I don't know terribly much about radioactive decay, but yes, it WILL decay. If it's half life is 25 days, it will be completely consumed in 50 days. By 100 days, it should be long gone. As far as I know, the reason for this is (besides the simple math which is self-explanatory) the Thorium has so many protons/neutrons, it's unstable and thus undergoes radioactive decay as it cannot maintain stable form.
I hope this helps! :)
Answer:
Explanation:
Dmitri Mendeleev developed a chart-like arrangement of the elements called the Periodic Table ______ . He stated that if the elements were listed in order of increasing atomic mass______, their properties repeated in a regular manner. He called this the periodicity of properties ______ of the elements. The arrangement used today differs from that of Mendeleev in that the elements are arranged in order of increasing atomic number______. Each horizontal row of elements is called a(n)period ______. Each vertical column is called a(n) column_____, or , because of the resemblance between elements in the same column, a(n) __group____.
Answer:
14.9 g is the ideal yield of Cu(NO₃)₂
Explanation:
Reactants for the reaction: Cu and AgNO₃
Products: Copper nitrate and Ag
The balanced reaction is: Cu(s) + 2AgNO₃(aq) → 2Ag (s) + Cu(NO₃)₂
As the silver nitrate is in excess, the Cu will be the limiting reagent.
We convert the mass to moles → 5.05 g . 1 mol/ 63.55 g = 0.0794 moles
Ratio is 1:1, so 0.0794 moles will produce 0.0794 moles of Cupper(II) nitrate. We convert the moles to mass, and that value will be the theoretical yield.
0.0794 mol . 187.55 g /1 mol = of Cu(NO₃)₂
