Also I just happening to be learning about this at school
Answer: Salt is soluble in water, when salt is added to water most of it dissolves to make a solution. When sand is added to water it either hangs in the water or forms a layer at the bottom of the container. Sand therefore does not dissolve in water and is insoluble. It is easy to separate sand and water by filtering the mixture. Salt can be separated from a solution through evaporation. The water can also be recovered as well as the salt if the water vapour is trapped and cooled to condense the water vapour back into a liquid. This process is called distillation.
Explanation:
- Naturally occurring
- Inorganic
- Solid
- Definite chemical composition
- Ordered internal structure
A mineral has to be naturally occurring. Coal is not a mineral because it is carbon-based and comes from fossilized plants. Glass is non-crystalline solid.
Answer:
₈₆²²²Rn → ₈₄Po²¹⁸ + H₂⁴
Explanation:
The given nuclear reaction shows alpha decay.
₈₆²²²Rn → ₈₄Po²¹⁸ + H₂⁴
Properties of alpha radiations:
Alpha radiations are emitted as a result of radioactive decay. The atom emit the alpha particles consist of two proton and two neutrons. Which is also called helium nuclei. When atom undergoes the alpha emission the original atom convert into the atom having mass number less than 4 and atomic number less than 2 as compared to parent atom the starting atom.
Alpha radiations can travel in a short distance.
These radiations can not penetrate into the skin or clothes.
These radiations can be harmful for the human if these are inhaled.
These radiations can be stopped by a piece of paper.
₉₂U²³⁸ → ₉₀Th²³⁴ + ₂He⁴ + energy
