The question is asking us to determine what gives the Amethyst its purplish color. Amethyst colors range from light to dark purple. The most highly regarded are the transparent deep purple colors. Amethyst ( chemical formula: Si O2 ) is the purple variety of the mineral Quartz.The pure Quartz is often colorless. Amethyst gets its purplish color because of the presence of Iron ( Fe ) and other impurities in the gem. Answer: C. Iron.<span /><span />
Answer:
The electronegativity from order of least to highest is:
Ne, Ca, Fe, F
Explanation:
Elements in the periodic table have been arranged based on their level of electronegativity (which is the ability of an atom to attract electrons).
According to Paulings scale of rating elements based on their electronegativity, the electronegativity value of Fe, Ca, Ne, and F are 1.83, 1, 0 and 3.98 respectively.
Hence, based on Pauling scale, the order of electronegativity from least to highest is:
Ne > Ca > Fe > F
Answer:
beta particle
Explanation:
Explanation:
Alpha beta and gamma radiations are the examples of ionizing radiations. When an atom is an excited state and having high energy, the atom is in unstable state. The excess of energy is released by the atom to get the stability. The released energy is in the form of radiations which may include alpha, beta, gamma, X-ray etc.
¹⁴₆C → ¹⁴₇N + ⁰₋₁e
The beta radiations are emitted in this reaction. The one electron is ejected and neutron is converted into proton.
Beta radiations:
Beta radiations are result from the beta decay in which electron is ejected. The neutron inside of the nucleus converted into the proton an thus emit the electron which is called β particle.
The mass of beta particle is smaller than the alpha particles.
They can travel in air in few meter distance.
These radiations can penetrate into the human skin.
The sheet of aluminium is used to block the beta radiations
