Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: radioactive decay processes increases nuclear stability must be explained with the help of chart of nuclides.

Concept introduction:

  • Nuclear decay takes place to increase nuclear stability.
  • All nuclear decay processes have mass defect which contributes for binding energy.
  • Different nuclide follow different nuclear disintegration modes like alpha decay, beta decay, positron emission and K electron capture depending on the n/p ration of the nuclide.

State the difference between concrete and Portland cement.(a) There are no differences, in concrete the chemical composition is silicates and in cement aluminates.(b) The chemical composition of concrete is based on silicates and in cement aluminates.(c) Concrete is composed of aggregates bound by cement and cement "only" contains different minerals.(d) Cement is aggregates bound by concrete.
Amorphous polymers are usually transparent and semi-crystalline polymers are usually opaque. Correct?(a) No. They are all made up of polymer chains. True if they were monomers.(b) Yes. The arrangement of the chains determines the passage of light.(c) No. It is the other way around.(d) Crystallinity or amorphousness does not affect the transparency or opacity of the material.
The name ferrites refers to a family of(a) ceramic materials that exhibit ferrimagnetic behavior due to their ionic composition.(b) polymeric materials that exhibit ferrimagnetic behavior due to their ionic composition.(c) concrete-based materials that exhibit ferrimagnetic behavior due to their ionic composition.(d) superconducting materials that exhibit ferrimagnetic behavior due to their ionic composition.
