Which question must be answered to complete the table below? A 3-column table with 3 rows. Column 1 is labeled alpha decay with entries alpha particles, plus 2 and low. Column 2 is labeled Beta Decay with entries no entry, electron negative 1 positron positive 1, and medium. Column 3 is labeled Gamma decay with entries gamma rays, 0 and high.

a. What kind of shielding will block beta decay?
b. What is the penetrating power of beta decay?
c. What kind of particles are produced by beta decay?
d. How massive are the particles in beta decay?

a. the law of proportion states the combination of 2 atoms in a specific ratio to produce multiple compounds such as the given statement of question ‘1st compound contains 88.8 % cu ’ indicates 88.8 g of cu is present along with 11.2 g oxygen in 100 g of compound whereas the statement ‘2st compound contains 79.9 % cu ’ indicates 79.9 g of cu is present along with 20.1 g oxygen in 100 g of compound

1st compound contains 88.8 g cu

for cu

m = 63 g /mol

atomic % = 88.8 /63 = 1.42

for o

m = 16 g /mol

atomic % = 11.2 /16 = 0.7

b. the emperical formula of 1st compound is

cu1.4o0.7
