Read the passage below about different types of radiation. Different types of radiation have different penetrating abilities. Fo

r example, gamma rays can pass through cloth and paper, but alpha particles are blocked by cloth and paper. Beta particles are blocked by aluminum foil, but gamma rays are not. However, all three types of radiation are blocked by thick concrete or lead. Now, examine a table of penetrating powers of different types of radiation. Material 1 2 3 Lead Stopped Stopped Stopped Cloth Not stopped Stopped Stopped Aluminum foil Not stopped Stopped Stopped Wood Not stopped Stopped Stopped Paper Not stopped Stopped Not stopped Thick concrete Stopped Stopped Stopped Based on the information, at which numbered spot in the table does each type of radiation belong?

<h2>Answer : 1 is gamma, 2 is alpha and 3 is beta radiations.</h2><h3>Explanation :</h3>

In the given information all the radiations were stopped by the lead block, if we assume that first radiations were gamma radiation, as they were not stopped by the cloth whereas all other radiations were stopped.

In second case, aluminum foil and wood were able to block alpha and beta radiations. Whereas, paper was used to stop the alpha particles but not the gamma and beta rays. And then a thick concrete stopped all the radiations.

This clarifies that the first radiation are gamma rays, second is alpha rays and third is beta rays.

A lightbulb filled with argon gas has a volume of 75 mL at STP. How many moles of argon gas does the lightbulb contain?
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

0.00335 moles

Explanation:

From the question, Using

PV = nRT................... Equation 1

Where P = pressure, V = Volume, n = number of moles of argon gas, R = Molar  gas constant, T = Temperature.

make n the subject of the equation

n = PV/RT............... Equation 2

Given: P = 1 atm (standard pressure), T = 273 K (standard temperature), V = 75 mL = 0.075 dm³

Constant: R = 0.082 atm·dm³/K·mol

Substitute into equation 2

n = (1×0.075)/(273×0.082)

n = 0.075/22.386

n = 0.00335 moles

Define motion of particles in matter
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The states that all of the particles that make up matter are constantly in motion. As a result, all particles in matter have kinetic energy. The kinetic theory of matter helps explain the different states of matter—solid, liquid, and gas. ... Particles do not always move at the same speed.

Consider a reaction that has a positive ΔH and a positive ΔS. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A) This reaction will be
Alja [10]

Answer: A) This reaction will be spontaneous only at high temperatures

Explanation:

\Delta G= +ve, reaction is non spontaneous

\Delta G= -ve, reaction is spontaneous

\Delta G= 0, reaction is in equilibrium

Using Gibbs Helmholtz equation:

\Delta G=\Delta H-T\Delta S

Given : \Delta H=+ve

\Delta S=+ve

\Delta G=(+ve)-T(+ve)

\Delta G=(+ve)(-ve)

Thus the value of  \Delta G  is negative and spontaneous when temperature is high.

How many moles of liquid water must freeze to remove 100 kJ of heat? (ΔHf = –334 J/<br> g.
Juliette [100K]
First figure out how many grams must freeze and then convert the grams to moles. 
<span>Hf = -334 J/g. Convert this to KJ/g by dividing by 1000. (There are 1000 Joules in a kJ). </span>
<span>Hf = -334 J/g ÷ 1000 J/kj = -0.334 kJ/g </span>
<span>Now, divide 100 kJ by -0.334 kJ/g (see how the units are lining up?) </span>
<span>100 kJ ÷ -0.334 kJ/g = 299 g </span>
<span>Now convert this to moles by dividing by the molecular weight of water (18.0g/mole). </span>
<span>299 ÷ 18.0 = 16.6 moles </span>
