What is the penetrating power of beta

Chemistry
1 answer:
zlopas [31]3 years ago
3 0
The penetrating power of alpha rays, beta rays, and gamma rays varies greatly. Alpha particles can be blocked by a few pieces of paper. Beta particles pass through paper but are stopped by aluminum foil. Gamma rays are the most difficult to stop and require concrete, lead, or other heavy shielding to block them.

What must be changed, temperature or heat energy, during condensation explain in 2-3 sentences
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

Change occur in heat energy.

Explanation:

Change occur in the heat energy of molecules during condensation process. The molecules of gas releases its heat energy and converted into liquid state. With this heat energy, they are active and escape from each other but when the heat energy is removed from them, the attractive forces between these gas molecules are formed which convert them into liquid state so change in heat energy occur in the condensation process.

What mass in grams would 5.7L of hydrogen gas occupy at STP?​
tekilochka [14]

Answer:  The correct answer is:  " 0.54 g " .

__________________________________________

Explanation:

Note that "hydrogen gas" is:  

H₂ (g)  ;   that is:  a "diatomic element" (diatomic gas) ;

_________________________________________

The molecular weight of "H" is:  1.00794 g ;

   (From the Periodic Table of Elements).

So, the molecular weight of:  H₂ (g)  is:

    " 1.00794 g * 2  = 2.01588 g ; {use calculator) ;

_________________________________________

Note the conversion for a gas at STP:

______

  1 mol of a gas = 22.4 L gas;

___

i.e. " 1 mol / 22.4 L " ;

____

So:     " 5.7 L H₂ (g)  *  \frac{1 mol H_{2} }{22.4 L} *\frac{2.01588 g}{mol} =? ;

The "L" ("literes" cancel out to "1" ;  since "L/L = 1 ;

The "mol" (moles) cancel out to "1" ; since "mol/mol = 1 ;

____

and we are left with:

____

 [5.7 * 2.104588 g ] / 22.4  =  ?  g ;

______________________

→ [ 11.9961516  g ] / 22.4 =

          0.53554248214  g ;l

_____________________________

We round this value to:  " 0.54 g " ;

 → since "5.7 L " has 2 (two) significant figures;  

     22.4 is an exact number conversion;

     and "5.7 L" has fewer significant figures than:

    " 2.104588 " ; or:  " 1.00794 " .

  → as such: We round to "2 (two) significant figures."

______________________________

Hope this is helpful.  Wishing you the best in your academic endeavors!
