How many neutrons lost when uranium 238 decays to thorium 234?
92238U decays to 90234Th by alpha decay. Since an alpha particle is a helium nucleus, 24He2+, having two protons and two neutrons, the reaction entails the loss of two neutrons.
Does an ion have neutrons?
No, ions do not have neutrons. Neutrons are neutral particles found in the nucleus of an atom. Ions are atoms or molecules that have gained or lost electrons, resulting in a net positive or negative charge.
Which of these particles are lost in the oxidation process protons neutrons electrons atoms?
Electrons are these particles.
What are the differences between isotopes isomers and ions?
An isotope is an element that has lost or gained neutrons. Isotopes have the same amount of protons and electrons but have a different number of neutrons. The less neutrons the lighter the isotope, the more neutrons, the heavier the isotope. An ion is an element that has lost or gained electrons. Ions have more or less electrons than protons and have a normal amount of neutrons. The more an atom has the more negative it is, the less the more positive it is.
How many neutrons are in Sr 2 plus?
Strontium (Sr) has an atomic number of 38, meaning it has 38 protons. The most common isotope of strontium is Sr-88, which has 50 neutrons (88 total nucleons minus 38 protons). The Sr²⁺ ion indicates that it has lost two electrons, but the number of neutrons remains unchanged, so Sr²⁺ still has 50 neutrons.
How many neutrons lost when uranium 238 decays to thorium 234?
92238U decays to 90234Th by alpha decay. Since an alpha particle is a helium nucleus, 24He2+, having two protons and two neutrons, the reaction entails the loss of two neutrons.
How many protons and neutrons are lost as U234 decays to Th230?
2 of each in the form of an alpha particle.
What type of radiation is emitted when polonium-212 forms lead-208?
Polonium-212 loses 2 protons and 2 neutrons when it decays to lead-208. These 2 protons and 2 neutrons are lost as a single Helium nucleus. In other words, it is an alpha decay.
How many neutrons does an mg2 ion have?
An Mg2+ ion is a magnesium ion that has a charge of +2, meaning it has lost 2 electrons. The number of neutrons in an Mg2+ ion is the same as in a regular magnesium atom, which is 12 neutrons.
Does an ion have neutrons?
No, ions do not have neutrons. Neutrons are neutral particles found in the nucleus of an atom. Ions are atoms or molecules that have gained or lost electrons, resulting in a net positive or negative charge.
Which of these particles are lost in the oxidation process protons neutrons electrons atoms?
Electrons are these particles.
How many neutrons does a Cu 1 have?
29. Cu 1 is an ion where the Cu atom has lost an electron. Therefore, it would have the normal 29 neutrons.
What are the differences between isotopes isomers and ions?
An isotope is an element that has lost or gained neutrons. Isotopes have the same amount of protons and electrons but have a different number of neutrons. The less neutrons the lighter the isotope, the more neutrons, the heavier the isotope. An ion is an element that has lost or gained electrons. Ions have more or less electrons than protons and have a normal amount of neutrons. The more an atom has the more negative it is, the less the more positive it is.
A hydrogen atom which has lost an electron contains?
After it has lost an electron, a hydrogen ion contains one proton and a variable number of neutrons depending on the isotope (usually none).
What happens when a neutral atom becomes positive?
the excess protons pull harder on the fewer neutrons
How does oxygen stay in the ozone layer?
Oxygen diffuses in and out of the ozone layer, and ozone decays back to oxygen. So any oxygen lost is made up... usually from the troposphere (and its nearby plants).
