Challenges we will face terraforming Mars

Because Mars has no atmosphere, astronauts will be exposed to high levels of cosmic radiation which could cause cancer or death. The lack of atmosphere also produces severe weather - very high and low temperature as well as very high wind speeds. Astronauts will likely have to live nearby caves or underground until an atmosphere can be formed due to these elements.

Answer : option a) 84explanation :

considering the question as per the attachment

here we can see that the radon nuclide has 222 as the atomic mass number and 86 as the atomic number.

when it undergoes nuclear fission it gives polonium which has atomic mass number as 218 and atomic number will be 84 along with a helium nucleus which has 4 atomic mass number and 2 as its atomic number.

222 = 218 + 4 (atomic mass number)

86 = ? + 2; therefore ? = 86-2 = 84.

the atomic mass number of polonium will be 84.

Do you have any options for this question?
