A.) half - life of a radioactive substance is defined as the time during which concentration of the substance becomes half the initial value.
Answer:
moles = no. of molecules / Avogadro's number
= 2.26 x 10^33 / 6.022 x 10^23
= 3752906011
Round to significant figures which is 3 = 3.75 x 10^9 mol
Explanation: The formula for finding how many moles of a substance when given the amount of molecules is: moles = number of molecules / Avogadro's number
The answer would be C. Hope this helps
Gamma radiation have the most penetrating power. It can penetrate through human body, aluminum and other metals. It can be stopped by lead. Hence, the radioactive waste are stored in lead container for safety purposes. The beta ray has more penetrating power than the alpha but less than gamma. The beta radiations can be stopped by aluminum. The alpha radiations have least penetrating power and it can be stopped by human hands.
