Base your answers to questions 14 on the information below and on your knowledge of chemistry.
The atomic mass and natural abundance of the naturally occuring isotopes of hydrogen are shown in the table below.
The isotope H-2, also called deuterium, is usually represented by the symbol “D.” Heavy water forms when deuterium reacts with oxygen, producing molecules of D2O.
Explain, in terms of subatomic particles, why atoms of H-1, H-2, and H-3 are each electrically neutral.*
Base your answers to questions 15 on the information below and on your knowledge of chemistry.
One fission reaction for U-235 is represented by the balanced nuclear equation below.
Both radioisotopes produced by this fission reaction undergo beta decay. The half-life of Xe-140 is 13.6 seconds and the half-life of Sr-94 is 1.25 minutes.
On the diagram below, draw an arrow to represent the path of an emitted beta particle in the electric field between two oppositely charged metal plates.
