Neon is noble gas. It is not a metal, or a metalloid. Neon is a non-metal.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
Gamma radiation penetrates the cell wall of prokaryotic organisms such as bacteria and can inhibit their metabolic functions as well as destroy their DNA.
Debunking the other answers:
A is incorrect as Gamma radiation is used in the treatment of cancer via radiotherapy.
B is incorrect as Gamma rays are too small and would just penetrate any smoke particles.
C is incorrect because Gamma rays are used to disinfect food products to prevent food borne illness. Irradiation is safe to use on food and does not make it radioactive.
Thus, D is correct.
Answer:
Gravitional Force
Explanation:
Every planet has a gravitational pull which attracts all objects; the moon is no exception. It says forces in the question but I know for sure gravitational force is apart of it.
Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
The given chemical reaction shows that hydrogen cyanide acid has been added to water which results in the formation of hydronium ion and cyanide ion.
Also, when we add a base like sodium hydroxide (NaOH) to HCN then it will help in accepting a proton (
) from hydrogen cyanide. As a result, formation of
anion will be rapid and easy.
This will make the system not to do any extra work. So, amount of work done by system will decrease.
Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options, add solid NaOH to the reaction (assume no volume change) will decrease the amount of work the system could perform.
