The product of the nuclear reaction in which 31p is subjected to neutron capture followed by alpha emission is ²⁸Al.
Nuclear
reaction: ³¹P + n° → ²⁸Al + α (alpha particle).<span>
Alpha decay is radioactive decay in which an atomic
nucleus emits an alpha particle (helium nucleus) and transforms
into an atom with an atomic number that is reduced by
two and mass number that is reduced by four.</span>
Answer:
B only
Explanation:
Using the VSEPR principle, the electron bond pairs and the lone pairs on the middle atom help us predict the structure of the molecule. The shape of a molecule is determined by the position of the nucleus and its electrons. The electrons and the nucleus settle in positions that minimize repulsion and maximize attraction.
Answer:
oxygen and silicon, both are common
Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
The process in which sediment moves downhill is known as mass movement.
Different types of mass movement are landslides, mud slides, slump, creep etc.
Mud flow contains mass of saturated rock particles of all sizes. Mud flow arises due to sudden flood of water or due to heavy rain in a dry region (semi-arid region). Soil and rocks from a large slope area flow along with the flood water and gets washed to a gulch or canyon.
As a result, debris and water moves down canyon and lay out on the gentle slopes below.
Thus, we can conclude that mud flow is most likely facilitates mass movement after heavy rains in a dry region.
<u>Answer</u>:
Electric evaporator has been used to clean up the Chernobyl and 3 mile island accident.
<u>Explanation</u>:
About 14 years back, there was a puff of radioactive steam from the evaporator used in the "Three-mile island" nuclear plant. It took two years for the electric evaporator to clean up the 2.2 million gallons of water that have been destroyed because of the nuclear power plant accident.
The steam that came out of the electric evaporator carried a radioactive form of hydrogen and tritium with itself. Cost of clean up was $1 billion.
