<h3>What is
thyroid cancer?</h3>
Cancer that originates in the tissues of the thyroid gland is known as thyroid cancer. It is a condition where cells develop improperly and are susceptible to spreading to different bodily regions. A bump in the neck or swelling are examples of symptoms. Thyroid cancer is not always diagnosed because it can move from other parts of the body to the thyroid.
Young age radiation exposure, having an enlarged thyroid, and family history are risk factors. Papillary thyroid cancer, follicular thyroid cancer, medullary thyroid cancer, and anaplastic thyroid cancer are the four primary kinds. Ultrasound and tiny needle aspiration are frequently used in diagnosis. As of right now, it is not advised to screen those who are healthy and at normal risk for the disease.

16.4 grams is the mass of solute in a 500 mL solution of 0.200 M
.
sodium phosphate
Explanation:
Given data about sodium phosphate
atomic mass of Na3PO4 = 164 grams/mole
volume of the solution = 500 ml or 0.5 litres
molarity of sodium phosphate solution = 0.200 M
The formula for molarity will be used here to know the mass dissolved in the given volume of the solution:
The formula is
molarity = 
putting the values in the equation, we get
molarity x volume = number of moles
0.200 X 0.5= number of moles
number of moles = 0.1 moles
Atomic mass x number of moles = mass
putting the values in the above equation
164 x 0.1 = 16.4 grams
16.4 grams of sodium phosphate is present in 0.5 L of the solution to make a 0.2 M solution.

Low pH means the solution is acidic; if the solution is acidic, that
means that there are hydronium ions in solution (H3O+). For example,
hydrochloric acid dissolves into H+ ions and Cl- ions, and the H+ ions
rreact with water like this:
H+ + H2O --> H3O+
If you want to get mathematical, pH is defined as the negative log of the concentration of hydronium ions.
Thus, if there are a lot of hydronium ions, the solution will have a low, or acidic, pH. Hope this helps^-^</span>
