28. Which statement is INCORRECT regarding radiation?
mash [69]

Answer:

Radiation is energy. It can come from unstable atoms that undergo radioactive decay, or it can be produced by machines. Radiation travels from its source in the form of energy waves or energized particles. There are different forms of radiation and they have different properties and effects.

Non-Ionizing and Ionizing Radiation

There are two kinds of radiation: non-ionizing radiation and ionizing radiation.

Non-ionizing radiation has enough energy to move atoms in a molecule around or cause them to vibrate, but not enough to remove electrons from atoms. Examples of this kind of radiation are radio waves, visible light and microwaves.

Ionizing radiation has so much energy it can knock electrons out of atoms, a process known as ionization. Ionizing radiation can affect the atoms in living things, so it poses a health risk by damaging tissue and DNA in genes. Ionizing radiation comes from x-ray machines, cosmic particles from outer space and radioactive elements. Radioactive elements emit ionizing radiation as their atoms undergo radioactive decay.

Ionizing radiation can affect the atoms in living things, so it poses a health risk by damaging tissue and DNA in genes.. The ionizing radiation that is emitted can include alpha particles, beta particles and/or gamma raysHelpgamma raysA form of ionizing radiation that is made up of weightless packets of energy called photons. Gamma rays can pass completely through the human body; as they pass through, they can cause damage to tissue and DNA.. Radioactive decay occurs in unstable atoms called radionuclides.

When molten candle wax solidifies is that a chemical reaction or not?l
andrey2020 [161]

Yes, when molten candle wax solidifies it is a chemical reaction

<u>Explanation:</u>

Basically Wax is crystalline so once the candle light melts it freezes taking back the solid state to the room temperature.

When the room temperature is below the freezing point, the liquid candle wax, turns into solid state again, therefore this process is called solidification. The process of freezing or solidification is a process when an object turns liquid and freezes back to solid state.

Indeed, Yes, when molten candle wax solidifies it is a chemical reaction

If an element has 2+ valence electrons, does it transfer only one or more than one valence electrons​
just olya [345]

Answer:

element having 2+ valence electrons can transfer its more than one electron that is 2 electron completely.

Explanation:

  • Group IIA have 2+ valency and two electrons in its valance shell.
  • Its Electropositivity is  high and have the tendency to donate it two electrons.
  • Element  of IIA form ionic with most electronegative element.

Examples:

Cu²⁺, Mg²⁺, Sr²⁺ are examples having  2+ valance electron

one of the following is examples of element that have 2+ valence electrons

MgCl₂

Atomic number of Magnesium (Mg) is 12

Electronic Configuration of Mg:

1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s²

or

K =2

L = 8

M = 2

So, it have to give its 2 electrons to form a stable compound.

Similarly

Chlorine atomic number is 17

Electronic Configuration of Chlorine:

1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁵

or

K =2

L = 8

M = 7

So, it have to gain one electrons to form a stable compound and complete its octet.

So,

Two chlorine atom as a molecule gain 2 electrons from Mg²⁺ atom

So one Mg²⁺ and 2 Cl⁻ atoms form an ionic bond

where in this ionic bond Mg²⁺ transfer its 2 valence electron completely and chlorine molecule accept 2 electrons.

                 Cl-----Mg------Cl

So the Answer is

element having 2+ valence electrons can transfer its more than one electron that is 2 electron completely.
