What must differ between the atom of two different element easy 10 POINTS

What is state symbols

Ganezh [65]

Answer:

Explanation:

State symbols are used in chemical equations to delineate the state of matter in which the reaction is taking place.

They give a good perspective of the state of the reactants and products obtainable.

There are basically four states of matter in every chemical reaction:

Solids are symbolized by small letter (s)
Liquids are represented by (l)
Gases are shown by (g)
Aqueous solutions having water as the medium by (aq)

These symbols appear as subscript in front of the chemical species.

Two isotopes of hydrogen fuse to form a neutron plus the larger element,A) beryllium.B) carbon.C) deuterium.D) helium.

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer: D) helium.

Explanation:

Nuclear fission is a process which involves the conversion of a heavier nuclei into two or more small and stable nuclei along with the release of energy.

$_{92}^{235}\textrm{U}+_0^1\textrm{n}\rightarrow _{56}^{143}Ba+_{36}^{90}Kr+3_0^1\textrm{n}$

Nuclear fusion is a process which involves the conversion of two small nuclei to form a heavy nuclei along with release of energy.

Example: $_1^2\textrm{H}+_1^3\textrm{H}\rightarrow _2^4\textrm{He}+_0^1\textrm{n}+\text{energy}$

Thus when deuterium and tritium , the two isotopes of hydrogen are fused, a heavier nuclei helium is being formed from two smaller nuclei releasing a neutron.

Need help now! WRITER: Explain how ferns and fungi are different.

RSB [31]

Fungus aren’t plants

Also this is what I found in the internet: „Ferns are plants. They look quite similar with lichens (e.g. Lobaria sp.) and like fungi, they bear spores underneath the fronds. However, ferns do not get nourishment from decaying matter ( some fungi species does) but undergoes photosynthesis like other plants.“

Write a balanced nuclear equation for the formation of 28 Si 14 from beta-minus emission.

Fantom [35]

Answer:

Phosphorus-28 undergoes beta-minus decay to produce

an electron,
a Silicon-28 nuclei, and
an electron antineutrino.

$\rm ^{28}_{13} Al \to ^{28}_{14} Si + ^{\phantom{-}0}_{-1}e + \bar{\mathnormal{v}}_{\rm e}$

Explanation:

In simple words, when a nucleus undergoes beta-minus decay, a neutron is converted to a proton. An electron and an electron antineutrino will be released.

$\rm ^{1}_{0}n^{0} \to ^{1}_{1}p^{+} + ^{\phantom{-}0}_{-1}e^{-} + \bar{\mathnormal{v}}_{\rm e}$ .

One way to tell whether a neutron is converted to a proton, but not vice versa, is to check the sum charges on the two sides of this equation.

Left-hand side: 0. Neutron is neutral.
Right-hand side: 1 + (-1) = 0. Each proton carries a charge of +1. Each electron (beta-minus particle) carries a charge of -1. Antineutrinos are neutral.

The charges on the two sides of this equation is the same. Hence this nuclear equation is possible (but not necessarily correct; however, if the proton and the neutron are in the wrong place the charge won't even be the same.)

Since the mass number of a proton and a neutron are both 1, the overall mass number of the atom will stay the same.

The atomic number is the number of protons in each atom. That number determines the symbol and the chemical properties of the atom. When one neutron in an atom is converted to a proton, the atomic number of the atom will increase by 1.

The atomic number of the daughter nucleus, silicon, is 14. It takes a parent nucleus with atomic number $14 - 1 = 13$ to produce a silicon atom. Refer to a modern periodic table. Atomic number $13$ corresponds to the element aluminum.

Also, the mass number of the daughter nucleus is 28. Since the mass number would stay the same in a beta decay, the mass number of the parent nucleus would also be 28. In other words, it takes an aluminum-28 atom to undergo beta-decay to produce a silicon-28 atom.

Complete the other details (electron and electron antineutrino) to obtain the equation

$\rm ^{28}_{13} Al \to ^{28}_{14} Si + ^{\phantom{-}0}_{-1}e + \bar{\mathnormal{v}}_{\rm e}$ .
