is radiation beneficial or harmful to society explain why

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Radiation isn't beneficial to society .Radiation damages the cells that make up the human body. Low levels of radiation are not dangerous, but medium levels can lead to sickness, headaches, vomiting and a fever. High levels can kill you by causing damage to your internal organs. It's difficult to treat high radiation exposure.

Explanation:

Exposure to very high levels of radiation, such as being close to an atomic blast, can cause acute health effects such as skin burns and acute radiation syndrome (“radiation sickness"). It can also result in long-term health effects such as cancer and cardiovascular disease.

Answer 2

Radiation is both harmful and beneficial, but when we analyse it is found that harms overweight benefits. Radiation can be used as a form of energy (in nuclear plants), but an accident or malfunction in it can lead to death and injury of humans. Also, it is really difficult to dispose the used devices.

(1) The solubility of Salt AB2(s) is 5mol/dm^3. (a) Obtain an expression for the solubility product of Salt AB2,in terms of s.

Answers

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Let the equation of dissolution be;

AB2(s) ⇄A(aq) + 2S

Hence;

Ksp = [A] [2s]^2

Let the concentration of the species be s

Ksp= s × (2s)^2

Ksp= 4s^3

Since s= 5mol/dm^3

Ksp = 4(5mol/dm^3)^3

Ksp = 500 mol^2dm^-6

If 3.02 g of CuNO3 is dissolved in water to make a 0.560 M solution, what is the volume of the solution in milliliters?

Answers

Answer: The volume of the solution is 28.75 mL

Explanation:

Molarity is defined as the amount of solute expressed in the number of moles present per liter of solution. The units of molarity are mol/L. The formula used to calculate molarity:

[tex]\text{Molarity of solution}=\frac{\text{Given mass of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times \text{Volume of solution (mL)}}[/tex] .....(1)

Given values:

Molarity of copper nitrate = 0.560 M

Given mass of copper nitrate = 3.02 g

Molar mass of copper nitrate = 187.56 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

[tex]0.560=\frac{3.02\times 1000}{187.56\times \text{Volume of solution}}\\\\\text{Volume of solution}=\frac{3.02\times 1000}{187.56\times 0.560}=28.75mL[/tex]

Hence, the volume of the solution is 28.75 mL

of 1.0 atm. What will be the new volume when the temperature is changed
to 40.0K and the pressure is changed to
0.5 atm?

Answers

Answer:

4000mL

Explanation:

Using the combined gas law equation;

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

Where;

P1 = initial pressure (atm)

P2 = final pressure (atm)

V1 = initial volume (mL)

V2 = final volume (mL)

T1 = initial temperature (K)

T2 = final temperature (K)

According to the information given in this question:

V1 = 1000mL

T1 = 20K

P1 = 1.0atm

V2 = ?

P2 = 0.5atm

T2 = 40K

Using P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

1 × 1000/20 = 0.5 × V2/40

1000/20 = 0.5V2/40

50 = 0.5V2/40

50 × 40 = 0.5V2

2000 = 0.5V2

V2 = 2000/0.5

V2 = 4000mL

How do the Carnivorous plants survive without soil?

Answers

Answer:

Carnivorous plants are easy to grow, if you follow a few, simple rules.

Wet all of the time.
Mineral-free water.
Mineral-free soil.
Lots of light.


Wet all of the time.
Carnivorous plants are native to bogs and similar nutrient-poor habitats. As a consequence, the plants live in conditions that are constantly damp. To grow healthy carnivorous plants, it is important to duplicate their habitat as closely as possible. Keep the soil wet or at least damp all of the time. The easiest way to do this is use the tray method. Set the pots in a tray or saucer, and keep water in it at all times. Pitcher plants can grow in soggy soil with the water level in the saucer as deep as 1/2 the pot, but most carnivorous plants prefer damp to wet soil, so keep the water at about 1/4 inch and refill as soon as it is nearly gone. Water from below, by adding water to the tray, rather than watering the plant. This will avoid washing away the sticky muscilage of the sundews and butterworts and keep from closing the flytraps with a false alarm.


