What are three ways in which we can limit our exposure to radiation

Chemistry

Nastasia [14]3 years ago

Three ways to limit our exposure to radiation would be "time", "distance" and "shielding".

Time references how much time you're being exposed to the radiation. Example, in the sun. Limit the time you're outside. In an x-ray exam room, they try and get you out very quickly.

Distance references how close you are to the radiation. Again, in an x-ray room, they try and keep the radiation as far away from you.

Shielding would be to block yourself with lead (x-ray) or sunscreen (for sun exposure) to help protect you for further exposure.

Leokris [45]

Answer:MnCO3+2H2O----->MnO2+ HCO3-+2e-+3H+

Explanation:The equation to be balanced is

MnCO3 ------> MnO2+HCO3-

The oxidation number of Mn changes from +2 in MnCO3 to +4 in MnO2

Therefore two electrons must be added to the right as shown below:

MnCO3 -------> MnO2+ HCO3-+ 2e-Now,there is one negative charge HCO3- and 1 negative charge on the two electrons making a total of -3 charges on the right. There is zero charge on the left.

To balance the equation,add3H+on the right,to cancel out the charges.

MnCO3 --------> MnO2+HCO3-+2e-+3H+

Adding H2O to balance Hydrogen and Oxygen atoms:

MnCO3+2H2O ------->MnO2+HCO3-+2e-+3H+
