The average kinetic energy of a collection of gas particles depends on the temperature of the gas and nothing else.
The correct answer is 12.2% BaO.
The solution is found by dividing the mass of the BaO, which is 25.8 grams, by the total mass of the solution, which is 212 grams, then multiplying it by 100 to get the percentage:
In order to solve this question, we must apply the conservation of mass. The total number of nucleons (upper number) and protons (lower number) must be equal before and after the decay. The new nucleon number is
218 - 4
= 214
And new proton number is
84 - 2
= 82
Next, we must identify which element has the proton number 82. That would be lead, Pb.
Therefore, the answer is
5. ²¹⁴Pb₈₂
