Explanation:
The standard entropy change of a reaction has a positive value. This reaction results in an increase in entropy.
Positive entropy means the system has increased its degree of disorderness.

Explanation:
Before the advent of the wave-particle duality theory proposed by Louis de Broglie, there was a sharp distinction between mater and waves.
However, Louis de Broglie introduced the idea that mater could display wave-like properties. Erwin Schrödinger developed this idea into what is now known as the wave mechanical model of the atom.
In this model, electrons are regarded as waves. We can only determine the probability of finding the electron within certain high probability regions within the atom called orbitals.
This idea has been the longest surviving atomic model and has greatly increased our understanding of atoms.
Answer:
0.07172 L = 7.172 mL.
Explanation:
- We can use the general law of ideal gas: <em>PV = nRT.
</em>
where, P is the pressure of the gas in atm (P = 1.0 atm, Standard P).
V is the volume of the gas in L (V = ??? L).
n is the no. of moles of the gas in mol (n = 3.2 x 10⁻³ mol).
R is the general gas constant (R = 0.0821 L.atm/mol.K),
T is the temperature of the gas in K (T = 273 K, Standard T).
<em>∴ V = nRT/P =</em> (3.2 x 10⁻³ mol)(0.0821 L.atm/mol.K)(273 K)/(1.0 atm) = <em>0.07172 L = 7.172 mL.</em>
Answer:
Here's what I find.
Explanation:
Iodine-131
Iodine-131 is both a beta emitter and a gamma emitter.

About 90 % of the energy is β-radiation and 10 % is γ-radiation. Both forms are highly energetic.
The main danger is from ingestion. The iodine concentrates in thyroid gland, where the β-radiation destroys cells up to 2 mm from the tissues that absorbed it.
Both the β- and γ-radiation cause cell mutations that can later become cancerous. Small doses, such as those absorbed from the nuclear disasters in the Ukraine and Japan, can cause cancers years after the original iodine has disappeared.
Plutonium-239
Plutonium-239 is an alpha emitter.

Alpha particles cannot penetrate the skin, so external exposure isn't much of a health risk.
However, they are extremely dangerous when they are inhaled and get inside cells. They travel first to the blood or lymph system and later to the bone marrow and liver, where they cause up to 1000 times more chromosomal damage than beta or gamma rays.
It takes about 20 years for plutonium to be eliminated from the liver around 50 years for from the skeleton, so it has a long time to cause damage.
