<u>Answer:</u> The chemical equation is written below.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Transmutation is defined as the process in which one chemical isotope gets converted to another chemical isotope. The number of protons or neutrons in the isotope gets changed.
The chemical equation for the reaction of curium-242 nucleus with alpha particle (helium nucleus) follows:
The product formed in the nuclear reaction are californium-245 nucleus and a neutron particle.

Answer:</h3>
0.144 moles
<h3>
Explanation:</h3>
- The relationship between mass of a compound, number of moles and molar mass of the compound is given by;
- Number of moles = Mass ÷ Molar mass
- Molar mass is equivalent to the relative formula mass of the compound that is calculated the atomic masses of the elements making the compound.
In this case;
Our compound, KClO3 will have a molar mass of;
= 39 + 35.5 + 4(16)
= 138.5 g/mol
Mass of KClO3 is 20 g
Therefore;
Number of moles = 20 g ÷ 138.5 g/mol
= 0.144 moles
Thus, the number of moles in 20 g of KClO3 is 0.144 moles
Answer:
C. Lithium is most easily oxidized of the metals listed on the activity series and therefore it will most easily give electrons to metal cations
Explanation:
"Lithium" is a type of alkali metal that has a "single valence electron." Since it is a reactive element, it easily gives up an electron when it is combined with other elements. Such giving up of electron is meant to create compounds or bonds.
Among the common metals listed, "lithium" is the most easily oxidized. This means that it donates its electrons immediately. Such combination makes it exist as a<em> "cation"</em> or <em>"positively-charged."</em>
So, this explains the answer.
I think the subatomic particles that are paired with each of their corresponding name would be :
1. X , proton and z, electron
hope this helps
