There are usually 3 topics used to compare types of radiation:
Ionising ability
Penetrative power
Range in air
Ionising ability
Alpha radiation has strong ionising ability, while beta only has moderate ionisation and gamma is very weakly ionising.
Penetrative power
Alpha particles are weakly penetrating, stopped by paper, while beta particles have stronger penetrating ability, stopped by skin and gamma radiation is very strongly penetrating, stopped only by thick layers of lead.
Range in air
Alpha particles- range of only a few centimetres
Beta - range of up to one meter
Gamma- infinite range in air.
Hope this helps:)
When we describe the energy of a particle as quantized, we mean that only certain values of energy are allowed. ... In this case, whenever we measure the particle's energy, we will find one of those values. If the particle is measured to have 4 Joules of energy, we also know how much energy the particle can gain or lose. Quantized energy means that the electrons can possess only certain discrete energy values; values between those quantized values are not permitted
Answer:
energy from the sun that reaches earth
The correct response I believe is D. The reaction rate increases because the probability of collisions increases as there are more Zn atoms to react.
I honestly don’t know sorry
