Body cells are made of atoms and if ionising radiation occurs, your cells would lose electrons and this could cause mutations etc

Is the degree of ionisation affected by dilution?
Yes
Is the ionisation energy of sodium same as chlorine?
No
Why the first ionisation energy of potassium is only a little less than the ionisation energy of sodium?
both are in the same period which accounts for closeness. they are nonetheless different because there are more protons in the nucleus which means electrons are brought closer to it so there is a higher ionisation energy or potential
What is more corrosive Sulfuric acid or Carbonic acid?
The "corrosiveness" of an acid depends mainly on two aspectsThe concentration of the acid - even the most corrosive acid is not dangerous at low concentrations e.g. 0.001 mol/LThe % ionisation of the acid - This determines whether the acid is a strong acid (100% ionisation of the first H+ atom) or a weak acid (significantly less than 100% ionisation of the first H+ atom) Sulfuric acids first ionisation H2SO4 + H2O ==> HSO4- + H3O+Carbonic Acids first H2CO3 + H2O HCO3- + H3O+With this information, and the fact that we know sulfuric acid is a strong acid and carbonic acid is a weak acid, sulfuric acid is more corrosive than carbonic acid (at the same concentration
What does smelling glue do to you?
Smelling many synthetic glues is dangerous to your brain cells.
Ionisation energy of noble gases?
noble gases have the maximum ionisation energy. helium has the highest ionisation energy
Are goblet cells dangerous?
Goblet cells are not dangerous; they are a normal part of human anatomy.
Are cancer cells dangerous?
Yes cancer cells are dangerous. Malignant cancer cells are the most dangerous as they can replicate and move to different parts of the body. Benign cancer cells are far less dangerous and don't replicate or move around the body.
Why are the ionisation energy of isotopes the same?
no the same,first ionisation contains a slightly differences in isotopes
Is ionisation enthalpy of potassium higher than that of sodium?
The ionisation enthalpy of potassium is lower than that of sodium.
Is pus cells is 2 to 4 is dangerous?
no
Why is using a virus to change a cells DNA dangerous?
DNA change/ mutations can be dangerous
How does the ionisation energy change down the groups in the periodic table?
Ionisation energy decreases down the group. It is easy to remove an electron.
How can ionisation damage living cells?
ionising radiation can break molecules into ions. these ions take part in other chemical reactions in the body cells. for example these ionization can break the bonds in the DNA bases and cause mutations. or can interrupt with the processes like respiration that provides cell with energy. ionisation can also produce radicals that take part in other chemical reactions in the body like electric impulses from the brain and can damage the nervous system. hope that helps !)
When does a virus become dangerous?
when it conncets to the cells in your body
Is the degree of ionisation affected by dilution?

Is the ionisation energy of sodium same as chlorine?
No
