From the calculations and the information taht we can glean from the question, the mass of the antibiotic left after 12 hours is 8.59 mg.

<h3>What is decay?</h3>

The term decay has to do with the breakdown of a chemical substance. Since the decay depends only on the initial amount of the drug the process folows the first order kinetics.

Hence;

N = amount left at time t

No= amount initual present

t = time taken

t1/2 = half life of the drug

N/No = (1/2)^t/t1/2

N/550 = (1/2)^12/2

N = 550[(1/2)^12/2]

N = 8.59 mg

How are DNA profiling and blood connected?
Anna [14]

Answer:

Hi there,

They are connected because both of them find identities to someone. All DNA Profiling is, is using either semen, blood, urine, even a strand of hair to test and find whoever left those categories behind. It is used in forensic science that is where they can find the victim's identity or find the suspect.

DNA Profiling and Blood are the same things, in fact, blood IS part of DNA profiling it helps with the testing process in forensic science.

I hope this helped :)
