Answer is: B. beta particles.

Nuclear reaction: ¹⁴C → ¹⁴N + e⁻ + νe (electron antineutrino).

In beta minus decay (atomic number Z is increased by one, from 6 in carbon to 7 in nitrogen) neutron is converted to a proton and an electron and an electron antineutrino.

Beta decay is radioactive decay in which a beta ray and a neutrino are emitted from an atomic nucleus.

To show the electron configuration for an atom, when would it be better to use an orbital notation than to use a written configu
VikaD [51]
The answer is <span>D.when the aim is to show electron distributions in shells. This is because there are some instances when elements don't possess a regular or normal electron configuration. There are those who have special electron configurations wherein a lower subshell isn't completely filled before occupying a higher subshell. It is best to visualize such cases using the orbital notation.</span>

In this activity, several changes will be made to samples of matter. Your challenge will be to decide if the change is physical
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

Step 1: Burning Candle - Mass- 2.19 The wick of the candle changed colors, from white to black. The shape and height of the candle changed.

Step 2: Cooling Candle - Mass- 2.18, The shape of the has a flat surface.

Step 3: Tearing paper - The paper is somewhat easy to tear, and its edges change shape. It does take a bit to tear it into pieces though.

Step 4: Wet paper - It absorbed the water easily. It became very fragile.

Step 5: Burning pieces of paper - The paper burned fast, it changed color and folded inward and downward.

Step 6: Salt and water in test tube - The water changed color and even bubbled. Small particles of salt dissolve.

Step 7: Baking soda and vinegar - The substance bubbled and changed to a white yet somewhat transparent color.

In chemical changes, composition is the factor that changes, and it's sometimes harder to identify a chemical change as it can't always be seen. Whereas physical changes are more easily identifiable because they include smell, color, anything to do with appearance.

In the candle tests, it was a physical change because its physical appearance changed, such as its height, mass, and color of the wick. The tearing paper test was a physical change too because its physical appearance changed. It’s shape being the main change. I think the burning the paper was both physical and chemical because its physical appearance, the color and shape, changed. But the properties of it changed too, because it went from being paper to being ashes. The salt & water and the baking soda & vinegar were both chemical changes because some properties changed and they formed new substances. Both things caused a gas like substance to form which caused the bubbling formation of both.

How many moles of O2 are produced when 0.500mol of KO2 reacts in this fashion?
Shtirlitz [24]
I think you means the KO2 reacts with H2O. The equation of this reaction is 4KO2+2H2O->4KOH +3O2. The ratio of mole number of O2 and KO2 is 3:4. So the mole number of O2 produced is 0.500/4*3=0.375 mol.

A 2.25-g sample of magnesium nitrate, mg(no3)2, contains __________ mol of this compound.
MatroZZZ [7]
  Mg(No3)2  is  calculated   as  follows

moles  =  mass/molar  mass
the  molar  mass  of  Mg(NO3)2  is =  148 g/mol

moles  is  therefore= 2.25 g /  148  g/mol= 0.0152  moles

Mg(No3)2   contain  0.0152  moles  of  the   compound
