Determine the pH of a 0.015 M HNO3 solution.

0.015 M HNO3 = 0.015 M H3O+ pH = -log(0.015) = 1.82 [OH -] = 1.0 x 10 -14/0.015 M = 6.7 x 10 13 Check: HNO3 is a strong acid, so we expect the pH to be low and the [OH ] to be small

it is to be noted that an alpha particle is an helium nucleus. so it contains 2 protons 2 neutrons and has a mass number of 4. when alpha decay particles are ejected from the nucleus it gets transformed into an atom which has atomic number less than 2 and a mass number less than 4.

an equation that could represent alpha decay is radium 226 decay of alpha particle forms radon 222.
