Questions and Answers 14



1.       carbon-11 decays by positron emission the decay occurs with a release of?
when an atom undergo a positron emission , a protons decays into a neutron, a positron, and electron neutrino is emitted. the resulting isotope or atom will be boron-11,  there will be drop in atomic number and no change atomic mass.

2.       the formation of krypton from rubidium decay is a result of?
krypton has atomic number of 36 while rubidium has atomic number of 37, for a krypton to be formed from rubidium, the rubidium must lost a single proton, therefore the process that occur is positron emission. because a proton decays to neutron.
37Rb → 36Kr + +e
3.       what is the largest number of protons that can exist in a nucleus and still be stable?

4.       41ca decays by electron capture the product of this reaction undergoes alpha decay what is the product of this second decay reaction

in electron capture a protons is converted to neutron and an electron neutrino. therefore the resulting atom will be less by one proton while the atomic mass remain unchanged


20Ca →  19Ka  + -e
 now the potassium undergo a alpha decay, meaning a decrease of two from atomic number and four from mass number.
41 19Ka  → 37 17Cl + 4 2He
 the of the second decay is chlorine -37
5.       the half life of cobalt 60 is 5.20 yr how many milligrams of a 2.000 mg sample remains after 6.55 years
after 6.55 years only one half life has elapse, therefore what remains is 1.00mg of cobalt -60
6.       the following reaction represents what nuclear process? 23595u+10n→13956ba+9436kr+310n
let me rewrite the equation,
23595U+10n→13956Ba+9436Kr+30n
The above reaction is a nuclear fission process where a heavy nucleus ( uranium) is bombarded with  a neutron, and the product s are lighter atoms of krypton and berkelium .

7.       in this 235 92u+10n→azsr+143 54xe+310n find the the atomic and mass number for this reaction?
let me rewrite the equation 235 92U+10n→AZSr+14354Xe+310n
8.       write a nuclear reaction for the neutron-induced fission of u−235 to form xe−144 and sr−90.
