Answer:

Beta particles and neutrons

Explanation:

Lead is not particular good for shielding beta particles and neutrons. Lead shielding is used for shielding x-rays and gamma-rays due to its high density and atomic mass.

Materials made with lead are used by people dealing with all kinds of radioactive particles to prevent radioactive poisonings.

But lead cannot effectively protect against beta particles and neutrons.

Maple syrup would be categorized under solutions. As it contains sugar which is very soluble in water, it dissolves completely in water depending on its solubility at that temperature making it impossible for the components to be filtered out. A solution is a homogeneous mixture.

Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

An addition reaction

Step-by-step explanation:

In an addition reaction, two or more molecules come together to form a single product, for example,

C₂H₂ + 2Cl₂ ⟶ C₂H₂Cl₄

This reaction consists of two successive additions. The product of the first reaction becomes a reactant and adds a second molecule of Cl₂ to form C₂H₂Cl₄

    C₂H₂ + Cl₂ ⟶ <em>C₂H₂Cl₂ </em>

<em><u>C₂H₂Cl₂</u></em><u> + Cl₂ ⟶ C₂H₂Cl₄ </u>

 C₂H₂ + 2Cl₂ ⟶ C₂H₂Cl₄

1. Sodium hydroxide reacts with carbon dioxide according to the equation: 2NaOH(s) + CO2(g) →
Leno4ka [110]

The limiting reagent when 5 g of NaOH and 4.4 g CO₂  allowed to react will be NaOH

<h3>What is Limiting reagent ?</h3>

The limiting reactant (or limiting reagent) is the reactant that gets consumed first in a chemical reaction and therefore limits how much product can be formed.

Given chemical equation in balanced form ;

2NaOH(s) + CO₂(g) → Na₂CO₃(s) + H₂O(l).

According to the Chemical equation ;

  • The limiting reagent when 5 g of NaOH and 4.4 g CO₂  allowed to react will be NaOH

    If 44 g CO₂ requires 80 g of NaOH, therefore, 4.4 g CO₂ will require atleast 8 g of NaOH.

    But the available quantity is 5 g NaOH. thus, NaOH is the Limiting reagent.

  • 6.625 g of Na₂CO₃ are expected to be produced 5.0 g of NaOH and 4.4 g of CO₂ are allowed to react

    As 80 g NaOH produces 106 g of Na₂CO₃.

    Therefore 5 g NaoH will produce ;

    106 / 80 x 5 = 6.625 g

Answer:

In science, sound is defined as the transfer of energy from a vibrating object in waves that travel through matter. Most people commonly use the term sound to mean what they hear when sound waves enter their ears. The tree above generated sound waves when it fell to the ground, so it made sound according to the scientific definition

Explanation:

sound waves
