Answer:

ⁿₐX => ²¹⁸₈₄Po

Explanation:

Let ⁿₐX be the isotope.

Thus, the equation can be written as follow:

²²²₈₆Rn —> ⁴₂α + ⁿₐX

Next, we shall determine the value of 'n' and 'a'. This can be obtained as follow:

222 = 4 + n

Collect like terms

222 – 4 = n

218 = n

Thus,

n = 218

86 = 2 + a

Collect like terms

86 – 2 = a

84 = a

Thus,

a = 84

ⁿₐX => ²¹⁸₈₄Po

²²²₈₆Rn —> ⁴₂α + ⁿₐX

²²²₈₆Rn —> ⁴₂α + ²¹⁸₈₄Po

What is the predominant intermolecular force in the liquid state of each of these compounds: hydrogen fluoride (HF), carbon tetr
telo118 [61]

Answer:

HF - hydrogen bonding

CBr4 - Dispersion

NF3 - Dipole-dipole

Explanation:

Hydrogen bonding occurs when hydrogen is covalently bonded to a highly electronegative atom such as fluorine, chlorine nitrogen, oxygen etc. Hence the dominant intermolecular force in HF is hydrogen bonding.

CBr4 is nonpolar because the molecule is tetrahedral and the individual C-Br dipole moments cancel out leaving the molecule with a zero dipole moment hence the dominant intermolecular force are the dispersion forces.

NF3 has a resultant dipole moment hence the molecules are held together by dipole-dipole interaction.

How did satellite tracking allow biologists to study the green sea turtle?
Rasek [7]

<u>Answer:</u>

It helped biologists collect data on when and where turtles travel.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Green sea turtles need to be conserved so the biologist take help of satellites in order to track down green sea turtles.

The tracking of green sea turtles can be done by the help of satellites as satellites send a signal whenever these turtles come to surface of water to breathe which can then be used to prevent the turtles from getting caught by poachers.
