH 2 C)
stepan [7]

Answer:

The correct option is D

Explanation:

Normally, beta-oxidation of fatty acid occurs in the mitchondrial matrix, however, when the fatty acid chains are too long, the beta-oxidation occurs in the peroxisomes <u>where the oxidation is not attached to ATP synthesis but rather transferred (i.e high energy electrons are transferred) to O₂ to form hydrogen peroxide</u> (H₂O₂). This is the major difference between the beta-oxidation that occurs in the peroxisomes to that which occurs in the mitochondria.

What occurs along a convergent plate boundary ?
Margaret [11]

Answer:

Two plates pull towards each other

Explanation:

Along a convergent plate boundary, two plates moves towards each other as the move in the same direction.

This results in different forms of plate interactions depending on the plate types.

  • At an ocean - ocean and continental - ocean convergent front, subduction of the oceanic plate occurs. This is because the oceanic plate below is denser than the asthenosphere.
  • At a continental - continental convergent front, the continental crust is pulls upward and build up as a mountain.
  • The subduction produces trenches and some volcanic islands.
