Answer:
The correct answer is option b, that is, the radioactive isotope reacts in the same way as stable isotopes in the chemical reactions in the body.
Explanation:
The carbon-14 atoms, which are created by the cosmic rays associates with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide that plants captivate naturally and comprise it into plant fibers by the process of photosynthesis. Afterward, the plants are consumed by animals and human beings, thus, they take in carbon-14 as well.
The ratio of usual carbon-12 to carbon-14 in the air and in all the living species at a particular period is almost the same. These radioactive isotopes react in a similar manner as stable isotopes in the chemical reactions in the body.
Answer:
Pure solid and liquid compounds possess sharp melting and boiling points.
Explanation:
Therefore, melting and boiling points of a compound can be used as a criteria of purity. ... Sometimes during cooling minute quantity of the substance (solid which is being purified) is added to the solution to facilitate the initial crystallisation.
Answer:
This question is incomplete, however, the unknown compound can be inferred to be "Lithium Bromide"
Explanation:
The unknown compound firstly is said to be an ionic compound. An ionic/electrovalent compound is a compound in which it's constituent ions transfer/receive electron(s). They are mostly made of group 1 and group 7 elements. Examples include NaCl, NaF, LiF and KCl.
Also, the ion (metallic ion) that produces a red flame test colour in a flame test is the <u>Lithium ion (Li⁺).</u> Also, when dissolved in water or hexane, the only halogen that produces a red/orange colour is bromine. Hence, the unknown ionic compound can be inferred to be Lithium Bromide.
