Answer:

⁶¹₂₉Cu + ⁴₂He --->⁶⁵₃₁Ga

Explanation:

Nuclear reactions are reactions which occur with changes in the nucleus of an atom. Nuclear reactions usually occur with the release of large amounts of energy and radiation. Radiactive elements are elements that are involved in nuclearbreactions due to the unstable nature of their nucleus. They disintegrate spontaneously with the emission of radiations. The major types of radiations released during nuclear reactions are;

1, Alpha particles - these are positively charged radiations with strong ionizing power. Each alpha particle is a helium nucleus

2. Beta particles - these are very fast moving stream of electrons. They are negatively charged particles .

3. Gamma radiation - is a form of electromagnetic radiation.

In the alpha absorption of Cu-61, the proton number of the atom increases by 2 while the mass number increases by 4 and the Cu-61 atom is changed to Ga-65 atom. The nuclear equation is given as follows:

⁶¹₂₉Cu + ⁴₂He --->⁶⁵₃₁Ga

How many milliliters of a solution of 8.8M CaBr2 are needed to prepare 175 mL of a 2.2M solution?
patriot [66]

The product of molarity and volume of any substance at a fixed temperature is constant. Therefore comparing two portions of different molarity, we can say that, M₁V₁=M₂V₂

M represents the molarity, V represents volume of the solution.

M₁ in the question is 8.8M

M₂ is 2.2M

V₁=?

V₂= 175

therefore,

8.8ₓV₁= 2.2ₓ175ml

V₁=(2.2ₓ175ml)/8.8

=43.75 ml

When sugar crystals dissolve in water the level of water does not rise appreciably why?
Vlad [161]
Water molecules have space in between them. They are not packed tightly in liquid form. So the dissolved sugar molecules fill the intermolecular space in between the water molecules. This is why you cannot really see a rise in water level.
