Definimos la radiactividad como el proceso mediante el cual un núcleo inestable pierde energia mediante emisiones (puede emitir fotones, neutrones, etc.)

Así, la característica princpial es que el elemento debe ser inestable.

-------------------------------------

Cuando tenemos un elemento inestable, lo que puede deberse a que el elemento tiene un núcleo muy grande, o a que el elemento por alguna razón tiene muchos neutrones, este elemento querrá de alguna manera volver a un estado más estable.

Usualmente, la inestabilidad se ve representada como un dado exceso de energía, entonces la forma en la que el átomo se estabiliza es liberando energía de alguna forma.

Esta energía puede ser liberada mediante una desintegración, donde el elemento original se convierte en otros elementos y en el proceso se liberan nucleones, o por emisiones de fotones característicos del elemento, o de otras diversas formas que dependerán del caso particular.

Concluyendo la idea, para que un elemento sea radiactivo (es decir, emite radiación) la característica  que este elemento debe tener es que debe ser inestable.

3. The temperature of a fixed mass of gas in a rigid container is decreased from 127.00 degrees
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

750mmHg

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

T1 = 127°C = 127 +273 = 400K

T2 = 27°C = 27 +273 = 300K

P1 = 1000mmHg

P2 =?

P1/T1 = P2/T2

1000/400 = P2 /300

Cross multiply

400 x P2 = 1000 x 300

Divide both side by 400

P2 = (1000 x 300)/400

P2 = 750mmHg

Therefore, the new pressure after cooling is 750mmHg

Is there a phobia for chemical reactions specifically?
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

chemonoia

Explanation:

Many people have a strong fear of “chemicals” that belies the evidence. It's called chemonoia – and it may be damaging their health. If you were paranoid, you might think there really was something in the water that's damaged our sense of reason.

Why in anaerobic conditions is nadh oxidized by lactate dehydrogenase.
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

It is in the oxidation of NADH to NAD + that lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) plays an important role. LDH catalyzes the following reaction The lactate then diffuses out of the cell and the NAD + is used to continue glycolysis.It is in this manner that the cell continues to produce energy under anerobic conditions.
