When an atomic nucleus emits an alpha particle it decay into an atom with atomic number 2 less and mass number 4 less. Thus Thorium 230 decay as follows.
230 90Th -------> 226 88Th + 4 2 He
thorium is in the atomic number 90 thus it during alpha decay it reduces to atomic number 88 while its 230 mass number reduces to 226
Answer:
Explanation:
Fe⁺²(aq) + ClO₂(aq) → Fe⁺³(aq) + ClO₂⁻(aq)
Here oxidation number of Fe is increased from +2 to +3 , so Fe is oxidised .
The oxidation number of Cl is reduced from + 4 to +3 so Cl is reduced .
So ClO₂(aq) is oxidising agent and Fe⁺²(aq) is reducing agent .
A. They are the same

Given
C3H6 and C4H8
Required
The percent compositions
Solution
%C = 3.12/42 x 100% = 85.71%
%H = 6.1/42 x 1005 = 14.29%
C₄H₈(MW=56 g/mol)
%C = 4.12/56 x 100% = 85.71%
%H = 8.1/56 x 100%=14.29%
So they are the same, because mol ratio of C and H in both compounds is the same, 1: 2
You can tell that the atom is in the excited state because:
- Electron configuration should follow the 2-8-8-2 rule, meaning that the inner shell should be filled before the next shell can start holding electrons.
- Instead of the atom's electron configuration being in the ground state at 2-8-8-1, electrons from the second shell have jumped to the third.
