Making repeated separations of the various substances in the pitchblende, Marie and Pierre used the Curie electrometer to identify the most radioactive fractions. They thus discovered that two fractions, one containing mostly bismuth and the other containing mostly barium, were strongly radioactive.
<h3>What was surprising about pitchblende?</h3>
Since it was no longer appropriate to call them “uranic rays,” Marie proposed a new name: “radioactivity.”
Even more surprising, Marie next found that a uranium ore called pitchblende contained two powerfully radioactive new elements: polonium, which she named for her native Poland, and radium.
<h3>Why is radium more radioactive than uranium?</h3>
It is 2.7 million times more radioactive than the same molar amount of natural uranium (mostly uranium-238), due to its proportionally shorter half-life.

15.3 litres of water will be produced if we take 1.7 litres of Hydrogen
Explanation:
Let's take a look over synthesis reaction;
<u> </u>
<u />
<u>Balancing the chemical reaction;</u>
<u> </u>
<u />
Thus, 2 moles of hydrogen molecules are required to form 2 moles of water molecules.
<u>Equating the molarity;</u>
<u />
= 
(Since, the molecular mass of hyd and water is 2 and 18 respectively)
x=
x= 15.3 litres.
Thus,15.3 L of water will be produced if we take 1.7 litres of Hydrogen in a synthesis reaction.
Stirring this is because the three elements are factors affecting dissolving of a solvent. Eg temprature affects in hotness or coldness, Particle size affects whether it is big or small while quantity of soluble affects by the amount
Your answer is D. 8
16 = 2^4
72 = 2^3*3^2
So you'll choose 2^3 = 8
