Radioactivity ionizes cells in the body

 Hence, it is less preferrable to choose an isotope to enter your body, which will emit radioactivity for a long time, so we tend to choose isotopes, the radioactivity of which ceases quickly, so that the least possible amount of damage is caused to the cells

What is the [ch3co2-]/[ch3co2h] ratio necessary to make a buffer solution with a ph of 4.34? ka = 1.8 × 10-5 for ch3co2h?
xeze [42]
According to Henderson–Hasselbalch Equation,

                                    pH  =  pKa + log [Acetate] / [Acetic Acid]

As,
           pKa = -log Ka
           pKa = -log (1.8 × 10⁻⁵)
           pKa =  4.74
So,
                               pH  =  4.74 + log [Acetate] / [Acetic Acid]

                                  4.34  =  4.74 + log [Acetate] / [Acetic Acid]

                        4.34 - 4.74  = log [Acetate] / [Acetic Acid]

                                 -0.40  =  log [Acetate] / [Acetic Acid]

Taking Antilog on both sides,

               [Acetate] / [Acetic Acid]  =  0.398

A kno3 solution containing 51 g of kno3 per 100.0 g of water is cooled from 40 ∘c to 0 ∘c. what will happen during cooling?
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

As, the temperature decreased from 40.0 °C to 0.0 °C an amount will be recrystallized and precipitated as solid crystals in the water (51.0 g - 14.0 g = 37.0 g) and 14.0 g will be dissolved in water.

Explanation:

  • Firstly, we must mention that:

The solubility of KNO₃ per 100.0 g of water at 40.0 °C = 63.0 g.

The solubility of KNO₃ per 100.0 g of water at 0.0 °C = 14.0 g.

  • So, at 40.0 °C, 51.0 g of KNO₃ will be completely dissolved in water.
  • <em>As, the temperature decreased from 40.0 °C to 0.0 °C an amount will be recrystallized and precipitated as solid crystals in the water (51.0 g - 14.0 g = 37.0 g) and 14.0 g will be dissolved in water.</em>
