<span>Balanced nuclear reaction: 234/91 Pa → 4/2 He + 230/89 Ac.
1) number of protons and neutrons on both side of nuclear reaction must be the same. There are 91 protons (atomic number) and 143 neutrons (mass number - atomic number, 234 - 91 = 143 or (4-2) + (230 - 89) = 143)) on both side of reaction.
2) a</span>lpha
decay is radioactive decay<span> in which
an atomic nucleus emits
an alpha particle (helium
nucleus) and transforms into an atom with an atomic
number that is reduced by two and mass number that is reduced by four, so atomic mass of new element is 89 (91 - 2) and mass number is 230 (234 - 4 = 230).
3) look at atomic number, element with atomic number 89 is actinium.</span>
Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance. It is the kinetic energy of a typical particle. Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles. in a substance.

Answer:
Mass of iron = 59.375 gm
Explanation:
Calories ( or joules) are added to the water by the hot steel so at the endpoint they are BOTH at 40 C
The water gains:
4.18 j/g-C * 50 * (40-30 C) = 2090 j
The steel gave up 2090 j going from 120 to 40 C
2090 = .44 j/g-C * m * (120-40) solve fro m = 59.375 gm
Answer:
Explanation:
1 Non-zero digits are always significant.
2 Any zeros between two significant digits are significant.
3 A final zero or trailing zeros in the decimal portion ONLY are significant.
