Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Transmutation involves the conversion of one chemical element into another chemical element. This change occurs when an element or isotope passes through a number of reactions. It is a natural process and happens when there is a radioactive decay.
Hence, it is also a nuclear change as it occurs when there is a change in the nucleus of an atom. As this change can be due to the nuclear decay so as a result there will be some change in energy also. It is the process where one element converts into another using bombardment with high energy particles.
Thus, we can conclude that transmutation involves is a nuclear change.
Answer: True
The formula of weight is w = mg, where m is the mass and g is the acceleration of gravity. If you want to calculate an object's weight, you need to know the two components: mass and gravity.
You only need to know the mass of the object because the acceleration of gravity is ALWAYS (assuming the object is on Earth) 9.8 m/s^2.
Answer:
Electrons will flow from left to right through the wire.
Pb^2+ ions will be reduccd to Pb metal.
The concentration of Sn2+ ions in the left compartment will increase.
Explanation:
Looking at the relative electrode potentials of the two metals
Sn= -0.14
Pb=-0.13
Tin is expected to function as the anode (left hand half cell) and lead as the anode (right hand half cell) tin oxidizes to sn^2+ hence its concentration increases on the left compartment while lead is reduced to ordinary lead metal on the right hand half cell . since oxidation occurs on the left hand side, electrons flow from left to right.
he is a good scientist because he postulated that chemical reactions resulted in the rearrangement of the reacting atoms
