1. Which list of nuclear emissions is arranged in order from the least penetrating power to
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

A) alpha particle, beta particle, gamma ray

Explanation:

Alpha beta and gamma radiations are the examples of ionizing radiations. When an atom is an excited state and having high energy, the atom is in unstable state. The excess of energy is released by the atom to get the stability. The released energy is in the form of radiations which may include alpha, beta, gamma, X-ray etc.

Properties of alpha radiation:  

Alpha radiations can travel in a short distance.

These radiations can not penetrate into the skin or clothes.

These radiations can be harmful for the human if these are inhaled.

These radiations can be stopped by a piece of paper.

₉₂U²³⁸   →   ₉₀Th²³⁴  + ₂He⁴  + energy

Beta radiations:  

The mass of beta particle is smaller than the alpha particles.

They can travel in air in few meter distance.

These radiations can penetrate into the human skin.

The sheet of aluminum is used to block the beta radiation

⁴₆C → ¹⁴₇N + ⁰₋₁e

The beta radiations are emitted in this reaction. The one electron is ejected and neutron is converted into proton.  

Gamma radiations:

Gamma radiations are high energy radiations having no mass.

These radiations are travel at the speed of light.

Gamma radiations can penetrate into the many materials.

These radiations are also used to treat the cancer.

Lead is used for the protection  against gamma radiations because of its high molecular density.

The lead apron are used by the person when treated with gamma radiations.

Lead shields are also used in the wall, windows and doors of the room where gamma radiations are treated, in-order to protect the surroundings.

Sonja [21]

Answer : The initial concentration of HI and concentration of HI at equilibrium is, 0.27 M and 0.386 M  respectively.

Solution :  Given,

Initial concentration of H_2 and I_2 = 0.11 M

Concentration of H_2 and I_2 at equilibrium = 0.052 M

Let the initial concentration of HI be, C

The given equilibrium reaction is,

    H_2(g)+I_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2HI(g)

Initially               0.11   0.11            C

At equilibrium  (0.11-x) (0.11-x)   (C+2x)

As we are given that:

Concentration of H_2 and I_2 at equilibrium = 0.052 M  = (0.11-x)

The expression of K_c will be,

K_c=\frac{[HI]^2}{[H_2][I_2]}

54.3=\frac{(C+2(0.058))^2}{(0.052)\times (0.052)}

By solving the terms, we get:

C = 0.27 M

Thus, initial concentration of HI = C = 0.27 M

Thus, the concentration of HI at equilibrium = (C+2x) = 0.27 + 2(0.058) = 0.386 M

Can anyone give me the name of these? 40 points. Hope it's not too much
kolbaska11 [484]
1. 5 ethyl, 2 methyl octane
2. 1 ethyl, 2 methyl cyclopentane
3. 3,3,5,5- tetrafluoro heptane
4. 3,4-dimethyl hexene
5. 3,4-dimethyl cyclobutene
6. 3,5 diisopropyl cyclohexene
7. 3,3,4 trimethyl pentyne
8. 2,6 dibromo phenol

keep in mind that between 4-7, there could be #1 in front of the main name. for example with #4: 3,4-dimethyl-1- hexene. this honestly depends on the professor how he/she likes it. It is not necessary because if the number is not specified, it is assumed is #1
