True! examples of electromagnetic energy are radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, x-ray and gamma rays!

Hey there! :D

This is a true statement. Gamma radiation comes from electromagnetic energy from radioactive decay. This decay has the shortest electromagnetic wave lengths and therefore has the highest photon energy. It is extremely dangerous. Radiation in general is something to be cautious of!

I hope this helps!

Which of the following properties would be the same among isotopes of the same element?
Viefleur [7K]

Answer : The properties which would be the same among isotopes of the same element are Flammability and Color

Explanation :

Isotopes are the elements that have same number of electrons and protons but they differ in number of neutrons.

The chemical properties of an element are determined by its valence electrons and since isotope have same number of electrons, they have similar chemical properties.

But isotopes have different number of neutrons. Neutrons are the subatomic particles which are present in the nucleus. They are charge less particles and they have mass. Therefore when the elements have different number of neutrons, their atomic masses differ.

As a result, isotopes have different mass related physical properties.

Let us discuss the given properties now

1) Flammability : Flammability in simple words means the ability of the substance to catch fire or the ability to burn. This is mainly dependent on the reactivity which is in turn dependent on the number of electrons.

Since the isotopes have same number of electrons, they show similar flammability.

2) Density : Density is defined as mass per unit volume. This property involves mass and we know that isotopes have different masses. Therefore they have different densities too.

3) Melting point : Melting point is a physical property which is mainly dependent on the molecular weight of the substance. Since isotopes have different masses, they tend to show different melting points.

4) Color : The color of the element is mainly dependent on the arrangement of electrons around the nucleus. Isotopes have same number of electrons which means the arrangement would also be the same. Therefore the isotopes of the same element do not show different colors.

The properties which would be same among isotopes of the same element are

1) Flammability

4) Color

A typical person has an average heart rate of 75.0 beats/min. Calculate the following a)How many beats does she have in 7.0 year
hram777 [196]

Let us first convert years to minute.

7 years * (365 days / year) * (24 hours / day) * (60 minutes / hour) = 3,679,200 minutes

 

a. beats = 75.0 beats/min * 3,679,200 minutes

beats = 275,940,000 beats

Since the original given is 7.0 years (2 significant figures), therefore:

beats = 270,000,000 beats

 

b beats = 75.0 beats/min * 3,679,200 minutes

beats = 275,940,000 beats

Since the original given is 7.000 years (4 significant figures), therefore:

<span>beats = 275,900,000 beats</span>

How can a person reduce consumption of natural resources when drinking water? Assume that you are not going to change the amount
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

It will reduce the natural resources by not littering, putting trash in the recycle bin or trash bin. I will also keep drinking the normal amount a day which would be 3-4 bottles of water.  I will also not throw my trash on the ground or any thing like that it will stay with me until i'm near a trash can.   If you litter than you are ki**ing a poor innocent animal or mammal so please don't litter.

Explanation:

l'm sorry if its wrong but hope it helps you

What is the correct equation for the reaction quotient of the following reaction? 2Fe3+(aq) + Zn(s) ⇌ 2Fe2+(aq) + Zn2+(aq)
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Explanation:

A reaction quotient is defined as the ratio of concentration of products over reactants raised to the power of their stoichiometric coefficients.

A reaction quotient is denoted by the symbol Q.

For example, 2Fe^{3+}(aq) + Zn(s) \rightleftharpoons 2Fe^{2+}(aq) + Zn^{2+}(aq)

The reaction quotient for this reaction is as follows.

            Q = \frac{[Fe^{2+}]^{2}[Zn^{2+}]}{[Fe^{3+}]^{2}}

[Zn] will be equal to 1 as it is present in solid state. Therefore, we don't need to write it in the reaction quotient expression.
