Answer:
- <u>The container must be built of lead, and it should be kept in a concrete vault.</u>
Explanation:
The goal is to contain the <em>gamma rays</em> to<em> reduce</em> the <em>exposure </em>to their harmful <em>radiation</em>.
The gamma rays are the most energetic electromagnetic radiation: they have the smallest wavelength, the largest frequency, and the largest energy from all the electromagnetic radiations.
Due to that, only very dense substances like lead and concrete can stop the gamma rays. In the case of concrete, large blocks with thick walls are required.
Thus, in a lab the best container for a sample of uranium - 238 that is decaying, emitting gamma rays, must be built of lead, and enclosed in a conrete vault.
A titration is a technique where a solution of known concentration is used to determine the concentration of an unknown solution. Typically, the titrant (the know solution) is added from a buret to a known quantity of the analyte (the unknown solution) until the reaction is complete
