Another one Noh — let's solve it. a) -rays are a form of electromagnetic radiation (high-energy photons) with no mass or charge. b) • -particles are positively charged and -particles are negatively charged, so they will be deflected in opposite directions by the magnetic field. • -particles have much less mass than -particles, so they will experience a greater deflection than -particles. c) -particles are negatively charged. In an electric field between oppositely charged plates, they will be attracted to the positive plate and repelled by the negative plate. Their path will be a parabolic curve towards the positive plate. d) i) The particle 42X has a mass number of 4 and an atomic number of 2. This corresponds to an alpha particle (helium nucleus). ii) For the nuclear equation AZPo 20682Pb + 42X, we apply the conservation of mass number (A) and atomic number (Z). Step 1: Conserve the mass number (A). A = 206 + 4 A = 210 Step 2: Conserve the atomic number (Z). Z = 82 + 2 Z = 84 The values are: A = 210 Z = 84 What's next? 📸
