Answer :

A Alpha Radiation. As charged particles, such as alpha particles, move through material, energy is transferred from the radiation to the atoms or molecules that make up the material. The major energy-loss mechanisms are electronic excitation and ionization.

Hope this helps :)

In stars mor massive than the sun, fusion continues until the core is almost all....
serious [3.7K]
In stars more massive than the sun, the core temperature is hotter, which allows for fusion of more complex elements.

Most of the fusion occurs in the core.

In stars more massive than the sun, fusion continues through Deuterium, Carbon, and finally reaching iron/nickel.

Up to this point, the fusion reaction was endothermic, which means that the energy expended to produce the fusion reaction was exceeded by the energy produced in the reaction.

Fusion past iron is exothermic, and therefore the star will be able to survive by fusing elements heavier than iron.

After the core is almost entirely iron, the star is no longer in the Main Sequence.

So, fusion in stars more massive than the sun continue fusing until the core is almost entirely <em>iron</em>.

Which element has the strongest attraction for electrons
Alex787 [66]

If one atom is overwhelmingly more electronegative than the other atom, the electrons will not be shared and an ionic bond will result. The periodic table below shows the Pauling electronegativity scale. A value of 4.0 is assigned to FLORINE, the most electronegative element.

ITS FLORINE

tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

5 C = 278 K

25 C = 298 K

V1 / T1 = V2 / T2

1.5L / 278 K = V2 / 298 K

V2 = (1.5L * 298) / 278

V2 = 1.61 L
