Chemistry

Answer:

The ascending order is

gamma < beta > alpha.

Explanation:

the ionizing power of radioactive particles is the ability to remove electron from the matter (here the air).

The ionizing power is directly related to the size or mass of the radioactive particle.

Out of the most three common radioactive particles, Alpha particles are heaviest one and considered to be thousands times heaver than beta particles.  Thus alpha particles have the greater ionization ability among the three. Then the beta particles are heavier than gamma particles thus the gamma particles have least power to ionize.

Assume that 13.5 g solid aluminum (Al) react with HCl to produce solid aluminum chloride (AlCl3) salt and gaseous hydrogen (H2)
ryzh [129]
The balance chemical reaction is
<span><span>2Al + 6HCl  -</span>à 2AlCl3 + 3H2</span> A
ssuming excess amount of HCl because it is not given  
Mole Al reacted = 13.5 g ( 1 mole/ 27 g)
= 0.5 mole Al  

Mole H2 = 0.5 mol Al ( 3 mole H2 / 2 mole Al) <span> =
0.75 mole H2</span>  

since at STP then 1 mole gas occupies 22.414 L
volume H2 = 0.75 mole (22.414 L / mol)
<span>= 16.8105 L H2</span>
