Answer:

Inhaling large concentrations of uranium can cause lung cancer from the exposure to alpha particles. Uranium is also a toxic chemical, meaning that ingestion of uranium can cause kidney damage from its chemical properties much sooner than its radioactive properties would cause cancers of the bone or liver.

Very

Explanation:

Uranium's main target is the kidneys. Kidney damage has been seen in humans and animals after inhaling or ingesting uranium compounds. ... Inhaled insoluble uranium compounds can also damage the respiratory tract.

Pls it’s urgent

Rainbow [258]

Answer:

0.02 moles.

Explanation:

volume of H₂ gas at R.T.P = 480 cm³

Where

R.T.P = room temperature and pressure

molar volume of gas at = 24000 cm³

no. of moles of hydrogen = ?

Solution:

formula Used

no. of moles = volume of gas / molar volume

put values in above equation

no. of moles = 480 cm³ / 24000 cm³/mol

no. of moles = 0.02 mol

So,

no. of moles of hydrogen in 480 cm³ is 0.02 moles.

A mixture of 5L of H2 and 3L O2 reacts to form H2O (g) at constant T and P .Find the

slamgirl [31]

The volume of H₂O = 5 L

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

5L of H₂ and 3L O₂

Reaction

2H₂ (g) + O₂(g) ⇒2H₂O(g)

Required

The volume of H₂O

Solution

Avogadro's hypothesis:

<em>In the same T,P and V, the gas contains the same number of molecules </em>

So the ratio of gas volume will be equal to the ratio of gas moles

mol H₂ = 5, mol O₂ = 3

Find limiting reactants

From equation, mol ratio H₂ : O₂ = 2 : 1, so :

$\tt H_2\div O_2=\dfrac{mol~H_2}{coefficient}\div \dfrac{mol~O_2}{coefficient}\\\\=\dfrac{5}{2}\div \dfrac{3}{1}=2.5\div 3\rightarrow H_2~limiting~reactant(smaller~ratio)$

Find volume H₂O

mol H₂O based on mol H₂, and from equation mol ratio H₂ : H₂O=2 : 2, so mol H₂O = 5 mol and the volume also 5 L