Mineral-free water.
Always use mineral-free water with your carnivorous plants, such as rainwater or distilled water. Try keeping a bucket near the downspout to collect rainwater. Distilled water can be purchased at the grocery store, but avoid bottled drinking water. There are simply too many minerals in it. The condensation line from an air conditioner or heat pump is another source of mineral-free water. Reverse-osmosis water is fine to use. Carnivorous plants grow in nutrient poor soils. The minerals from tap water can “over-fertilize” and “burn out” the plants. In a pinch, tap water will work for a short while, but flush out the minerals with generous portions of rainwater, when it is available.


Mineral-free soil.
The nutrient poor soils to which the carnivorous plants have adapted are often rich in peat and sand. This can be duplicated with a soil mixture of sphagnum peat moss and horticultural sand. Be sure to check the peat label for sphagnum moss. Other types will not work well. The sand should be clean and washed. Play box sand is great, and so is horticultural sand. Avoid “contractor’s sand” which will contain fine dust, silt, clay and other minerals. Never use beach sand or limestone based sand. The salt content will harm the plants. The ratio of the mix is not critical, 1 part peat with 1 part sand works well for most carnivorous plants. Flytraps prefer a bit more sand, and nepenthes prefer much more peat. Use plastic pots, as terra cotta pots will leach out minerals over time and stress your plants.

Answer:

A simple answer: Carnivores don't eat plants only flesh. So they would not need soil. But it would be hard for Carnivores to get energy because they get energy indirectly from the animals (herbivores) that they eat. How do they get the energy from a herbivore you might ask. Herbivores eat only plants and that gives the herbivore the plant's energy; but if the herbivore gets eaten, it is indirectly transferred into the Carnivore. Hope this helped!!

Carnivore = only feeds on flesh

Herbivore = eats only plants

Omnivore = eats plants and animals/flesh

A boulder rests on a ledge 31.2 m above a lake. If it has 2.65 x 10 J of gravitational
potential energy relative to the lake surface, what is the mass of the boulder?

Answers

Answer:

This question is incomplete, the gravitational potential energy is 2.65 x 10^5 J

mass of the boulder = 866.7g

Explanation:

Potential energy (P.E) refers to the energy due to the position of a body. It can be calculated as follows:

P.E = m × g × h

Where;

m = mass of substance (g)

g = acceleration due to gravity (m/s²)

h = height (m)

According to the information provided in this question,

h = 31.2 m

g = 9.8m/s²

m = ?

P.E = 2.65 x 10^5 J

Using P.E = m × g × h

2.65 x 10^5 = m × 9.8 × 31.2

2.65 x 10^5 = 305.76m

265000 = 305.76m

m = 265000 ÷ 305.76

m = 866.69

mass of the boulder = 866.7g

What is meant by term valency? Explain it in terms of electrons donations and acceptance.​

Answers

Answer:

Valency can be defined as a measure of the combining power of a chemical element with other atoms to form a molecule or chemical compound.

Explanation:

An atom can be defined as the smallest unit comprising of matter that forms all chemical elements. Thus, atoms are basically the building blocks of matters and as such determines or defines the structure of a chemical element.

Generally, atoms are typically made up of three distinct particles and these are protons, neutrons and electrons.

In Chemistry, electrons can be defined as subatomic particles that are negatively charged and as such has a magnitude of -1.

Valence electrons can be defined as the number of electrons present in the outermost shell of an atom. Valence electrons are used to determine whether an atom or group of elements found in a periodic table can bond with others. Thus, this property is typically used to determine the chemical properties of elements.

Valency can be defined as a measure of the combining power of a chemical element with other atoms to form a molecule or chemical compound.

Typically, valency is measured by the amount of hydrogen atoms that a chemical element can combine with or displace to form a molecule or chemical compound.

For example, Oxygen has a total number of eight (8) electrons while neon has total number of ten (10) electrons. Therefore, an atom of oxygen is able to gain (accept or receive) two (2) more electrons in order to have the same electron arrangements as the noble gas i.e an atom of neon with an atomic number of 10.
