Gamma radiation have the most penetrating power. It can penetrate through human body, aluminum and other metals. It can be stopped by lead. Hence, the radioactive waste are stored in lead container for safety purposes. The beta ray has more penetrating power than the alpha but less than gamma. The beta radiations can be stopped by aluminum. The alpha radiations have least penetrating power and it can be stopped by human hands.

The partial pressure of CO2 inside a bottle of soft drink is 4.0 atm at 25°C. The solubility of CO2 is 0.12 mol/L. When the bott

We can solve this problem by using Henry's law.
Henry's law states that the amount of dissolved gas is proportional to its partial pressure.
$C=kP$
C is the solubility of a gas.
k is Henry's law constant.
P is the partial pressure of the gas.
We can calculate the constant from the first piece of information and then use Henry's law to calculate solubility in open drink.
0.12=4k
k=0.03
Now we can calculate the solubility in open drink.
$C_o=kP_o
$
$C_o=0.03 \cdot 3\cdot 10^{-4}=0.09\cdot 10^{-4} \frac{mol}{L}$
Now we need to convert it to g/L. One mol of CO2 is 44.01g.
The final answer is:
$C_o=0.09\cdot 10^{-4}\cdot 44,01=3.4\cdot 10^{-4} \frac{g}{L}$
