Answer:
The correct answer is periods. See the explanation below, please.
Explanation:
The horizontal lines in the periodic table are called periods (ranging from 1 to 7) and vertical lines (ranging from 1 to 18).
The period that an element belongs to coincides with the last electronic layer of the element (that compound in period 3 will have 2 electronic layers).
Answer:
Radiation effects on electrical equipment depend on the equipment and on the type of ionizing radiation to which it is exposed.
First, beta radiation has little, if any, effect on electrical equipment because this type of ionizing radiation is easily shielded. The equipment housing and the construction of the parts within the housing will protect the equipment from beta-radiation (high-energy electrons) exposure.
Gamma radiation is penetrating and can affect most electrical equipment. Simple equipment (like motors, switches, incandescent lights, wiring, and solenoids) is very radiation resistant and may never show any radiation effects, even after a very large radiation exposure. Diodes and computer chips (electronics) are much more sensitive to gamma radiation. To give you a comparison of effects, it takes a radiation dose of about 5 Sv to cause death to most people. Diodes and computer chips will show very little functional detriment up to about 50 to 100 Sv. Also, some electronics can be "hardened" (made to be not affected as much by larger gamma radiation doses) by providing shielding or by selecting radiation-resistant materials.
Some electronics do exhibit a recovery after being exposed to gamma radiation, after the radiation is stopped. But the recovery is hardly ever back to 100% functionality. Also, if the electronics are exposed to gamma radiation while unpowered, the gamma radiation effects are less.
Ionizing radiation breaks down the materials within the electrical equipment. For example, when wiring is exposed to gamma rays, no change is noticed until the wiring is flexed or bent. The wire's insulation becomes brittle and will break and may cause shorts in the equipment. The effect on diodes and computer chips is a bit more complex. The gamma rays disrupt the crystalline nature of the inside of the electronic component. Its function is degraded and then fails as more gamma radiation exposure is received by the electronic component.
Gamma rays do not affect the signals within the device or the signals received by the device. Nonionizing radiation (like radio signals, microwaves, and electromagnetic pulses) DO mess with the signals within and received by the device. I put a cheap electronic game in my microwave oven at home. It arced and sparked and was totally ruined. I didn’t waste any more of my time playing that game.
Hope this helps.

Hi there!
Let me know if you have questions about my answer:
6.15 × 10²⁴
Explanation:
To find the number of atoms, divide the mass of calcium (m) by its molar mass (MM). This will give you the number of moles of calcium (n).
Start with a formula
Substitute values from the question
Simplify
Cancel out the units "g"
Number of moles of calcium, with 4 significant figures
Then, multiply the number of moles of calcium (n) by Avogadro's number () to find the number of calcium atoms.
Start with a formula
Substitute values from the question
Simplify
Cancel out the units "mol"
Multiply, leave one extra digit to help round. "4" tells you to round down.
Final answer to 3 significant figures*
*When multiplying and dividing numbers, your final answer will have the same number of significant figures as the number with the least number of significant figures in the question.
40.08 has 4 significant figures. 41.0 has 3 significant figures. So, you want 3 significant figures in your final answer.
I hope this helps!
