What would have been the charge of the new nucleus formed if the beta particle had been a positron?
When a positron is emitted a proton is converted into a neutron. Therefore the new nucleus will have a positive charge that is one less than its previous charge.
When atoms of beryllium are bombarded with alpha particles an atom of carbon is produced and a neutron is emitted What kind of nuclear reaction occurred?
Nuclear Fission. The Nucleus of the Atom has been split apart.
Is element 115 dangerous?
Yes it can be in some ways but i don`t know what
How long has marijuana been on earth?
As plant material decays quickly it is hard to difinitively answer bet intact specimens have been collected from tar beds from crustacous period 300,000,000 bc with definate cannibis indica dna structure. One can assume that the evalution of that plant took atleast another million years. Muke and laura. On youtube for more
Does radon gas give off alpha radiation?
Yes it does. By the time a radon nucleus has decayed to a stable lead nucleus 6 alpha particles have been emitted. These are dangerous to health. For this reason, basements which are in high radon areas should be positively vented to the outside. Note. care should be taken with decorative granite counter-tops. Some of these cause radon levels in the kitchen which are far above the safe limit.
What happened to the body after the internal organs had been removed?
After the internal organs have been removed the body decays
How many alpha particles are produced as one atom of uranium-238 decays to an atom of lead-206?
4 alpha particles were emitted. This is known by the fact that an alpha particle ,on being given out, decrease the mass number of the element by 4.Hence the decrease in mass number in above question is 12 which itself states the answer that 4 alpha particles are emitted. The number of beta particles emitted are 3 beta particle have been emitted.
When a neutron decays into a proton the electron is emitted from the nucleus what is this kind of radioactivity called?
If an electron is released from the nucleus (and not from an electron shell) then it would have been emitted by a neutron in beta decay. In beta-minus decay, a neutral neutron emits an electron and an anti-neutrino and becomes a proton; in beta-plus decay, a proton emits a positron and a neutrino and becomes a neutron.
What happened to the body after the internal organs had been remover?
After the internal organs have been removed the body decays
What is the difference Radiation and irradiation?
Radiation is emitted from something and travels from its point of origin to somewhere else. When radiation hits something else (and is therefore stopped) the thing that has been hit is said to have been irradiated. Thus a sunbather is undergoing irradiation by radiation emitted by the sun.
What is fossilization in detail?
When bones, or other dense living material is buried, over thousands of years as it decays it leaves spaces where minerals can gather. As the bone/ivory/shell/whatever, decays it is slowly replaced with mineral deposits that when the substance is fully decayed will fill in the hole that would have been left, and that mineral form is the fossil.
What is the name of the newly discovered element?
People say they have made the element unahexium but hasn't been confirmed and even if there has been and element confirmed its only stable for a few milliseconds before it decays into more stable elements.
Why is energy realse when two pronton fused together?
It's not. 2He is ridiculously unstable and "immediately" (so fast the decay time has never been measured) decays into a deuteron.
Explain why radon's potential health hazard has been discovered only recently even though this gas has always been emitted from uranium-containing rocks in the ground?
Because radon has no odor or color.
What is hubb?
Presuming you mean "Hubble's Law," it is an observed fact that, the further an object is from our Earth, the greater is the red shift of its emitted light. What has been been undeniably observed can only be explained by an ongoing expansion of our Universe.
