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.

viktelen [127]

Answer: The solution is a SATURATED solution.

Explanation:

Although most substances are soluble in water, some are more soluble than others,that is , their solubilities differ. SOLUBILITY is a means of comparing the extent to which different solutes can dissolve in a particular solvent at a definite temperature.

From the question above, when water was added to the sodium acetate in the flask, SOME of the chemical dissolved into the water, meaning that some remained undissolved. This is because a given volume of water can only dissolve a certain amount of chemical in it at room temperature. If more chemical is added to such a solution, the chemical will remain undissolved. Such a chemical solution is said to be a SATURATED SOLUTION.

A saturated solution of a solute at a particular temperature is on which contains as much solute as it can dissolve at that temperature in the presence of undissolved solute particles.

Unsaturated solution is a type of solution that dissolves all its solutes with no presence of undissolved solute.

Supersaturated solution is one which contains more of the solute than it can normally hold at that temperature. It is an unstable solution which crystallizes out when disturbed.

A jar is filled with water, and the lid is closed tightly. The jar is kept at constant temperature. What happens at the surface
Katarina [22]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The correct answer is A: Water molecules evaporate and condense at the same rate.

<h2>Why?</h2>

Evaporation is defined as the physical change from liquid to gas, and Condensation is the physical change from gas to liquid.

At any given temperature, these two processes occur at once, in a dynamic equilibrium.

When the lid is closed, evaporation occurs faster than condensation, and pressure increases. Then, when pressure reaches a critical value, condensation starts to occur faster than evaporation, until an equilibrium is reached, and the pressure of the water molecules in the gas phase is maximum for that temperature. The pressure at that point is called Vapor Pressure.

Have a nice day!

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: We are asked to find the distance covered by a man in 15 minutes at a speed of 16 km/hr. 15 minutes = 15/60 hour. Therefore, the person can run 4 km in 15 minutes.
