Answer:

Alpha > beta>gamma

Explanation:

Comparing only the three common types of ionizing radiation, alpha particles have the greatest mass. Alpha particles have approximately four times the mass of a proton or neutron and approximately 8,000 times the mass of a beta particle.

Gamma radiation, unlike alpha or beta, does not consist of any particles, instead consisting of a photon of energy being emitted from an unstable nucleus. Having no mass or charge, gamma radiation can travel much farther through air than alpha or beta, losing (on average) half its energy for every 500 feet.

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf Gamma, beta, alpha}}$

Explanation:

Alpha. beta, and gamma particles are all emitted from an unstable or radioactive nucleus during radioactive decay.

Alpha particles are essentially helium ions, made of 2 protons and 2 neutrons. It has an atomic mass of 4 atomic mass units.

Beta particles are also known as electrons. They have masses of 1/1840 atomic mass units.

Gamma particles are actually just rays or photons of electronegative energy emitted. They have no mass or a mass of 0 atomic mass units.

So, if we place the mass in increasing order (least to greatest), then it is gamma (0 amu), beta (1/1840 amu) and alpha (4 amu).

B. The unknown solution had the lower concentration.

Explanation:

Osmosis is a phenomenon in which the molecules of the solvent has a tendency to move through a membrane which is semipermeable from lower concentrated side to the higher concentration side, so that the concentrations on both sides of the membrane must be equal.

So the unknown solution may have lesser concentration than the isotonic solution so that molecules of that solution move from less concentrated side to the more concentrated side, so its level drops.

zalisa [80]

Answer: The chemical equation is written below.

Explanation:

Every balanced chemical equation follows law of conservation of mass.

This law states that mass can neither be created nor be destroyed but it can only be transformed from one form to another form. This also means that total number of individual atoms on reactant side must be equal to the total number of individual atoms on the product side.

The chemical equation for the reaction of elemental boron and oxygen gas follows:

$4B+3O_2\rightarrow 2B_2O_3$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

4 moles of elemental boron reacts with 3 moles of oxygen gas to produce 2 moles of diboron trioxide.

The chemical equation for the reaction of diboron trioxide and water follows:

$B_2O_3+3H_2O\rightarrow 2H_3BO_3$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of diboron trixoide reacts with 3 moles of water to produce 2 moles of boric acid.

Hence, the chemical equations are written above.
