Question
Chapter 20, Problem 9STP
To determine
The process in given figure is to be determined.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 9STP
C
Explanation of Solution
In alpha decay atomic number is increases by 2 and mass number is decreases by 4.
Conclusion:(a) is incorrect,because in nuclear fusion two or more atomic nuclei are combined to form one or more nuclei but only mass number is changed.
(b) is also incorrect.
(d) is incorrectbecause only neuron and protons are transformed to other. No change in mass number and atomic number.

- Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a helically-shaped bacterium that is usually found in the stomach. It burrows through the gastric mucous lining to establish an infection in the stomach's epithelial cells (see photo). Approximately 90% of the people infected with H. pylori will never experience symptoms. Others may develop peptic ulcers and show symptoms of chronic gastritis. The method of motility of H. pylori is a prokaryotic flagellum attached to the back of the bacterium that rigidly rotates like a propeller on a ship. The flagellum is composed of proteins and is approximately 40.0 nm in diameter and can reach rotation speeds as high as 1.50 x 103 rpm. If the speed of the bacterium is 10.0 μm/s, how far has it moved in the time it takes the flagellum to rotate through an angular displacement of 5.00 * 10² rad?
