Question:

Why is beta stopped by aluminum?

Why is beta stopped by aluminum?

Answer:

Beta particles are essentially electronsAluminum foil is of sufficient density that it will scatter or absorb the betaThere is nothing special about aluminumAny material with a similar density will do the trick.
Al2S3 + 6H2O- 2Al(OH)3 + 3H2S 139g(1 mol H2S/150.14g)(3 mol H2s/1 mol H2S)2.78 mol H2S 2.78mol H2S(34.08 g H2S/1 mol H2S)94.7 g H2S Not sure about thisOh I actually did it right.
