Ionising radiation is emitted all the time by __________ sources. What one word completes the sentence?

Chemistry
1 answer:
sveticcg [70]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:Radioactive substances give out radiation all of the time. There are three types of nuclear radiation: alpha, beta and gamma. Alpha is the least penetrating, while gamma is the most penetrating. Nonetheless, all three are ionising radiation: they can knock electrons out of atoms and form charged particles.

c. A full s subshell is able to shield a newly filled p subshell from the nucleus, making the first electron in a p subshell easy to remove.

Explanation:

From the given options, a full s-sublevel is able to shield a newly filled p-subshell from the nucleus thereby making the first electron in a p-subshell easy to remove is correct.

What is ionization energy?

Ionization energy is a measure of the readiness of an atom to lose an electron.

First ionization energy is the energy required to remove the most loosely held electron in the gas phase.

The size of an atom/element depends on the number of electrons it contains. The more the electrons, the larger its size.

  • The larger an atom becomes the lesser the ionization energy needed to remove the first electron from its outermost shell.

Electron - electron repulsion occurs when two electrons in the same sub-level repels one another.

Shielding effect is the ability of the inner electrons to protect the outer electrons from the pull of the nuclear charge.

In option C, a s-subshell has a greater shielding effect than the p,d and f sub-shell in that order.

A newly introduced electron in the p-sublevel will be loosely held and easier to remove.

When 4.41g of phosphoric acid (H3PO4) react with 9.25g of barium hydroxide, water and insoluble barium phosphate form. [T/I-7] a
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

2 H₃PO₄(aq) + 3 Ba(OH)₂(aq) ⇒ Ba₃(PO₄)₂(s) + 6 H₂O(l)

Explanation:

Let's consider the unbalanced equation that occurs when phosphoric acid reacts with barium hydroxide to form water and barium phosphate. This is a neutralization reaction.

H₃PO₄(aq) + Ba(OH)₂(aq) ⇒ Ba₃(PO₄)₂(s) + H₂O(l)

We will balance it using the trial and error method.

First, we will balance Ba atoms by multiplying Ba(OH)₂ by 3 and P atoms by multiplying H₃PO₄ by 2.

2 H₃PO₄(aq) + 3 Ba(OH)₂(aq) ⇒ Ba₃(PO₄)₂(s) + H₂O(l)

Finally, we will get the balanced equation by multiplying H₂O by 6.

2 H₃PO₄(aq) + 3 Ba(OH)₂(aq) ⇒ Ba₃(PO₄)₂(s) + 6 H₂O(l)

How many electrons are involved in one equivalent of oxidation-reduction?
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

1 electron is involved.

Explanation:

Hello,

In redox reactions, when therer's the necessity to know the involved equivalents, they equal the number of transferred electrons, in this case, since one equivalent is stated, one electron is transferred (involved).

Best regards.

What are the coefficients that will balance this skeleton equation? AlCl3 + NaOH → Al(OH)3 + NaCl
almond37 [142]

Answer:

The coefficients are 1, 3, 1, 3

Explanation:

The equation;

AlCl3 + NaOH → Al(OH)3 + NaCl

can be balanced by using the coefficients  1, 3, 1, 3, such that the balanced equation will be;

AlCl3 + 3NaOH → Al(OH)3 + 3NaCl

Chemical equations needs to be balanced so as to follow the law of conservation of mass. This occurs when the number of the different atoms of elements in the reactants side is equal to that of the products side.

Two chemicals A and B are combined to form a chemical C. The rate, or velocity, of the reaction is proportional to the product o
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

30.6 g of C is formed.

Explanation:

2A + B → C

Average rate of reaction = 2[A]/Δt = [B]/Δt = [C]/Δt

Average rate of reaction = [C]/Δt

Average rate of reaction  = 15 g / 9 min

Average rate of reaction  = 1.7 g of C / min

Average rate of reaction = [C]/Δt

[C] = Average rate of reaction x Δt

[C] = 1.7 g of C / min x 18 min

[C] = 30.6 g of C
