organic and nulclear chem?

Question

1.We can fairly say any of the following about carbon compounds except that


A.most carbon compounds are ionic
B.carbon atoms bond easily with other carbon atoms
C.their covalent bonds make most carbon compounds molecular
D.organic chemical reaction tend to be slow


2.If you pass radiation between two charged plates, which two kinds of radiation emmisions will be attracted and bent toward a negative plate?

A.positrons and alpha particles
B.Beta particles and gamma rays
C.Gamma rays and positrons
D.Alpha particles and beta particles

Answer 1

The answer to the first question is "A."

I think you have a typo in the second question. In order for radiation to bend towards a negative plate it has to be positive. Gamma ray have no charge, alpha particles are basically high speed electrons which are negative, beta particles are basically helium nuclei (positive because of the 2 protons), positron are for lack of a better comparison positive electrons.

Therefore, the two that would bend towards a negative plate are positrons and beta particles, but that is not one of your answers.
