Answer:
b. Beta emission, beta emission
Explanation:
A factor to consider when deciding whether a particular nuclide will undergo this or that type of radioactive decay is to consider its neutron:proton ratio (N/P).
Now let us look at the N/P ratio of each atom;
For B-13, there are 8 neutrons and five protons N/P ratio = 8/5 = 1.6
For Au-188 there are 109 neutrons and 79 protons N/P ratio = 109/79=1.4
For B-13, the N/P ratio lies beyond the belt of stability hence it undergoes beta emission to decrease its N/P ratio.
For Au-188, its N/P ratio also lies above the belt of stability which is 1:1 hence it also undergoes beta emission in order to attain a lower N/P ratio.
Answer:
15 protons
Explanation:
The atomic number always equals the number of protons inside the nucleus, so if the atomic number is 15, that means 15 protons are present.
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
<u>= 5 M or 5 moles/liter</u>
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
At point E, 90 g of substances X are dissolved in 100 g of the solvent.
100g of the solvent is equal to 100 ml
Molarity is the number of moles of a substance in one liter of a solvent.
90 g of X are in 100 ml
But; the RFM of X = 180 g/l
Therefore; the moles of X in 90 g = 90/180
= 0.5 moles
Therefore;
0.5 moles of X are contained in 100 ml of the solvent;
Thus, molarity = 0.5 × 1000/100
=<u> 5 M or 5 moles/liter</u>
A gravity well is the pull of gravity that a large body in space exerts. The larger the body (the more mass) the more of a gravity well it has. The Sun has a large (or deep) gravity well. Asteroids and small moons have much shallower gravity wells. Anything on a planet or moon is considered to be at the bottom of the gravity well. Entering space from the surface of a planet or moon means climbing out of the gravity well, something that often takes a huge amount of energy. The larger a planet or moon's gravity well is, the more energy it takes to achieve escape velocity and blast a ship off of it.
