Is there an advantage in limiting your exposure to a radiation source to the shortest time possible?

Chemistry

Yes. The dangers of exposure to radiation stem from genetic damage. Radiation containing enough energy can degrade bonds in the body, and this can lead to irreparable damage. Limiting exposure time reduces the net amount of radiation received by the body, and thus reduces the amount of damage that could be received.

Lera25 [3.4K]

Question:

A chemistry student needs of 10 g isopropenylbenzene for an experiment. He has available 120 g of a 42.7% w/w solution of isopropenylbenzene in acetone. Calculate the mass of solution the student should use. If there's not enough solution, press the "No solution" button.

Answer:

The answer to the question is as follows

The mass of solution the student should use is 23.42 g.

Explanation:

To solve the question we note the following

A solution containing 42.7 % w/w of isopropenylbenzene in acetone  has 42.7 g of isopropenylbenzene in 100 grams of the solution

Therefore we have 10 g of isopropenylbenzene contained in

100 g * 10 g/ 42.7 g = 23.42 g of solution

Available solution = 120 g

Therefore the quantity to used from the available solution = 23.42 g of the isopropenylbenzene in acetone solution.

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

4.52×10^24

Explanation:

N = n × Na

where; N = no. of bananas

n = no. of moles

Na = Avogadro's constant

Which is 6.02×10^23

N = 7.5 × 6.02×10^23

N =4.515×10^24

djverab [1.8K]
(1) Copper:
Copper has the atomic number : 29
Cu2+ means that it lost 2 electrons, therefore, the total number of electrons is 29-2 = 27 electrons.
The electronic configuration is:
1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 3d9

(2) Silver:
Silver has atomic number : 47
Ag  + means that it lost one electron, therefore, the total number of electrons  is 47-1 = 46 electrons
The electronic configuration is:
