Answer:

175,000

Explanation:

700,000/4=175,000

2 half-lives = approx 175,000

The number of atoms that remains after 2 half-lives given that it was originally 700,000 atoms is 175000 atoms.

<h3>What is a radioactive substance?</h3>

Radiation in the form of radiant particles or rays, is the result of a nuclear disintegration. Radioactive materials are atoms that have stored energy and may disintegrate in the future, releasing radiation.

Data obtained from the question

Original amount (N₀) = 700,000 atoms

Number of half-lives (n) = 2

Amount remaining (N) =?

How to determine the amount remaining

The amount remaining after 2 half-lives can be obtained as illustrated below:

N = N₀ / 2ⁿ

N = 700,000 / 4

N = 175000 atoms

Hence, 175000 atoms remain.

What is the percentage composition of each element in hydrogen peroxide, H2O2?
Degger [83]

Answer:

The percentage composition of each element in H2O2 is 5.88% H and 94.12% O (Option D).

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Molar mass of H = 1.0 g/mol

Molar mass of O = 16 g/mol

Molar mass of H2O2 = 2*1.0 + 2*16 = 34.0 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate % hydrogen

% Hydrogen = ((2*1.0) / 34.0) * 100 %

% hydrogen = 5.88 %

Step 3: Calculate % oxygen

% Oxygen = ((2*16)/34)

% oxygen = 94.12 %

We can control this by the following equation

100 % - 5.88 % = 94.12 %

The percentage composition of each element in H2O2 is 5.88% H and 94.12% O (Option D).

Which of the following characteristics do Element I and Element I have in common?
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

Option C. The same number of energy levels.

Explanation:

From the diagram given above, element (i) belong to group 2 while element (ii) belong to group 6.

Also, both element i and ii belong to the same period (i.e period 4). This simply means that both element i and ii have the same number of energy levels.

NOTE: Elements in the same period have the same number of shells of electrons which simply means they have the same energy levels.

PLEASE HELP ME!!! ASAP

Answer:

Theoretical yield of the reaction = 34 g

Excess reactant is hydrogen

Limiting reactant is nitrogen

Explanation:

Given there is 100 g of nitrogen and 100 g of hydrogen

Number of moles of nitrogen = 100 ÷ 28 = 3·57

Number of moles of hydrogen = 100 ÷ 2 = 50

Reaction between nitrogen and hydrogen yields ammonia according to the following chemical equation

N2 + 3H2 → 2NH3

From the above chemical equation for every mole of nitrogen that reacts, 3 moles of hydrogen will be required and 2 moles of ammonia will be formed

Now we have 3·57 moles of nitrogen and therefore we require 3 × 3·57 moles of hydrogen

⇒ We require 10·71 moles of hydrogen

But we have 50 moles of hydrogen

∴ Limiting reactant is nitrogen and excess reactant is hydrogen

From the balanced chemical equation the yield will be 2 × 3·57 moles of ammonia

Molecular weight of ammonia = 17 g

∴ Theoretical yield of the reaction = 2 × 3·57 × 17 = 121·38 g
