Different radioactive nuclides decay into their respective daughter nuclides at distinct rates. Some of the nuclides decay briskly, while others decay gradually. The time it consumes for half of the parent nuclide in a radioactive sample to decay to the daughter nuclides is known as the half-life of the radioactive sample.
The nuclides, which decay briskly exhibit short half-lives and are very active. The half-life can be utilized to find the rates of radioactive decay. In the given question, the half-lives of various nuclides are given. So, the order to the most active (shortest half-life or largest number of decays per second) to least reactive (largest half-life or the smallest number of decays per second) is:
Tc-99m > Y-90 > In-111 > I-131
Answer:
Increased atmospheric carbon dioxide will cause increased ocean surface temperatures.
Explanation:
Greenhouse gases of which CO2 is a typical example are known to cause a gradual and steady increase in the surface temperature of the earth by trapping infrared rays close to the surface of the earth.
As the surface temperature of the earth rises, the surface temperature of the oceans rises also leading to the tendency towards hurricanes.
Hurricanes are violent storms which are known to form near the equator over warm ocean waters.
Hence, increased atmospheric carbon dioxide will cause increased ocean surface temperature which in turn increases the chances of the occurrence of hurricanes.
The molecules are continually colliding with each other and with the walls of the container. When a molecule collides with the wall, they exert small force on the wall The pressure exerted by the gas is due to the sum of all these collision forces. The more particles that hit the walls, the higher the pressure.
For classification, the protists are divided into three groups: Animal-like protists, which are heterotrophs and have the ability to move. Plant-like protists, which are autotrophs that photosynthesize. Fungi-like protists, which are heterotrophs, and they have cells with cell walls and reproduce by forming spores.
The type of bonding present in water (H2O) is hydrogen bonding.
