Answer: There are 7 alpha-particle emissions and 4 beta-particle emissions involved in this series
Explanation:
Alpha Decay: In this process, a heavier nuclei decays into lighter nuclei by releasing alpha particle. The mass number is reduced by 4 units and atomic number is reduced by 2 units.
Beta Decay : It is a type of decay process, in which a proton gets converted to neutron and an electron. This is also known as -decay. In this the mass number remains same but the atomic number is increased by 1.
In radioactive decay the sum of atomic number or mass number of reactants must be equal to the sum of atomic number or mass number of products .
Thus for mass number : 235 = 207+4X
4X= 28
X = 7
Thus for atomic number : 92 = 82+2X-Y
2X- Y = 10
2(7) - Y= 10
14-10 = Y
Y= 4
Thus there are 7 alpha-particle emissions and 4 beta-particle emissions involved in this series
Answer:
A) 20
B) 40
C) Ca
D) 10
E) 9
F) F
Explanation:
The MASS NUMBER is the number of protons + the number of neutrons.
The ATOMIC NUMBER is the number of protons.
You can take the MASS NUMBER - ATOMIC NUMBER = NUMBER OF NEUTRONS.
Each element is unique and distinguished by the NUMBER OF PROTONS = ATOMIC NUMBER, ie...the number of protons in its nucleus. You can find the element's name and symbol on the Periodic Table.

Explanation:
The stratospheric ozone layer is very important in absorbing high-energy ultraviolet radiation that is harmful to living systems on earth. The concentration of ozone in the stratosphere is determined by both thermal and photochemical pathways for its decomposition. Nitric oxide, NO, is a trace constituent in the stratosphere that reacts with ozone to form nitrogen dioxide, NO2, and the diatomic oxygen molecule. The nitrogen-oxygen bond in NO2 is relatively weak. When an NO2 molecule encounters an oxygen atom, it transfers an oxygen, forming O2 and NO. The chemical reactions involved are formations of NO2 following by reaction of NO2 with atomic oxygen for form NO and O2. The sum of both reactions show that the overall reaction is simply the reaction of ozone with atomic oxygen to form two molecules of molecular oxygen. Hence, NO only serves as a catalyst, it does not undergo a permanent change itself.
The amount of liquid is measured in L. As the unit Lm is only used when measuring the mass liquid fraction.
Answer:
We normally separate unreacted hydrogen from ammonia (product) in Haber process. The reaction mixture contains some ammonia, plus a lot of unreacted hydrogen and nitrogen. The mixture is cooled and compressed, causing the ammonia gas to condense into a liquid.
