PLEASE HELP ASAP Barney was a very inventive scientist and tried to perform the same experiments as those by famous scientists from long ago. One of the most challenging experiments was to roll out a very thin film of gold and put X-ray film in a circle around it. The difficult part was to get ahold of some radioactivity that he could shoot at the thin film for gold. One day, he ran into The Great Gazoo and told him his goal. The Great Gazoo said he had the perfect substance for him that was radioactive and should work. The element was named after him and had the symbol Gz. Barney quickly went back to his lab to run the experiment. What Barney noticed is that all the radioactive particles went through the gold film and none of them ricocheted back, but all went straight through the gold. Being puzzled, he quickly went to the lab to analyze this unknown radioactive substance. He found that the atomic number was 119, the mass number was 305. After a few more tests, Barney realized what was wrong with Gz. Your task is to figure out what was wrong with Gz by answering the following questions:
Whose experiment was Barney trying to imitate?
Where would Gz be located on Earth’s periodic table, column and row?
Give as many details on Gz that you could predict based on its location on the periodic table: type of chemical (metal, metalloid, or nonmetal), reactivity, ionization energy, electronegativity, and size of element.
What would the elements electron configuration end in?
Why did all the radioactive particles go straight through the gold film?
What would the daughter product be for Gz? Give all details for the atomic number, mass number, number of protons, neutrons and electrons.
If Gz had worked correctly, like Barney intended, what type of decay should Gz have had?
If Gz had worked correctly, what would the daughter product be? Give all details for the atomic number, mass number, number of protons, neutrons and electrons.
If Gz had worked correctly, what element would it become?
