No, since they are the strongest type of ray only elements that are dense can block them.
Answer:
cfcl3
Explanation:
When the cfcl3 in the atmosphere is hit by UV rays from the sun, it decomposes to Cl atoms. These Cl atoms then react with the ozone producing O2 and ClO. The ClO bombard with O atoms splitting the ClO up and the free Cl atom again bonds to another O3 molecule hence reducing it. One ClO can reduce several O3 molecules (up to 100,000) creating an ozone hole.
2Cl + O3 → 2ClO + 2O2
2ClO + 2O → 2Cl + 2O2
A. The atom has 3 protons, 3 electrons, and 4 neutrons.
Answer:
X is sodium hydroxide (caustic soda, NaOH)
y is sodium (Na)
Explanation:
The process of industrial electrolysis of sodium chloride solution by which chlorine and sodium hydroxide (caustic soda) can be produced is known as the chlor-alkali process as follows;
2NaCl + 2H₂O → Cl₂ + H₂ + 2NaOH
Given that the compound X is formed from a element y which is in the form of a pellet, we have;
The element in the above reaction that can exist as pellet is the silver white metallic sodium pellet
Therefore, the compound X is NaOH and the element y is sodium, Na.
