Answer : The correct option is, only alpha particles.

Explanation :

Penetration power : It is defined as the movement of the rays or the particles through the object.  As more the energy of a particle, the more will be the penetrating power.

The ascending or increasing order of the penetration power of the particles will be :

Alpha rays < Beta rays < Gamma rays

The penetrating power of the particles alpha, beta and gamma rays varies differently.

  • The alpha particles can be stopped by the paper, cloth, human skin.
  • The beta particles can pass through the paper, cloth, human skin but it can not pass through the aluminum foil.
  • The blocking of gamma rays is very difficult. It can be stopped only by concrete, lead, or other heavy shielding.

Hence, the particles can be stopped by human skin is only alpha particles.

A 30ml sample of a liquid has a mass of 50 grams. What is the density of the liquid?
mash [69]

Answer:

<h2>Density = 1.67 g/mL</h2>

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

Density =  \frac{mass}{volume}

From the question

mass = 50 g

volume = 30 mL

Substitute the values into the above formula and solve for the density

That's

Density =  \frac{50}{30}  \\  =  \frac{5}{3}  \\  = 1.66666...

Wr have the final answer as

<h3>Density = 1.67 g/mL</h3>

Hope this helps you

Which of these methods could be used to separate an insoluble solid from a soluble solid? Melting the mixture and then using a f
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer : The correct option is "Mixing the mixture with water, filtering out the insoluble solid, and then evaporating the water to isolate the soluble solid.

Explanation :

"The given mixture contains a soluble solid and an insoluble solid.

When water is added to this mixture, the soluble solid will get dissolved in water whereas the insoluble solid will remain as it is.

This will give us a heterogeneous mixture where we can see 2 distinct phases , one containing the dissolved solid and the other having undissolved solid.

In order to separate these 2 phases, we can use a simple filtration method.

When the mixture is filtered, we will get solution having soluble solid and the insoluble solid will remain on the filter paper.

This will separate the 2 solids.

To regenerate the dissolved solid, we can evaporate the water by heating it. This will give us back our original soluble solid.

Therefore, the only option that is consistent with this method is "Mixing the mixture with water, filtering out the insoluble solid, and then evaporating the water to isolate the soluble solid"
