Answer:
a. forming ions, causing reactions that mutate DNA
Explanation:
Ionizing radiation is a type of energy released by atoms in the form of electromagnetic waves or particles. The spontaneous decay of atoms is called radioactivity, and the surplus energy emitted is a form of ionizing radiation. The unstable elements that decay and emit ionizing radiation are called radionuclides.
Exposure of a human being to certain doses of ionizing radiation can cause irreparable changes in the structure of their DNA, that is, in the genes that control the function of cells, and therefore cause a series of changes that can lead to a cancer.
Answer:
One.
Explanation:
this is the structure of lithium which has valency 1 .Valency means no.electrons present in outermost shell or needed electrons to complete octet
Answer:
Explanation:
in a combustion of ethane 2 moles of ethane react with 7 moles of O2
now no of moles in 54 gram of O2=mass/ molar mass
moles =54/32=1.7 moles
if 7 moles of O2 required 2 moles of ethane then 1.7 mole required=?
7 moles of O2=2 moles of C2H6
1.7 moles of O2=1.7*2/7=0.5 moles of C2H6
0.5 moles of C2H6 contain how much grams=?
mass= moles*molar mass=0.5*30=15
Answer:
d) The dilution equation works because the number of moles remains the same.
Explanation:
Let’s say that you have 1 mol of a solute in I L of solution. The concentration is 1 mol·L⁻¹. and <em>M</em>₁<em>V</em>₁ = 1 mol.
Now, you dilute the solution to a volume of 2 L. You still have 1 mol of solute, but in 2 L of solution. The new concentration is 0.5 mol·L⁻¹.
The volume has doubled, but the volume has halved, and <em>M</em>₂<em>V</em>₂ = 1 mol.
b) <em>Wrong</em>. The molar concentration changes on dilution.
c) <em>Wrong</em>. The volume changes on dilution.
a) <em>Wrong</em>, although technically correct, because if the moles don’t change, the mass doesn’t change either. However, the formula <em>M</em>₁<em>V</em>₁ has units mol·L⁻¹ × L = mol. Thus, in the formula, it is moles that are constant.
