Answer;

D) Gamma ray

Explanation;

-Electromagnetic Waves may help fight Brain cancer. The use of electromagnetic radiations or waves to treat cancer is called radiation therapy, in which cancer treatment uses high doses of radiations to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors.

-Gamma rays or gamma radiations are the main electromagnetic radiations used for this radiation therapy.

If the concentration of Mg2+ in the solution were 0.039 M, what minimum [OH−] triggers precipitation of the Mg2+ ion? (Ksp=2.06×
Elodia [21]

Answer:

2.30 × 10⁻⁶ M

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Concentration of Mg²⁺ ([Mg²⁺]): 0.039 M

Solubility product constant of Mg(OH)₂ (Ksp): 2.06 × 10⁻¹³

Step 2: Write the reaction for the solution of Mg(OH)₂

Mg(OH)₂(s) ⇄ Mg²⁺(aq) + 2 OH⁻(aq)

Step 3: Calculate the minimum [OH⁻] required to trigger the precipitation of Mg²⁺ as Mg(OH)₂

We will use the following expression.

Ksp = 2.06 × 10⁻¹³ = [Mg²⁺] × [OH⁻]²

[OH⁻] = 2.30 × 10⁻⁶ M

If 10.00 g of iron metal is burned in the presence of excess of O2 how many grams of Fe2O3 will form
sergiy2304 [10]

14.292 grams of Fe2O3 is formed when 10 gram of iron metal is burned.

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the reaction is to be known so that number of moles taking part can be known.

The balanced chemical equation is

4Fe + 3O_{2}⇒ 2 Fe{2}O{3}

From the given weight of iron to be used for the production of Fe{2}O{3}, number of moles of Fe taking part in the reaction can be known by the formula:

Number of moles= mass ÷ Atomic mass of one mole of the element.

(Atomic weight of Fe is 55.845 gm/mole)

  Putting the values in equation  

Number of moles =  10 gm  ÷ 55.845 gm/mole

                               =  0.179 moles

Applying the stoichiometry concept

4 moles of Fe gives 2 Moles of Fe2O3

0.179 moles will produce x moles of Fe2O3

 So,  2÷ 4 = x ÷ 0.179

     2/4 = x/ 0.179

    2 × 0.179 = 4x

     2 × 0.179 / 4 = x

  x = 0.0895 moles

So from 10 grams of iron metal 0.0895 moles of Fe2O3 is formed.

Now the formula used above will give the weight of Fe2O3

weight = atomic weight × number of moles

            =  159.69 grams ×  0.0895

             = 14.292 grams of Fe2O3 formed.

Baking soda and antacid tablets are examples of two common__________
attashe74 [19]

Bases

A base is a substance that dissociates into more hydroxide ions (-OH-) when dissolved in water. Bases are also good proton acceptors. Bases, therefore, reduce the number of H+ and increase OH- hence raising the pH of the solution.

B(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇌ BH⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq)

Explanation:

Other properties of bases is that they are bitter to the taste and they feel slippery when touched. Strong bases are nonthlese very corrosive like acids. Bases turn red litmus paper blue. Most alkali hydroxides such as NaOH are bases.

Determine whether each molecule given below is polar or nonpolar. of2
sergejj [24]

Answer : The molecule OF_2 is a polar molecule.

Explanation :

Polar molecule : When the arrangement of the molecule is asymmetrical then the molecule is polar.

Non-polar molecule : When the arrangement of the molecule is symmetrical then the molecule is non-polar.

The given molecule is, OF_2

The electronegativities of oxygen and fluorine are different. The molecular geometry of OF_2 is bent. As, Fluorine is more elctronegative than the oxygen. So, the arrows putting towards the more electronegative element i.e, fluorine. These arrows do not balance each other. Due to this, the asymmetrical arrangement of these bonds makes the molecule polar.

Hence, the given molecule OF_2 is polar.
