Tests on human subjects in Boston in 1965 and 1966, following the era of atomic bomb testing, revealed average quantities of about 2 pCi (7×10−2 dis/s) of plutonium radioactivity in the average person. Suppose each disintegration produces one alpha particle. If each alpha particle deposits 8×10−13J of energy and if the average person weighs 78 kg, calculate the number of rads of radiation in 5 yr from such a level of plutonium. 1 Bq=1 disintegration/s (dps) 1 Ci=3.7×1010 Bq 1 rad=0.01 Gy, 1 Gy=1 J/(kg tissue) 1 rem=0.01 Sv, 1 Sv=1 J/kg

In an effort to address concerns about global warming, a power plant in portland,oregon is designed to take all of its exhaust gases from its boilers and recycle the co2 using the solvay process to make sodium hydrogen carbonate. the reaction is shown below. nh3(g) + h2o(l) + co2(g) + nacl(aq) → nahco3(aq) + nh4cl(aq) how many liters each of nh3 and co2 (both at stp) would be consumed to produce 3.00 kg of sodium bicarbonate? the volume of both nh3 and co2 would be
