Answer is: beta decay.

Nuclear reaction: ⁴⁰K → ⁴⁰Ca + e⁻.

Beta decay is radioactive decay in which a beta ray and a neutrino are emitted from an atomic nucleus.  

There are two types of beta decay: beta minus and beta plus.  

In beta minus decay, neutron is converted to a proton and an electron and an electron antineutrino.

In this nuclear reaction, potassium (atomic number 19) changes to calcium (atomic number 20), atomic number Z is increased by one.

The decay process that is demonstrated by the equation above would be a beta decay. This type of radioactive decay involves the emission of a beta particle. It happens when one of the protons is transformed in the other. The beta particle here is represented by <span>0 -1e.</span>

Consider the following reaction, equilibrium concentrations, and equilibrium constant at a particular temperature. Determine the
liraira [26]

Answer:

1.4 * 10^-3

Explanation:

The equilibrium expression can be written as follows:

Keq = P [HD]^2/[ P[H2] * P[D2]]

Where P is pressure

1.80= (2.7 * 10^-3)^2 / ( 1.1 * 10^-3 * P[H2])

P[H2] = [2.7 * 10^-3]^2 / [1.8 * 1.1 * 10^-3]

P[H2] = 1.4 * 10^-3 atm

If you are given a diagram of an atom, how would you identify what element it is?
Varvara68 [4.7K]

The simplest way to use the periodic table to identify an element is by looking for the element's name or elemental symbol. The periodic table can be used to identify an element by looking for the element's atomic number. The atomic number of an element is the number of protons found within the atoms of that element.

What is the molarity of a solution prepared by dissolving 2.5 grams of LiNO3 in sufficient water to make 60.0 mL of solution?​
Murrr4er [49]

Answer: hope this helps

To make molar NaCl solutions of other concentrations dilute the mass of salt to 1000ml of solution as follows:

0.1M NaCl solution requires 0.1 x 58.44 g of NaCl = 5.844g.

0.5M NaCl solution requires 0.5 x 58.44 g of NaCl = 29.22g.

2M NaCl solution requires 2.0 x 58.44 g of NaCl = 116.88g.
