Starting from the radon mass, add the mass of the electron, and subtract the mass attributable to the gamma radiation <u>(931 Mev = 1 amu).</u>

<h3>What is gamma radiation?</h3>

Gamma radiation (gamma rays) refers to the part of the electromagnetic spectrum with the most energy and shortest wavelength. Astrophysicists define gamma radiation as any radiation with an energy above 100 keV. Physicists define gamma radiation as high-energy photons released by nuclear decay.

Using the broader definition of gamma radiation, gamma rays are released by sources including gamma decay, lightning, solar flares, matter-antimatter annihilation, the interaction between cosmic rays and matter, and many astronomical sources. Gamma radiation was discovered by Paul Villard in 1900.

Gamma radiation is used to study the universe, treat gemstones, scan containers, sterilize foods and equipment, diagnose medical conditions, and treat some forms of cancer.

What is the density of a sample of rubbing alcohol if it has a specific gravity of 0.789?
ioda
Specific gravity <span> is a dimensionless unit defined as the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of water - at a specified temperature and can be expressed as. SG = ρ</span>substance<span> / ρ</span>H2O<span> . We calculate as follows:

</span>0.789 = ρsubstance / 1000 kg/m^3
ρsubstance = 789 kg / m^3

Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

Calculate the density of gold (in units of g/mL) if a 5.00 cm cube has a mass of 2.41kg
levacccp [35]
The volume of a 5cm cube is 0.5dm*0.5dm*0.5dm = 0.125dm^3
1dm^3 = 1l
So 0.125dm^3 = 125mL
This gives us 2410/125 = 19.28
So the density of gold is 19.28g/mL
Final check: Gold is indeed 19.3g/mL

You’re adding all the atoms together. So for C18H36O2, you would add 18+36+2 to get your product. If there isn’t a number by the element, that means there’s only one atom.
