    Question Chain Thread !!!

    technecium-99m is easily incorporated into a range of biological molecules. This means that it can be incorporated into molecules that are accumulated by specific by organs in the body. Thus, specific organs are able to be imaged . Cobalt-60 is not taken up by organs in the body, thus it cannot...

    "do u know an easy way 2 learn solubility rules?" write them over and over and over and over and over and over and over again as for variables and reliability, they're important in a round-a-bout-way because when you repeat the experiment to achieve reliability, those same variables must...

    Question Chain Thread !!!

    Flow injection analysis is a technology now beginning to be used by various local water authorities to accurately determine the concentration in ppm (ppb for some ions, but not phosphate) of phosphate ions in the water. It works by injecting a reagent into a water sample, the products then flow...

    Question Chain Thread !!!

    dunno about calorimetry which measures energy, but colourimetry on the other hand... Eutrophication is the enrichment of a water way with excessive nutrients, namlely phospate and nitrate. The soluble nitrate content of a water sample can be determined instrumentally using a colourimeter...

    If they ask about the production of polyethylene

    i think only one is generally necessary to know well, just be aware of how the different processes produce different chain lengths affecting properties
