LUCKY_DIMON [66]2 years ago
5 0

Zinc deficiency affects the skin and gastrointestinal tract; brain and central nervous system, immune, skeletal, and reproductive systems. Zinc deficiency in humans is caused by reduced dietary intake, inadequate absorption, increased loss, or increased body system use. The most common cause is reduced dietary intake.

If the formula for a compound is represented by X3Y2 and the charge on the Y ion is -3, what is the charge in the X ion?
artcher [175]
I cannot fully remember but the charge of a compound always has to be the same.  However, I believe that the sign of the Y2 means that it is positive 2. 

so in my opinion it is in between b and c. use your best judgment.

The radioactive atom R 88 210 a is an alpha emitter. What nucleus does it produce?
olasank [31]

Answer:

X 86 206

Explanation:

Radioactive atoms are nuclei that can under go disintegration to emit either an alpha particle, beta particle or gamma radiation. The process could be spontaneous or stimulated.

When a radioactive atom R 88 210 emits alpha particle, it would produce an element with atomic number 86 and mass number 206 i.e X 86 206. An alpha particle is usually a helium nucleus.

                     R^{210} ⇒ x^{206} + He^{4} + energy

What are the sign and magnitude of the charge of atom containing 14 protons, 15 neutrons, and 12 electrons?
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]
<span>We know that protons gives positive charge, neutrons no charge and electrons negative, then +14 - 12 = +2 So the charge of the atom is sign positive and magnitude 2</span>

Please help!!!!
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

When an atom gains or loses energy, the  energy of an electron can change.

An electron in an atom can move from one  energy level to another when the atom gains  or loses energy.

Explanation:

The possible energies that electrons in an atom

can have are called energy levels.

• An electron cannot exist between energy levels.

If 2.8X10⁻¹⁰% of the atoms of a radioactive isotope disintegrate in 1.0 yr, what is the decay constant of the process?
Marizza181 [45]

Decay constant, proportionality between the size of a population of radioactive atoms and the rate at which the population decreases because of radioactive decay.

<h3>What is decay constant value?</h3>

The rate of disintegration is proportional to the number of atoms at any point in time and the constant of proportionality is called the radioactivity decay constant. The radioactive decay constant for Radium B is approximately 4.3 × 10−4 s−1.

<h3>What is decay constant unit?</h3>

Definition. The decay constant (symbol: λ and units: s−1 or a−1) of a radioactive nuclide is its probability of decay per unit time. The number of parent nuclides P therefore decreases with time t as dP/P dt = −λ. The energies involved in the binding of protons and neutrons by the nuclear forces are ca.
