Exposure to high energy waves can be helpful to cells by damaging DNA in cells, meaning if somebody were to have cancer cells it breaks down the bad cells and it can shrink tumor. It can be harmful by damaging skin cells, which we need as our first line of defense. Meaning, it could cause skin cancer. Hope this helped!

Why is boron and beryllium an exception to the octet rule
aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

Beryllium especially, but Boron as well both exhibit metallic characteristics.

The outside ring of Beryllium contains 2 electrons. It would have to take on 6 electrons to have a ring of 8. The same statement can be made about Boron (except that it would need 5 electrons to make 8). It is easier for the atom to give up 2 or 3 than than to take on 5 or 6. It would not be easy to have a 5 or 6 minus charge on it.

Question 1
Tema [17]

Answer:

Synthesis Reaction

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Chemistry - Reactions</u>

  • Synthesis Reactions: A + B → AB
  • Decomposition Reactions: AB → A + B
  • Single-Replacement Reactions: A + BC → AB + C
  • Double-Replacement Reactions: AB + CD → AD + BC

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

RxN:   2Na + I₂ → 2NaI

<u>Step 2: Identify</u>

2Na + I₂ → 2NaI

A + B → AB

  • A = Na
  • B = I₂
  • C = NaI
