Americium-241 is an alpha emitter used in household smoke detectors and K-40 is a positron emitter used to date rock samples. The daughter nuclides in these two reactions are:

Neptunium - 237 , Argon - 40 .

Explanation:

Americium - 241   ⇒    Neptunium - 237 + alpha particles

²⁴¹₉₅Am    ⇒     ²³⁷₉₃Np  + ⁴₂α

K-40   ⇒  Argon 40 + positron .

⁴⁰₁₉K    ⇒   ⁴⁰₂₀Ar   +   ₁e

the ideal gas law equation is as follows

pv = nrt

where p - pressure

v - volume

n - number of moles

r - universal gas constant

t - temperature

so if the pressure, volume and temperature are already known

we are left with n and r

since r is the universal gas constant that has a known fixed value then r too is known

so we are left with 'n'

once we know temperature volume and pressure

we can find the number of moles of gas present using the ideal gas law equation

this is not my own answer, this is an answer for the same question by the user blahblahmali. i do not claim ownership of this account.

< > according to newton's third law of motion, forces always act in equal but opposite pairs. another way of saying this is for every action, there is an equal but opposite reaction.< >
