1. Answer is ₉₂²³⁵U<span>

<span>Since this is an alpha emission the atomic number of the daughter nucleus decreases by 2 while mass number decreases by 4 compared to parent atom. Since parent atom has 94 as atomic number the daughter atom should have </span>94 - 2 = 92 as atomic number<span> <span>and </span></span>239 - 4 = 235 as mass number. <span>

</span></span>₉₄²³⁹Pu → ₂⁴He + ₉₂²³⁵U<span>

2. </span><span>Answer is </span>₉₁²³⁴Pa<span>

</span><span>Since this is a beta emission, a neutron is converted into a proton while emitting an electron. Hence atomic number increases by 1 compared to mass number but mass number remains as same. Hence, the </span>atomic number of the daughter atom<span> <span>should be </span></span>90 + 1 = 91<span> <span>which belongs to </span></span>Pa<span>. But the </span>mass number is same as 234.<span>

</span>₉₀²³⁴Th → ₋₁⁰e + ₉₁²³⁴Pa<span>
</span><span>
3.<span> <span>Answer is </span></span></span>₈¹⁸O<span>

</span><span>Since this is a positron emission, a proton is converted into a neutron while emitting an positron. Hence atomic number decreases by 1 compared to mass number but mass number remains as same. Hence, the </span>atomic number of the daughter atom<span> should be </span>9- 1 = 8 <span>which belong to </span>O<span>. But the </span>mass number is same as 18.<span>

</span>₉¹⁸F → ₊₁⁰e + ₈¹⁸O<span>

4. </span>Answer is ₈₀²⁰¹Hg<span>

</span><span>This is an </span><span>electron capture decay. </span>A<span> proton is converted into a neutron by emitting a gamma ray. In this process </span>mass number remains as same<span> <span>as parent atom which is </span></span>201<span>, but the </span>atomic number is decreased by 1<span> <span>than parent atom. Hence atomic number of daughter nucleus is 81 -1 = </span></span>80 <span>which belongs to </span>Hg.<span>
</span><span>
</span>₈₁²⁰¹Tl +  ₋₁⁰e →  ₀⁰γ + ₈₀<span>²⁰¹Hg</span>

When a 1.00 L sample of water from the surface of the Dead Sea (which is more than 400 meters below sea level and much saltier t
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer: Molarity of MgCl_2 in the original sample was 1.96M

Explanation:

Molarity is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved per liter of the solution.

Molarity=\frac{\text{no of moles}}{\text{Volume in L}}

{\text {moles of solute}=\frac{\text {given mass}}{\text {molar mass}}=\frac{186g}{95g/mol}=1.96

Now put all the given values in the formula of molarity, we get

Molarity=\frac{1.96}{1.00L}

Molarity=1.96mol/L

Thus molarity of MgCl_2 in the original sample was 1.96M

pressure has little effect on the solubility of liquids and solids because they are almost incompressible. True or False
slavikrds [6]

Pressure has little effect on the solubility of liquids and solids because they are almost incompressible True.

Liquids and solids show little change in solubility with changes in pressure. As expected, gases increase in solubility with increasing pressure. Henry's Law states that the solubility of a gas in a liquid is directly proportional to the pressure of that gas above the surface of the solution.

External pressure has little effect on liquid and solid solubility. In contrast, the solubility of a gas increases as the partial pressure of the gas above the solution increases.

Solubility is a measure of the concentration of dissolved gas particles in a liquid and is a function of gas pressure. Increasing the gas pressure increases the number of collisions and increases the solubility, and decreasing the pressure decreases the solubility.

Read the sentence.
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

The correct answer is "reveal the structures".

Explanation:

The predicate is the part of the prayer that tells us what the subject is doing. In this prayer "The Fossils" is the subject, so we must seek the action that develops from the subject. That action is that the fossils "reveal the structures". In this way, we can find the simple predicate of this sentence.

Have a nice day!
