Why does glass in welder's goggles contain neodymium and praseodymium?
They absorb high energy radiation.
What is the krypton problem?
In nuclear reactors, krypton can absorb enough neutrons to slow or stop the chain reaction.
What element is used in the control rods of nuclear reactors?
One or more elements that strongly absorb neutrons, some are:cadmiumboronhafniumetc.
What absorbs neutrons in a nuclear reactor and begins with C?
We see the use of control rods in a reactor to absorb neutrons. These rods are often made of boron.
How is hafnium used in life?
Hafnium is used for many things in the scientific and nuclear world. The most common being this:1. The most important use of hafnium is in nuclear reactors for nuclear fission experiments. Hafnium can absorb neutrons easily and effectively. Hence, it is used in these experiments.2. It is used to create The Hafnium Bomb.3. It is used in gas and incandescent lamps.
Does marijuana plants help absorb nuclear radiation?
Plants do absorb some radiation from contamination by airborne radiation or from the soil after contaminated dust has settled on it. Marijuana would be similar if grown outside, however I believe some is grown in indoor warm rooms, this should be clear. Not a good idea to smoke something that is contaminated though, probably more harmful than eating some food with similar contamination, as that would pass through you fairly quickly whilst if absorbed into the lungs it could stay there some time (I am not medically qualified, just giving my thoughts)
Which layer of the atmosphere does not absorb solar radiation?
Troposphere does not absorb solar radiation. All other layers do not absorb.
What are nuclear reactors made from?
Reactors are typically made from concrete,steel and lined with lead, the combination of these materials and built into a strong shape(bullet shaped or spherical shaped etc..) make up a nuclear reactor, these materials also absorb the radiation produced inside the nuclear reactor(lead absorbs gamma radiation and concrete absorbs neutron radiation).
What are Two ways gases can affect radiation?
Gases absorb radiation and some is absorbed in the atmosphere :)
Do all molecules absorb infrared radiation?
No all molecules do not absorb infrared radiation. Some of them do.
Does white plastic absorb or transmit solar radiation?
White anything will REFLECT radiation, it will not transmit or absorb.
Can you absorb marijuana through pores?
No
What sort of radiation absorbs or reflect radiation?
It doesn't absorb clever. It penetrates, and it can penetrate paper, smoke, a layer of skin and thin aluminium.
Differentiate nuclear chemistry from other branches of chemistry?
The one difference that nuclear chemistry has from the other branches is its study of the nucleus (core) of the atom. Nuclear chemistry will deal with how the nucleus can split, absorb and release energy as radiation, and decompose to form different elements.
Does black absorb or reflect?
Black absorbs radiation. A perfectly black body would absorb all the radiation that is incident upon it.
Does the thermosphere absorb ultraviolet?
The ozone layer absorbs ultraviolet radiation. The ozone layer is in the stratosphere. So, the thermosphere does not absorb radiation.
Which gases absorb ultraviolent radiation?
The gas which absorb ultraviolet radiation is ozone. It absorbs the harmful Uv radiations from the sun.
