Answer:

A.

Explanation:

A toxic substance is a substance that can cause some harmful effects when a person is exposed to it. The sum of all adverse effects is called the toxicity of a substance. As higher is the toxicity, as dangerous is the substance. The effects can be observed in the mouth, the eyes, the skin, the tract respiratory, the brain, etc.

A substance or agent that can interfere with normal embryonic development is called teratogenic.

A substance or agent capable of causing or producing cancer in mammals is called carcinogenic.

The dose found to be lethal in 50 percent of a group of test animals when administered by the specified route is called LD50 (Lethal Dose 50).

At 700 K, the reaction2SO2(g) + O2(g) 2SO3(g)has the equilibrium constant Kc = 4.3 x 106, and the following concentrations are p
dedylja [7]

Explanation:

The given reaction is as follows.

       2SO_{2} + O_{2}(g) \rightarrow 2SO_{3}(g)

Value of equilibrium constant is given as K_{c} = 4.3 \times 10^{6}[/tex].

Concentration of given species is [SO_2] = 0.010 M; [SO_3] = 10.M; [O_2] = 0.010 M.

Formula for experimental value of equilibrium constant (Q) is as follows.

             Q = \frac{[SO_{3}]^{2}}{[SO_{2}]^{2}[O_{2}]}

Putting the given concentration as follows.

              Q = \frac{[SO_{3}]^{2}}{[SO_{2}]^{2}[O_{2}]}

             Q = \frac{(10)^{2}}{(0.010)^{2}(0.010)}

              Q = 10^{8}

It is known that when Q > K_{eq}, then reaction moves in the backward direction.

When Q < K_{eq}, then reaction moves in the forward direction.

When Q = K_{eq}, then reaction is at equilibrium.

As, for the given reaction Q > K_{eq} then it means reaction moves in the backward direction.

Thus, we can conclude that the reaction is moving in the backward direction, that is, right to left to reach the equilibrium.

Define adhesion and give an example?
bulgar [2K]

Similar to Cohesion, adhesion is the attraction between molecules of different substances . Water uses adhesion when it's attraction to another substance is greater than the water's attraction to itself. if you have ever dropped a cup of water on a hardwood floor,you know that it spreads out instead of foaming beads.

2. The density of helium is 1.78 X 104 g/cm. What is this<br> density in Dg/um??
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

d=1.78\times 10^{-7}\ Dg/\mu m^3

Explanation:

Given,

The density of Helium is 1.78\times 10^4\ g/cm^3

We need to find the density in Dg/μm

We know that,

1 g = 10 dg

1 cm³ = 10¹² μm³

So,

d=1.78 \times 10^4\ g/cm^3\\\\=1.78 \times 10^4\times \dfrac{10\ dg}{10^{12}\ \mu m^3}\\\\=1.78\times 10^{-7}\ Dg/\mu m^3

So, the density of Helium is equal to 1.78\times 10^{-7}\ Dg/\mu m^3.
