Therac-25, AECL was able to reduce costs by replacing hardware safety features with software controls.

the Therac-25 was a laptop-controlled radiation therapy machine produced by Atomic energy state Canada limited in 1982 after the Therac-6 and Therac-20 units. It was involved in at least six accidents between 1985 and 1987, in which patients were given massive overdoses state radiation.

The Therac-25 machine was a state-of-the-art linear accelerator developed by using the company Atomic strength Canada restricted (AECL) and a French company CGR to provide radiation treatment to cancer sufferers. The Therac-25 become the most computerized and complicated radiation therapy device state its time.

Sugar dissolves readily in water because it is a(n) ____ substance.
Mnenie [13.5K]
The answer to this question would be D. Hydrophilic.

The word hydrophilic mean attracted by water. That means the molecule has a force to attract water molecule, thus be able to dissolve in water.  The polarity of the molecule would determine whether a molecule hydrophilic or not.
Its opposite would be hydrophobic which the molecule can't dissolve in water.  One example of this would be oil or fat. That is why sometimes it is called lipophilic too.

If a gas has a volume of 1000 ML at a temperature of 23°C and a pressure of 100 mmhg, what is it’s volume under standard conditi
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

119.7 mL.

Explanation:

  • From the general law of ideal gases:

<em>PV = nRT.</em>

where, P is the pressure of the gas.

V is the volume of the container.

n is the no. of moles of the gas.

R is the general gas constant.

T is the temperature of the gas (K).

  • For the same no. of moles of the gas at two different (P, V, and T):

<em>P₁V₁/T₁ = P₂V₂/T₂.</em>

  • P₁ = 100.0 mmHg, V₁ = 1000.0 mL, T₁ = 23°C + 273 = 296 K.
  • P₂ = 1.0 atm = 760.0 mmHg (standard P), V₂ = ??? mL, T₂ = 0.0°C + 273 = 273.0 K (standard T).

<em>∴ V₂ = (P₁V₁T₂)/(T₁P₂) </em>= (100.0 mmHg)(1000.0 mL)(273.0 K)/(296 K)(760.0 mmHg) =  121.4 <em>mL.</em>

how much heat will be absorbed by 25g of chloroform when its temperature started at 67.0C and after it was 112.0C
snow_tiger [21]

Hello friend ☺

ΔH = MCΔT

ΔH = to the amount of energy or change in energy (J)

mass of water

C = waters specific heat capacity

ΔT = change in temperature

and so ΔH = 25 × 4.18 × ( 112-67 ) J = 4702.5 J

Thanks ❤
