Radioactive rays are divided into three, namely alpha rays, beta rays, and gamma rays.  

<em>Check the picture below!</em>

<h2>Further Explanation </h2>

Types of Radioactive Rays

Based on the constituent particles, radioactive rays are divided into three, namely alpha rays, beta rays, and gamma rays.

Alfa ray (α ray)

Alpha rays are rays emitted by radioactive elements. This ray was discovered simultaneously with the discovery of the phenomenon of radioactivity, which is the decay of the nucleus which takes place spontaneously, uncontrolled, and produces radiation. Alpha rays consist of two protons and two neutrons. The following are the nature of alpha rays.

Beta Rays (β Rays)

Beta rays are high-energy electrons that originate from the nucleus. Here are some of the nature of beta rays.

  • Has a smaller ionization power than alpha rays.
  • Has a greater penetrating power than alpha rays.
  • Can be deflected by electric or magnetic fields.

Gamma Rays (Rays ˠ)

Gamma rays are radiation from electromagnetic waves that emanate from very high energy nuclei that have no mass or charge. Gamma rays also emit when a core emits alpha rays and beta rays. Gamma-ray decay does not cause changes in atomic number or atomic mass.

Gamma rays have the following natural properties:

  • Gamma rays do not have maximum coverage in the air, the farther away from the source the intensity is smaller.
  • Has the weakest ionization power.
  • Has the greatest penetrating power.
  • Do not turn in the electric and magnetic fields.

type of radiation

alpha / ⁴₂ He                              4                                     2

beta / e⁰                                     0                                   - 1

gamma / γ                                  0                                     0

neutron / n                                 1                                      0

Explanation:

These are the basic types of <em>radiation</em>: <em>alpha </em>(α)<em>, beta </em>(β)<em>,  gamma </em>(γ), and neutrons (n).

The radiation is emitted by unstable nuclei when undergo radiactive decay or by nuclei that are shooted by other particles.

<u><em /></u>

<em><u>Alpha radiation</u></em><u> (⁴₂ He):</u>

They are nuclei of helium-4 atoms: 2 protons and 2 neutrons.

Hence, the atomic number, which is the number of protons,  of these particles, is 2; and the mass number, which is the sum of protons and neutrons, is 2 + 2 = 4.

The symbol of this radiation is ⁴₂ He, where the superscript to the left of the chemical symbol is the mass number and the subscript to the left of the chemical symbol is the atomic number.

<em><u>Beta</u></em><u> (⁰₋ ₁ e)</u>

These are electrons emiited from an unstable nucleus. The symbols used for this particle are either ⁰₋ ₁β or ⁰₋ ₁e.

The superscript 0 indicates that the relative mass of this particle is practically zero and the subscript -1 tells that the emission of electrons increases the atomic number of the nucleus that emits it.

<em><u>Gamma</u></em><u> (⁰₀γ)</u>

The gamma rays are electromagnetic radiation of high (the highest) energy.

The both superscript and subscript are zero, meaning that this radiation does not change either the mass or atomic numbers of the nucleus.

<em><u>Neutron</u></em><u> (¹₀n):</u>

Neutrons are also emiited from the nucleus and so they may be considered a radiation.

The atomic number of neutrons is 0 (since it does not have protons) and its mass number is 1.

NeTakaya

The halogens are five non-metallic elements found in group 17 of the periodic table. The term "halogen" means "salt-former" and compounds containing halogens are called "salts". All halogens have 7 electrons in their outer shells, giving them an oxidation number of -1.

12. Which compound can act as both a BrønstedLowry
oksian1 [2.3K]
1) The compound which can act as a <span>Bronsted-Lowry acid and a Bronsted-Lowry base is definitely water - H2O. Remember that water is </span><span>amphoteric which means it can </span>either accept protons or donate them, so it is the most proper option among other represented. Here are examples of both base and acid with water : <span>HCl+H20=H30+Cl ; </span><span>NH3+H2O=NH4+OH 

2) The </span><span>acids in this equilibrium reaction CN– + H2O HCN + OH. Acid species always donate </span> H+ to the species with which they react. In the second option you can see how H2O donates an H+ to CN-. If the reaction gets reversed we will obtain<span> HCN that donates an H+ to OH that shows that it is an acid.
</span><span>
3) </span>The products of self-ionization of water are OH⁻ and H₃O⁺. Self-ionization is an ionization reaction during which  H2O deprotonates its hydrogen atoms to become a hydroxide ion -- OH−. After this process OH-  protonates another water molecule forming H3O+<span>. 

