You are working in a lab when radiation alarms go off. You are able to hide inside a steel cabinet, whose sides are about 1.5 in

ches thick, until the alarm goes off. Preliminary reports show that the radiation was weakly ionizing and negatively charged. Were you safe in the cabinet?
A. Yes, it was beta radiation and the steel was enough to block it.
B. Yes, it was alpha radiation and not harmful.
C. No, it was beta radiation and very dangerous.
D. No, it was gamma radiation and can only be blocked by a thick wall of lead.

Why doesn’t neon readily form an ionic bond?
Goryan [66]

By definition of noble gases, neon does not easily form an ionic bond because it belongs to the group of noble or inert gases, so its reactivity is practically nil.

<h3>Noble gases</h3>

Noble gases are not very reactive, that is, they practically do not form chemical compounds. This means that they do not react with other substances, nor do they even react between atoms of the same gas, as is the case with diatomic gases such as oxygen (O₂).

The chemical stability of the noble gases and therefore the absence of spontaneous evolution towards any other chemical form, implies that they are already in a state of maximum stability.

All chemical transformations involve valence electrons, they are involved in the process of covalent bond formation and the formation of ions. Therefore, the practically null reactivity of the noble gases is due to the fact that they have a complete valence shell, which gives them a low tendency to capture or release electrons.

Since the noble gases do not react with the other elements, they are also called inert gases.

<h3>Neon</h3>

Neon does not easily form an ionic bond because it belongs to the group of noble or inert gases, so its reactivity is practically nil.

Which is associated with a fission reaction? *
podryga [215]

Answer: Radioactive waste

Explanation:

The nuclear fission reaction consists of heavy atomic particles or heavy nucleus, like plutonium and uranium and in radioactive heavy metals. In the fission reaction the nucleus get split into equal masses of particles. This process is associated with release of large amount of energy. The fission of radioactive waste can cause deadly mutations in living beings.

Please help me out i will give you brainlist. 0.500 is wrong
Alik [6]
<h3>Answer:  b) 0.250 mol</h3>

============================================

Work Shown:

Using the periodic table, we see that

  • 1 mole of carbon = 12 grams
  • 1 mole of oxygen = 16 grams

These are approximations and these values are often found underneath the atomic symbol. For example, the atomic weight listed under carbon is roughly 12.011 grams. I'm rounding to 2 sig figs in those numbers listed above.

So 1 mole of CO2 is approximately 12+2*16 = 44 grams. The 2 is there since we have 2 oxygens attached to the carbon atom.

-------------------

Since 1 mole of CO2 is 44 grams, we can use that to convert from grams to moles.

11.0 grams of CO2 = (11.0 grams)*(1 mol/44 g) = (11.0/44) mol = 0.250 mol of CO2

In short,

11.0 grams of CO2 = 0.250 mol of CO2

This is approximate.

We don't need to use any of the information in the table.

How does changing the volume of water effect solubility?
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

this is because solubility of a salt depends on the amount of salt dissolved per unit volume, hence more amount of solute can be dissolved

Calculate the moles of Cu in 7.4×1021 atoms of Cu.
IceJOKER [234]
1 moles -------- 6.02x10²³ atoms
 ?? moles ----- 7.4x10²¹ atoms

moles = 7.4x10²¹ / 6.02x10²³

 = 0.01229 moles

hope this helps!
