Answer:
Atoms are composed of a central nucleus which is surrounded by orbiting <u>Electrons</u>.
Explanation:
The word Atom is derived from atomos meaning indivisible particle. An atom is a very small sized particle and its size is approximately 100 picometers.
Atoms are composed of a Nucleus which contains protons and neutrons and the nucleus is surrounded by orbiting electrons. Also, the nucleus is positively charged due to +ve protons and the electrons revolving around nucleus are -vely charged making overall atom neutral in nature.
Atoms react with another atoms due to the presence of valence electrons present in the valence shell of an atom. The valence electrons would make a covalent bond by mutually sharing the electrons or it may form an ionic bond by gaining and loosing valence electron.

<u>Answer:</u> The chemical equation is written below.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Transmutation is defined as the process in which one chemical isotope gets converted to another chemical isotope. The number of protons or neutrons in the isotope gets changed.
The chemical equation for the reaction of curium-242 nucleus with alpha particle (helium nucleus) follows:

The product formed in the nuclear reaction are californium-245 nucleus and a neutron particle.
Answer:
160m/s
Explanation:
To find V Use the following formula V= F*W
V= Velocity F= Frequency W= Wavelength
V=20*8
=160m/s
