Textbook Question
Chapter 1, Problem 1.29CP
Isotope A decays to isotope E through the following series of steps, in which the products of the individual decay events are themselves radioactive and undergo further decay until a stable nucleus is ultimately reached. Two kinds of processes are represented, one by the shorter arrows pointing right and the other by the longer arrows pointing left.
- (a) What kind of nuclear decay process does each kind of arrow correspond to?
- (b) Identify and write the symbol

Sketching a described thermodynamic change on a phase diagram
The pressure on a sample of pure X held at 47. °C and 0.88 atm is increased until the sample condenses. The pressure is then held constant and the
temperature is decreased by 82. °C. On the phase diagram below draw a path that shows this set of changes.
