<span>In beta minus (β−) decay, a neutron is converted to a proton and the process creates an electron and an electron antineutrino; while in beta plus (β+) decay, a proton is converted to a neutron and the process creates a positron and an electron neutrino. β+ decayis also known as positron emission.</span>
Answer:
Explanation:
⁵⁹₂₆Fe --------- ⁰₋₁e + ⁵⁹₂₇Co
Co- 59 is known as Cobalt
its symbol is ⁵⁹₂₇Co
By convention, the symbol Z is assigned to the number of protons in the nucleus, or simply, the atomic number of an element. This is actually used when you want to determine the effective nuclear charge of a specific electron of an element. The equation is:
Z* = Z - S
where
Z* is the effective nuclear charge
Z is the atomic number
S is the number of electrons between the electron in question and the nucleus
There is due to a phenomenon called the shielding effect. This effect states that the farther the electron is from the nucleus, the lesser is its pull of force to the nucleus. That is the reason why the valence electrons (outermost electrons) are the ones always involved in chemicals reactions. Because they are not that strongly bonded to the nucleus of an atom.
To calculate number of moles, all you do is divide the given mass by the molecular molar mass:
<span>i.e. 125g / 18g = 6.94444g </span>
<span>Therefore, your answer is (a) 6.94 g</span>
