What is the product of electron capture decay of xenon isotope 129xe?
Interestly, a neutron is a proton + an electron. So, when an atom captures an electron, one of its protons becomes a neutron. Now it has 1 more neutron, but 1 less proton; making the it an atom of the element with atomic number 1 less than the original atom. The total number of protons and neutrons remains the same. Xe- 129 + e-1 = I- 129
What decaying radioisotope produces xenon-131 through beta decay?
Iodine-131 is a decaying radioisotope that produces xenon-131 through beta decay. During beta decay, a neutron is transformed into a proton within the nucleus, and a beta particle (an electron) is emitted, resulting in the production of xenon-131.
What happens when you mix fluorine with xenon?
When you mix fluorine with xenon, the fluorine can react with xenon to form xenon fluorides, such as xenon tetrafluoride (XeF4) or xenon hexafluoride (XeF6). These xenon fluorides are generally unstable and highly reactive compounds.
What is five common compounds that contain Xenon?
Xenon is a noble gas. I would think any compounds would be hard to make with using Xenon.
What is the chemical name for XeF8?
Xenon Difluoride
What is the result of cesium-137 undergoing beta-minus decay?
Beta minus decay emits a positron so a proton is changed to a neutron in this process. This means that caesium 137 decays to Xenon 137
What forms a hexafluoride argon or xenon?
Xenon has a hexafluoride, which is xenon hexafluoride (XeF6). Argon does not have a stable hexafluoride compound.
Does xenon form a monatomic ion?
Yes, xenon can form monatomic ions, known as xenon ions. Xenon can lose electrons to form positively charged xenon ions or gain electrons to form negatively charged xenon ions.
How many electrons does xenon have?
Xenon has 54 electrons.
What is the name of the compound with the formula XeO3?
Xenon Trioxide
What identifies the species that occupies the lattice points in crystals of xenon and xenon tetrafluoride?
In crystals of xenon, the species occupying the lattice points is xenon atoms. In xenon tetrafluoride crystals, the species occupying the lattice points is a combination of xenon atoms and fluorine atoms in a specific arrangement.
What does xenon commonly combine with?
Xenon commonly combines with fluorine to form xenon tetrafluoride (XeF4) and xenon hexafluoride (XeF6), as well as oxygen to form xenon tetroxide (XeO4).
