I don't get how to answer this, I have included an image of the question.
For this question, CHOOSE THE CORRECT ANSWER, then explain your reasoning in the RATIONALE section below: Alpha, Beta-plus, Beta-minus and Gamma decay are all different forms of radio-Active decay. A certain radio-isotope emits ONE alpha particle, and its products then emit TWO beta-minus particles in succession. The atomic number of the final resulting nucleus will now change (as compared to your starting nucleus) by
A. zero
B. minus 1
C. minus 2
D. minus 3

- Answer below questions using the relationship between temperature and microscopic kinetic energy. Note: It's not easy to have an intuitive feel for microscopic physical quantities. Use your answer to part (a) to get a sense of how much kinetic energy atoms in the Sun have. Hint What is the average kinetic energy in joules of nitrogen molecules at room temperature (20°C)? The average kinetic energy of nitrogen molecules is Incorrect J.(Note: You can enter numbers in scientific notation by using the "E" notation. e.g. To type in 3.14×10−113.14×10-11, you would type in "3.14E-11".) What is the average kinetic energy in joules of hydrogen atoms on the 5200°C surface of the Sun? The average kinetic energy is Correct J. What is the average kinetic energy of helium atoms in a region of the solar corona where the temperature is 3 × 105 K? The average kinetic energy is Correct J.
