Answer:

Explanation:

The primary hazard when working with technetium is inhalation of dust; such radioactive contamination in the lungs can pose a significant cancer risk. All technetium compounds should be regarded as highly toxic, largely because of its radiological toxicity. Once in the human body, Tc-99 concentrates in the thyroid gland and the gastrointestinal tract. The body, however, constantly excretes Tc-99 once it is ingested.

g what are the bands of electromagneitc radiation and how are they related to energy frequency and wavelength

ch4aika [34]

Answer:

The details of bands is given in explanation.

Explanation:

The electromagnetic waves are differentiated into different bands based upon their wavelengths and frequencies. The names of different bands are as follows:

1. Radio Waves

2. Micro Waves

3. Infra-red

4. Visible light

5. Ultra Violet

6. X-rays

7. Gamma Rays

The frequency of every region or rays increases from 1 through 7. The energy of rays also increase from 1 through 7. Since, the wave length is inversely related to energy and frequency, thus the wavelength of rays decrease from 1 through 7.

A detailed information of the bands is provided in the picture attached.
