What effect does nuclear radiation have on atoms?

Chemistry
1 answer:
marishachu [46]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

It ionizes atoms.  

Step-by-step explanation:

There are three types of nuclear radiation:

  • α rays
  • β rays
  • γ rays

All of these have enough energy that they can remove an electron from an atom and cause it to become charged or ionized.

A is <em>wrong</em>. Ionizing radiation does not have enough energy to split atoms.

B is <em>wrong</em>. Nuclear radiation does not involve burning — the reaction of atoms with oxygen.

maria [59]

In the question, we are told that there are;

  • A loaf containing 33 slices
  • A loaf containing 33 slices A package of cheese containing 15 slices

We also know that he is making a sandwich that has 2 pieces of both cheese and bread.

Hence;

Total number of bread and cheese = 33 + 15.

Each loaf should have two pieces of each bread and the cheeses make a total of four pieces.

Therefore he can make = 33 + 15/4 = 12 sandwiches.
