Answer : Option a) True.

Explanation : A placebo is a substance that is unlikely to affect the dependent variable. True as in a clinical trial for any change in the placebo arm is known as the placebo response, and the difference between this placebo response and the result of no treatment is called as the placebo effect. Therefore, a placebo may be given to any person in a clinical context in order to deceive that recipient into thinking that it is an part of active treatment. It actually resembles a drug but is not an actual active drug, so, it is clear that it will not affect dependent variable.

What types of radiation cause the parent isotope to change into a different element?

kvv77 [185]

Answer:

Beta decay is most common in elements with a high neutron to proton ratio. Gamma decay follows the form: In gamma emission, neither the atomic number or the mass number is changed. A high energy gamma ray is given off when the parent isotope falls into a lower energy state.

The balanced equation for a hypothetical reaction is a + 5b + 6c → 3d + 3e. what is the rate law for this reaction? rate = k [a]

nekit [7.7K]

<u>Answer: </u>The correct rate of the reaction is $Rate=k[a][b]^5[c]^6$

<u>Explanation:</u>

Rate law of the reaction is the expression which expresses the rate of the reaction in the terms of the molar concentrations of the reactants with each term raised to the power of their respective stoichiometric coefficients in a balanced chemical equation.

For the given reaction:

$a+5b+6c\rightarrow 3d+3e$

The expression for the rate law will be: $Rate=k[a][b]^5[c]^6$

The half-life of radon gas is approximately four days. Four weeks after the introduction of radon into a sealed room, the fracti

maksim [4K]

The fraction of the original amount remaining is closest to 1/128

<h3>Determination of the number of half-lives</h3>

Half-life (t½) = 4 days
Time (t) = 4 weeks = 4 × 7 = 28 days
Number of half-lives (n) =?

n = t / t½

n = 28 / 4

n = 7

<h3>How to determine the amount remaining </h3>

Original amount (N₀) = 100 g
Number of half-lives (n) = 7
Amount remaining (N)=?

N = N₀ / 2ⁿ

N = 100 / 2⁷

N = 0.78125 g

<h3>How to determine the fraction remaining </h3>

Original amount (N₀) = 100 g
Amount remaining (N)= 0.78125 g

Fraction remaining =?

Fraction remaining = N / N₀

Fraction remaining = 0.78125 / 100

Fraction remaining = 1/128
