• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

Gamma rays produce minimum ionization in gases.
The ionizing power of $\gamma -rays$ is very low.
The ionizing power of $\alpha$ particles is about 100 times that of $\beta$ particles.
The ionizing power of $\beta$ particles is about 100 times that of $\gamma$ rays.
The ionizing power of $\alpha$ particles is very high.
