The daughter isotope  : Radon-222 (Rn-222).

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Radium (Ra-226) undergoes an  alpha decay

Required

The daughter nuclide

Solution

Radioactivity is the process of unstable isotopes to stable isotopes by decay, by emitting certain particles,  

  • alpha α particles ₂He⁴
  • beta β ₋₁e⁰ particles
  • gamma particles ₀γ⁰
  • positron particles ₁e⁰
  • neutron ₀n¹

The decay reaction uses the principle: the sum of the atomic number and mass number before and after decay are the same

Radium (Ra-226) : ₈₈²²⁶Ra

Alpha particles : ₂⁴He

So Radon-226 emits alpha α particles ₂He⁴  , so the atomic number decreases by 2, mass number decreases by 4

The reaction :

₈₈²²⁶Ra ⇒ ₂⁴He + ₈₆²²²Rn

What makes hydrogen peroxide a polar molecule?
kupik [55]
  <span>C. polar bonds and asymmetrical structure 
If the molecule contains polar bonds but it has a symmetrical structure, the polar bonds will cancel each other out so the overall molecule will be non-polar. 
On the other hand, if the molecule contains polar bonds but has an asymmetrical structure, then the polar bonds won't cancel each other out, so the overall molecule ends up being polar.

The force of 20 N acts upon a 5kg block. What is the acceleration of the block?
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

<h2>The answer is 4 m/s²</h2>

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

a =  \frac{f}{m}  \\

where

a is the acceleration

f is the force

m is the mass

From the question

f = 20 N

m = 5 kg

We have

a =  \frac{20}{5}  \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>4 m/s²</h3>

Hope this helps you
