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

An asteroid hit the Yucatán Peninsula about 65 million years ago,
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

C. It blocked out sunlight

Explanation:

The asteroid impact 65 million years ago was devastating for lot of the animals and plants, resulting in a mass extinction, most noticeably of the dinosaurs. The impact itself killed a lot of flora and fauna, but it was the effect afterward that was crucial. From this impact, there was so much debris propelled into the atmosphere that the sunlight got blocked. Once this happened, most of the plants died out as they were not able to perform photosynthesis. Because the plants were dying out, the herbivores were left without food, so soon they followed, and because the herbivores died out, the predators died out to because they were left without food. The winners turned out to be the small and not specialized plants and animals.

Change 2.6 km/day to m/week
professor190 [17]
First, we need to transform km to meters.

1 km = 1000 meters

2.6 * 1000 = 2600

Now, there are 7 days in a week. 

Multiply.

2600 * 7 = 18,200

Final answer: 18,200 meters a week

5. What could you do to convert from meters to centimeters? *
maria [59]

C.

centi- is essentially 10^2 of one meter.

If you had 100m, multiplying 100 by 10^2 (or 100) would give you 10000 cm.
