The atomic number of pt-175 after it undergoes alpha decay is 76

Radioactive decay is defined as the splitting of heavy unstable isotopes to two or more stable particles. The three main types of radioactive decay are

alpha decay (α-decay).beta decay (β-decay)gamma decay(γ-decay)

An Alpha decay occurs when the radioactive nucleus releases a helium ion (alpha particle) leaving the daughter nucleus with a reduced atomic number by 2 and reduced atomic mass by 4.

An example is the alpha decay below

¹⁷⁵Pt₇₈ > ¹⁷¹ Os₇₆ + ⁴ He₂

Here,Platinum 175 with atomic number 78 undergoes alpha decay to produce Osmium 171 with atomic number 76.

Answer from: kmarti11owj2q2

Explanation:

Alpha decay is one of the most basic forms of radioactive decay. It has an atomic mass of 4 and a proton number of two.

Undergoing an alpha decay will decrease the atomic mass by four and the atomic number by two.

In this particular question, we are particular about the atomic number. The atom has an atomic number of 78. So taking 2 off this gives 76

For cyclohexane compounds drawn in a chair conformation: -axial bonds are vertical -equatorial bonds are parallel to two bonds within the ring. thus, as i assume the chair conformation is drawn: -the x group is in an axial position, as are the five other vertical bonds. -three axial bonds are on the top face of the ring -the other three axial bonds are on the bottom face the position of the second substituent on each ring carbon is equatorial. gauche groups must be on an adjacent carbon such as carbon 6 and carbon 2, and also gauche groups are rotated by 60 degrees relative to each other. drawing the newman projections for c1–c2 and c1–c6 aids in visualizing the groups that are gauche to the y group on c1. click this link and watch some academic videos that may you more understand the topic

100 grams of molten lead (600°c) is used to make musket balls. if the lead shot is allowed to cool to room temperature (21°c), what is the change in entropy (in j/k) of the lead? (for the specific heat of molten and solid lead use 1.29 j/g⋅°c; the latent heat of fusion and the melting point of lead are 2.45 × 104 j/kg and 327°c, respectively.)
