Answer:

c. The atomic number of the daughter isotope is one more than the parent; the mass numbers are the same

Explanation:

Radioactive decay by beta particle emission involves the emission of an electron.

An electron is a very light particle and its emission does not reflect a loss in mass of the parent molecule. However, the atomic number of the parent molecule increase by one due to the retention of a proton.

Therefore, the daughter isotope has the same mass number as the parent molecule but its atomic number increases by one unit.

An example of beta particle emission is given below;

Th₀(234) ---> Pa₉₁(234) + e₋₁(0)

Thorium₉₀(234) emits a beta particle, e₋₁(0) to give Protactinium₉₁(234)

Give four different chemical meanings for the word element and an example of each
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer ;

-An element is a substance containing only one type of atom, for example; H2 or 02  (consisting of atoms that all have the same number of protons).

-Microscopic, single atom of that element

-Macroscopic, sample of that element large enough to weigh on a balance

- A substance that cannot be broken down chemically; e.g; sodium metal,

Explanation;

-An element is a substance whose atoms all have the same number of protons: another way of saying this is that all of a particular element's atoms have the same atomic number. Elements are chemically the simplest substances and hence cannot be broken down using chemical reactions.

-An element is uniquely determined by the number of protons in the nuclei of its atoms.

When a 1.00 L sample of water from the surface of the Dead Sea (which is more than 400 meters below sea level and much saltier t
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer: Molarity of MgCl_2 in the original sample was 1.96M

Explanation:

Molarity is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved per liter of the solution.

Molarity=\frac{\text{no of moles}}{\text{Volume in L}}

{\text {moles of solute}=\frac{\text {given mass}}{\text {molar mass}}=\frac{186g}{95g/mol}=1.96

Now put all the given values in the formula of molarity, we get

Molarity=\frac{1.96}{1.00L}

Molarity=1.96mol/L

Thus molarity of MgCl_2 in the original sample was 1.96M
