Answer:Strontium-90 and cesium-137 have half-lives of about 30 years (half the radioactivity will decay in 30 years). Plutonium-239 has a half-life of 24,000 years. High-level wastes are hazardous because they produce fatal radiation doses during short periods of direct exposure.
Explanation:
To go from molecules to moles divide by Avogadro's number [<span>6.02x10^23]</span>
Example:
1.50x10^23 divided by 6.02x10^23 = 0.249 moles rounded to three significant figures
Answer:
The kinetic theory of matter explains that all matter is made of particles which are constantly moving/have energy. The energy varies depending on the temperature of the matter, therefore determining if the matter is solid, liquid, or gas. When the energy of a particle is increased or decreased, a phase change can occur.
Answer:

Explanation:
A series of chemical reactions transform Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) into substances that combine with nitrogen dioxide to produce PAN (Peroxyacytyl nitrate), yet another element in smog. Nitrogen dioxide in the air also reacts with water vapor to form nitric acid, one of the types of acid in acid rain.
