(2) In the third shell, an electron has more energy and is farther from the nucleus.
(3) In the third shell, an electron has less energy and is closer to the nucleus.
(4) In the third shell, an electron has less energy and is farther from the nucleus.
Research nuclear energy and its use for generating electricity.
Directions
Use the library, internet, and other educational resources to research nuclear energy.
Write a three-paragraph report on what you have learned. Be sure to include the uses of nuclear power, how it is generated, and the impact it has on the environment. Also, answer the question, "Is nuclear energy renewable?"
Yes.Nuclear energy is renewable
(2) Cs-137, Fr-220, Tc-99
(3) Kr-85, Ne-19, Rn-222
(4) Pu-239, Th-232, U-238
Answer: The correct option is 3.
Explanation: Radioisotopes which emits alpha-particle are known as alpha-emitters. These radioisotopesundergo alpha-decay.
The radioisotopes which emits beta-particle are known as beta-emitters. These radioisotopes undergo beta-minus decay. In this decay a neutron gets converted to a proton and an electron.
The radioisotopes which emits positron-particle are known as positron-emitters. These radioisotopes undergo beta-plus decay. In this type of decay a proton gets converted to a neutron.
From the given options,
Option 1: All the three radioisotopes undergoes beta-minus decay.
Option 2: Cs-137 and Tc-99 radioisotopes undergo beta-minus decay.
Fr-220 is a radioisotope which undergoes alpha-decay.
Option 3: Radioisotope Kr-85 undergoes beta-minus decay.
Radioisotope Ne-19 undergoes positron decay.
Radioisotope Rn-222 undergoes alpha decay.
Option 4: All the three radioisotopes undergoes beta-minus decay processes.
Hence, from the above information, the correct option is 3.
