The correct answer is D. Using the law of conservation of mass the number of atoms on each side of the equation should be equal. Through introspection, we find that there are 2Cl atoms on reactant side as opposed 3Cl atoms on product side. If we add a coefficient of 3 on Cl_2 we get

Fe + 3Cl_2 ==> FeCl_3.

Now there are 6Cl atoms on reactant side and 2 on product side, hence we add a coefficient of 2 on both FeCl_3 and Fe. The balanced chemical equation is,

2Fe + 3Cl_2 ==> 2FeCl_3

In a diagnostic test for leukemia, a person receives 4.1 mL of a solution containing selenium-75. If the activity of the seleniu
Tcecarenko [31]

To solve this problem, we can simply calculate for the dose by multiplying the volume of solution containing Selenium 75 and the activity of the Selenium 75. That is:

dose = 4.1 mL * (45 μCi/mL)

dose = 184.5 μCi
