<span>While
treating food with gamma rays kills microorganism by damaging their DNA, the energy
of gamma rays rips off electrons from atoms hence ionizing them (causing free radicals).
However, gamma rays do not make the food atoms radioactive. The body has a natural
mechanism of riding the body of free radicals. However, large quantities of radicals in the body can cause
damage.</span>
Answer:
2-chloro-1-methyl-cyclohex-1,4-diene.
Explanation:
Hello,
In this case, the addition of hydrochloric acid acts as an electrophilic atack in which the hydrogen bonded to the double-bonded carbon connected to the carbon with the methyl substitution is substituted by the chlorine from the hydrochloric acid, in such a way, 2-chloro-1-methyl-cyclohex-1,4-diene is produced as one equivalent of HCl is used therefore one substitution will be attained for chlorine, and hydrogen as a side product as shown on the attached picture.
Best regards.
Reduction reactions are those reactions that reduce the oxidation number of a substance. Hence, the product side of the reaction must contain excess electrons. The opposite is true for oxidation reactions. When you want to determine the potential difference expressed in volts between the cathode and anode, the equation would be: E,reduction - E,oxidation.
To cancel out the electrons, the e- in the reactions must be in opposite sides. To do this, you reverse the equation with the negative E0, then replacing it with the opposite sign.
Pb(s) --> Pb2+ +2e- E0 = +0.13 V
Ag+ + e- ---> Ag E0 = +0.80 V
Adding up the E0's would yield an overall electric cell potential of +0.93 V.
