A 70.-kg person exposed to ⁹⁰Sr absorbs 6.0X10⁵ β⁻ particles, each with an energy of 8.74X10⁻¹⁴ J.
<h3>What is β⁻ particles ?</h3>
A beta particle, also known as a beta ray or beta radiation (symbol ), is a highly energetic, swiftly moving electron or positron that is released during the radioactive disintegration of an atomic nucleus. Beta decay occurs in two ways: decay and + decay, which result in the production of electrons and positrons, respectively.
In air, beta particles with an energy of 0.5 MeV have a range of roughly one meter; the range is energy-dependent.
Ionizing radiation of the sort known as beta particles is regarded, for the purposes of radiation protection, as being more ionizing than gamma rays but less ionizing than alpha particles. The damage to live tissue increases as the ionizing effect increases, but so does the radiation's penetration power.

Avogadro's number is the number of atoms in one mole of a substance. The number is 6.022 x 10^23 atoms/mol. So, if you have 1 mole of carbon atoms, there will be 6.022 x 10^23 atoms in that sample.
Hope this helps

Hello there,
<em><u>Option B</u></em>. "A scientific law describes what always happens under specific conditions in nature." is the correct answer.

Answer:
Ionization energy increases going left to right across a period and increases from bottom to top in a group
Electron affinity increases when going up a group
If we are excluding noble gases (aka group 8/18), Chlorine is the element that has the greatest electron affinity. This is because Fluorine's 2p orbital is limited and packed which doesn't quite allow sharing of the orbital with extra electrons easily, while Chlorine has a 3p orbital allowing more space for electrons, where the orbital electrons would be inclined to do so.
Helium is the element with the greatest ionization energy since it's at the top and energy (from Oganesson to Helium) increases when going across a period (from Hydrogen to Helium).
