Lead-based paint (LBP) - Correct answer-Any varnish, shallac, or coating that contains either- 1.0 mg/cm2 - 0.5 % by weight - 5000 ppm - Older instruments could not read accurately at 0.7, so the lead standard was updated to 1.0 Dust sample clearance values - Correct answer-- Floors: 40 μg/ft2 > 10 μg/ft2 (10 μg/ft2 in NY) - Windows: 250 μg/ft2 > 100 μg/ft2 (50 μg/ft2 in NY) - Window wells (troughs): 400 μg/ft2 (100 μg/ft2 in NY) - Samples must be at 1 sq ft > 2 sq ft (can ...

Section A Answer all questions in this section. Do not write outside the box Two stable isotopes of helium are 4He and 3He. 2 2 . An atom of 4He is produced in a rock that contains uranium. It is produced following 2 the radioactive decay of a 238U atom. The decay also creates an atom of 92 thorium (Th). Write an equation for the decay of 238U. 92 [2 marks] 238U → 92 . A 3He nucleus can be produced by the decay of a tritium nucleus 3H. 2 1 Stat...

CLEP Chemistry Latest Update Graded A John Dalton Proposed that matter is composed of atoms; these atoms have different identities called elements, which combine to form compounds; measured masses of reactants and products. J.J. Thompson Observed deflection of particles in a cathode ray tube; proposed that atoms are composed of positive and negative charges; developed the plum pudding model of the atom Robert Millikan Calculated the charge-to-mass ratio of electrons using oil drops falling in ...
