Which statement accurately describes a potential danger of radiation?

Chemistry
1 answer:
dsp733 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Even small amounts of radiation over a prolonged period of time can be dangerous.

Explanation:

We all get exposed to radiation, such as through x-rays, and it's fine as one off experiences. However, if you're constantly dealing with radiation without any sort of protection, no matter how small the amount is, it could potentially lead to consequences like cancer. This is due to the fact that radiation can alter our genes

Consider a 1260-kg automobile clocked by law-enforcement radar at a speed of 85.5 km/h. If the position of the car is known to w
-BARSIC- [3]
The expected speed is v = 85.5 km/h
 v = 85.5 km/h = (85.5 km/h)*(0.2778 (m/s)/(km/h)) = 23.75 m/s

If there is an uncertainty of 2 meters in measuring the position, then within a 1-second time interval:
The lower measurement for the speed is v₁ = 21.75 m/s,
The upper measurement for the speed is v₂ = 25.75 m/s.
The range of variation is
Δv = v₂ - v₁ = 4 m/s

The uncertainty in measuring the speed is
Δv/v = 4/23.75 = 0.1684 = 16.84%

</span><span>Li⁺ (aq) + OH⁻ (aq) + H⁺ (aq) + Cl⁻(aq) → Li⁺ (aq) + Cl⁻ (aq) + H₂O(l)</span><span />

<span>Explanation:
</span>

<span>1) Combine the cation Li⁺ (aq) with the anion Cl- (aq) to form LiCl(s).
</span>
<span>LiCl is a solid soluble substance, a typical ionic compound. So, it will reamain as separate ions in the product side: Li⁺ + CL⁻</span>

<span>2) Combine the anion OH⁻ with the cation H⁺ to form H₂O(l).
</span>
<span>Since, the ionization of H₂O is low, it will remain as liquid in the product side: H₂O(l)</span>

<span>3) Finally, you can wirte the total ionic equation:
</span>
Li⁺ (aq) + OH⁻ (aq) + H⁺ (aq) + Cl⁻(aq) → Li⁺ (aq) + Cl⁻ (aq) + H₂O(l)

El fluoruro de hidrógeno HF que se utiliza en
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

25.6g de HF son producidos

Explanation:

<em>...¿Cuánto HF es producido?</em>

Para resolver este problema debemos convertir la masa de cada reactivo a moles usando su masa molar. Como la reacción es 1:1, el reactivo con menor número de moles es el reactivo limitante. Con las moles del reactivo limitante podemos obtener las moles de HF y su masa así:

<em>Moles CaF2:</em>

Masa molar:

1Ca = 40g/mol

2F = 19*2 = 38g/mol

40+38 = 78g/mol

50g CaF2 * (1mol/78g) = 0.641 moles CaF2

<em>Moles H2SO4:</em>

Masa molar:

2H = 2g/mol

1S = 32g/mol

4O = 64g/mol

98g/mol

100g H2SO4 * (1mol / 98g) = 1.02 moles H2SO4

Como las moles de CaF2 < Moles H2SO4: CaF2 es reactivo limitante.

<em>Moles HF usando la reacción:</em>

0.641 moles CaF2 * (2mol HF / 1mol CaF2) = 1.282 moles HF

<em>Masa HF:</em>

Masa molar:

1g/mol + 19g/mol = 20g/mol

1.282 moles HF * (20g/mol) =

atroni [7]
The statement that describes a chain reaction brought about by a nuclear reaction is "neutrons <span>released during a fission reaction cause other nuclei to split." This is applicable to fission reactions only wherein atoms split and produce neutrons that also cause further atoms to split, thus creating a chain or series of reactions.</span>