4) The type of </span> solution which is one with a pH of 8 is acidic. Here is a little table that can be a prompt for you if you ever come across such tasks - ph : 7 is neutral<span>. </span>pH<span>  </span>lower than 7<span> are acidic, and </span>pH<span>  higher than </span>7<span> basic ones. 

5) </span><span>The acid dissociation constant for an acid dissolved in water is equal to the equilibrium constant. I consider this option correct because we can obtan </span><span>Kw only when dealing with Kb, and we can conclude that the hydrolysis constant of the conujugate base. 

6) </span>A 0.12 M solution of an acid that ionizes only slightly in solution would be termed dilute and weak. You can determine it depending on its concentration. Such value as 0.12M usually defined as a dilute solution of a weak acid due to the fact that acid represents its <span>partial ionization which is a direct characteristic of a weak acid.
 
7) To solve this task we should appeal to H</span>enry's law that says<span> the solubility of a gaz is proportional to its partial pressure. And according to this we can understand that </span>202kPa is the half of 404kPa which means that the needed solubility must be divided by <span>2 7.5/2=3.75 g/L and that's all.

8) I think that the most important points which best show </span><span>how the addition of a solute affects the boiling point, the freezing
point, and the vapor pressure of the solvent are : BOILING: a</span>dditional attractive forces can only exist between solute and solvent and in order to boil they must be overcome for the solution;we should add KE to overcome the forces. FREEZING : to freeze we have to withdrawn KE as the solute particles are surrounded by solvent molecules. VAPOR : WHen <span>solvent shells are being formed  the solute particles reduces the number of solvent particles that have sufficient KE to vaporize.</span>
<span>
9) </span>[H+][OH-]= Kw = 1.0 * 10^-14
[H+]= Kw/ [OH-]= 1.0x 10^-14 / 1 x 10^-11 =1 x 10^-3 mol/L &#10;&#10;pH = - log [H+]= - log 1 x 10^-3 = 3
Since we got Ph of 3 in a result we can define solution as an acidic one, as I mentioned before.

10) Since the formula of the given acid is HA it undergoes like that :<span> HA<=> H+ + A- .
</span><span>ka = [H][A] / [HA].
Now we have only </span>[H+] and to go further you need to write  <span>electroneutrality equation for the reaction :
</span>[H+] = [OH-] + [A-]  (since [H]>>>[OH]), then 
<span>[H+] = [A-] 
</span>Then mass balance equation : 
Ct = 0.5M = [A-] + [HA] 
<span>[HA] = 0.5 - [A-] = 0.5 - [H+] 
</span>Finally here is what we have done and get : 
ka = [H]^2 / (0.5 - [H+]) &#10;
ka = 0.0001*0.0001/(0.5-0.0001) = 2.00x10^-8

11) The main points that are common for acids : they form Hydrogen ions when dissloved in water, - Ex. Vinegar and Lemon, Ph >7, they have <span>Increased hydrogen ions (H+). The facts about bases : they r</span>educe the concentration of hydgoren ions in a solution which is opposite to asids,<span>- Ex. Antiacid,and Ammonia ,</span>Ph valuse above 7, they form hydrogen (OH-).
- The common points of both acids and bases : <span>Hydrogen ions ,</span>
 both not neutral and water based.

noname [10]

Answer:

2.2 moles H2O

Explanation:

35g O_2 \mbox{ \cdot }\frac{1mol}{32g/mol} \mbox{ \cdot }\frac{2mol H_2O}{1mol O_2}= 2.1875, which rounds to about 2.2

En una estructura de concreto cuyo peso es de 8500 n se apoyo sobre un area de 25cm2,hallar la presion ejercida sobre su base
babymother [125]

Respuesta:

340 N/cm²

Explicación:

Paso 1: Información provista

Peso de la estructura (F): 8500 Newton

Area superficial (A): 25 cm²

Paso 2: Calcular la presión (P) ejercida por la estructura de concreto sobre su base

La presión es igual al cociente entre la fuerza ejercida y la superficie sobre la que se aplica.

P = F/A

P = 8500 N / 25 cm² = 340 N/cm²
