Chemistry
1 answer:
Mnenie [13.5K]3 years ago
5 0

Some of the properties are:

1. Gamma, γ-rays are not deflected by electric and magnetic fields. It shows that they do not have any charge.

2. Gamma, γ-rays are electromagnetic waves like X-rays. The wavelength of γ-ray photon is smaller than that of X-rays.

3. The rest mass of a Gamma, γ-ray photon is zero. (Photon has mass zero but it has momentum, why?)

4. Gamma, γ-rays travel with the speed of light.

5. Gamma, γ-rays have very large penetrating power. They can pass through several centimeter of iron and lead.

6. Gamma, γ-rays can produce fluorescene in a substance like willimite.

Explain why crystallisation can't be used to prepare calcium carbonate.​
liq [111]

Explanation:

The mechanisms by which amorphous intermediates transform into crystalline materials are poorly understood. Currently, attracting enormous interest is the crystallization of amorphous calcium carbonate, a key intermediary in synthetic, biological, and environmental systems. Here we attempt to unify many contrasting and contradictory studies by investigating this process in detail. We show that amorphous calcium carbonate can dehydrate before crystallizing, both in solution and in air, while thermal analyses and solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance measurements reveal that its water is present in distinct environments. Loss of the final water fraction—comprising less than 15% of the total—then triggers crystallization. The high activation energy of this step suggests that it occurs by partial dissolution/recrystallization, mediated by surface water, and the majority of the particle then crystallizes by a solid-state transformation. Such mechanisms are likely to be widespread in solid-state reactions and their characterization will facilitate greater control over these processes.

7. A sample of a compound that contains only chlorine and oxygen reacts with excess hydrogen to produce 0.233 grams of hydrochlo
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

ClxOy + H2 > HCl + H2O

HCl = 0.233/37 = 0.006 mol H2O = 0.403/180.02 mol

HCl = 0.006/0.022 H2O = 0.022/0.006

= 1 = 4

Cl2O4 + 5H2 > 2HCl + 4H2O

I'm think that's the answer
