How to identify the types of radiation given off by radioactive particles?
identify the given
How do properties identify substances?
yes
Why can't you just evaporate a liquid to find out what substances were dissolved in it?
Because many substances can be dissolved in liquids ! To identify these substances a detailed chemical analysis of the residues after evaporation is necessary.
What is the difference between a characteristic property and non-characteristic property?
PHYSICAL (smell, color, texture, size, etc)--NON CHARACTERISTIC GENERAL (general stuff about the substance all together)-CHARACTERISTIC Characteristic properties help us identify pure substances or the group it belongs to. Non-characteristic properties cannot help us identify pure substances or the group it belongs to.
Why is it important to identify substances by their physical and chemical properties?
These properties are specific for each substance.

WHAT IS Esma work in bts?
Esma is an abbreviation that stands for electromagnetic spectrum analyzer. This device is used to measure and analyze the electromagnetic spectrum to detect and identify different radio frequency signals. It is a tool commonly used in telecommunications and radio frequency engineering.

How can you identify that the given substances is salt or water?
salt is a solid but water is a liquid
What can ultraviolet penetrate?
Ultraviolet (UV) light is electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength shorter than that of visible light, but longer than x-rays, in the range 10 nm to 400 nm, and energies from 3 eV to 124 eV. It is so named because the spectrum consists of electromagnetic waves with frequencies higher than those that humans identify as the color violet.UV light is found in sunlight and is emitted by electric arcs and specialized lights such as black lights. As an ionizing radiation it can cause chemical reactions, and causes many substances to glow or fluoresce. Most people are aware of the effects of UV through the painful condition of sunburn or the looks of tanning, but the UV spectrum has many other effects, both beneficial and damaging, on human health.
