Which is the correct ascending order for radioactive particles with regard to their ability to ionize air?

Chemistry

Llana [10]3 years ago

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.

Answer:

The bee's energy output can be calculated directly, and related to its size. it only needs enough air resistance to counter its weight and enough power in its wings to sustain this resistance. it bee like that.

You have identified a substance to be solid in nature. which characteristics will justify your identification?
weeeeeb [17]
This question includes four answer choices: A. definite volume, highest molecular motion, highest kinetic energy B. indefinite volume, least molecular motion, highest kinetic energy C. definite volume, least molecular motion, lowest kinetic energy D. definite volume, no molecular motion, lowest kinetic energy Solids do not have the highest molecular motion (on the contrary they have the least molecular motion), so you can discard option A. Solids have a definite volume and the highest kinetic energy (given that they have the least molecular motion), so you discard option C. Molecules always have a vibrational motion, so you discard option D. Option C, have only characteristics that correctly describes a solid: definite volume, least molecular motion, lowest kinetic energy. Therefore, the answer is the option C. <span /><span>

What pressure, in atm, is exerted by 2.50 L of gas containing 1.35 mol at 320 K?
salantis [7]

Answer:

Option A = 14.19 atm

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of gas = 2.50 L

Number of moles of gas = 1.35 mol

Temperature of gas = 320 K

Pressure of gas = ?

Solution:

The given problem will be solve by using general gas equation,

PV = nRT

P= Pressure

V = volume

n = number of moles

R = general gas constant = 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K  

T = temperature in kelvin

Now we will put the values in formula.

P × 2.50 L =  1.35 mol × 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K×   320

P = 35.467 atm.L/ 2.50 L

P = 14.19 atm

Thus, option A is correct.

NaOH and bleach have several characteristics in common. They include all BUT one of the characteristics listed.
navik [9.2K]
Sodium hydroxide and bleach have several characteristics in common and that includes: both can conduct electricity in solution, both can be found in the cleaning products and they are able to produce hydroxide ions in solution. However, their pH are not less than 7. Sodium hydroxide has a pH of 13, while bleach has a pH of 11. Therefore, both of them has a pH greater than 7. So the characteristic that they don't have in common is letter A.
