Answer:
Radiation is energy. It can come from unstable atoms that undergo radioactive decay, or it can be produced by machines. Radiation travels from its source in the form of energy waves or energized particles. There are different forms of radiation and they have different properties and effects.

Non-Ionizing and Ionizing Radiation
There are two kinds of radiation: non-ionizing radiation and ionizing radiation.
Non-ionizing radiation has enough energy to move atoms in a molecule around or cause them to vibrate, but not enough to remove electrons from atoms. Examples of this kind of radiation are radio waves, visible light and microwaves.
Ionizing radiation has so much energy it can knock electrons out of atoms, a process known as ionization. Ionizing radiation can affect the atoms in living things, so it poses a health risk by damaging tissue and DNA in genes. Ionizing radiation comes from x-ray machines, cosmic particles from outer space and radioactive elements. Radioactive elements emit ionizing radiation as their atoms undergo radioactive decay.

Ionizing radiation can affect the atoms in living things, so it poses a health risk by damaging tissue and DNA in genes.. The ionizing radiation that is emitted can include alpha particles, beta particles and/or gamma raysHelpgamma raysA form of ionizing radiation that is made up of weightless packets of energy called photons. Gamma rays can pass completely through the human body; as they pass through, they can cause damage to tissue and DNA.. Radioactive decay occurs in unstable atoms called radionuclides.
Explanation:
Water is the answer out of all the other options
Explanation:
As per the Hess’s law of constant heat summation, the heat absorbed or evolved in a given chemical equation is the same whether the process occurs in one step or several steps.
Hence, according to this law the chemical equation can be treated as ordinary algebraic expression and can be added or subtracted to yield the required equation. This means that the enthalpy change of the overall reaction is the sum of the enthalpy changes of the intermediate reactions.
..........(1)
..............(2)
The final reaction is as follows:
.............(3)
Therefore, adding (1) and (2) we get the final equation (3) and value of
at 298 K will be as follows.
=
+
= -314 kJ + (-80) kJ
= -394 kJ
Thus, we can conclude that
at 298 K for the given process is -394 kJ.
Answer:
the cells in your body
Explanation:
Most people that i have asked this similar question to, have said the sun. It's not the sun because the sun disappears at night. Your body produces heat because your cells are burning up energy.
