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:
See the answer below
Explanation:
<em>The correct answer would be that the solute particles lower the solvent's vapor pressure, thus requiring a higher temperature to cause boiling.</em>
Dissolving a solute particle in a solvent leads to a decrease in the vapor pressure of the solvent above the resulting solution when compared to the pure solvent. The lower the vapor pressure of a liquid, the higher the temperature required for the liquid to boil and vice versa. Hence, a higher temperature would be needed to boil a solvent with dissolved solutes.
86 percent is the percent yield for this experiment if he expected to produce 5g of product.
Explanation:
Given that:
mass of test tube = 5 grams
mass of test tube + reactant is 12.5 grams
mass of reactant = ( mass of test tube + reactant ) - (mass of test tube)
mass of reactant = 12.5 -5
= 7.5 grams
when 7.5 grams of reactant is heated mass of test tube was found to be 9.3 grams.
so mass of product formed = 9.3 - 5
= 4. 3 grams of product is formed (actual yield)
However, he expected the product to be 5 grams (theoretical yield)
Percent yield = 
x 100
putting the values in the formula:
percent yield = 
x 100
= 86 %
86 percent is the percent yield.
Answer:
1.Precipitation
2.Transpiration
3.Condensation
4.Evaporation
5.Evaporation
3.Condensation
Explanation:
Rain pours from the sky occurs due to the process of precipitation, leaves of the plant dried due to the process of transpiration in which the water is evaporated from the body of plant, fluffy clouds form in the sky occurs in the process of condensation, bathing suit dries after swim is due to evaporation in which water is removed and goes into the atmosphere and water puddles disappear due to the process of evaporation. Evaporation is the removal of water from the any surface whereas transpiration is the removal of water from plant body parts.
