U^235Number of protons = 92 pNumber of electrons = 92 eNumber of neutrons = 235 – 92 = 143n
U^238Number of protons = 92pNumber of electrons = 92eNumber of neutrons = 238 – 92 = 146n
Electron configuration of U atom U = 92 U = [Rn] 5f^6 6d^0 7s^0 U = [Rn] 5f^36d^17s^2, 7s is completely filled and others are less than half filled. 
(_92^238)U  Decays to (_90^234)ThIt loses 2 protons, 2 electrons and loses 2 neutrons Th = [Rn] 6d^2 7s^2 There is no electron in 5f subshell and 6d contains 2e^-, 7s completely filled

Cecil writes the equation for the reaction of hydrogen and oxygen below.
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

C) to show that atoms are conserved in chemical reactions

Explanation:

When writing a chemical reaction, we should always consider the Mass Conservation Law, which basically states that; in an isolated system; the total mass should remain constant, this is, the total mass of the reactives should be equal to the total mass of the products

For this case, we should add the apporpiate coefficients in order to be in compliance with this law:

2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O

So, we can check the above statement:

For reactives (left side):

4H

2O

For product (right side):

4H

2O

What product of an acid base reaction is an ionic compound apex?
charle [14.2K]
When acids react with bases they produce salt and water such as:
HCl + NaOH → NaCl + H₂O
According to strength of acid and base, we have 4 types of salts:
salt of strong acid and strong base like: NaCl
salt of weak acid and strong base like: CH₃COONa
salt of strong acid and weak base like: NH₄Cl
salt of weak acid and weak base like: CH₃COONH₄
