The amount of the 240 g sample of the radioisotope that will remain after 525 billion years is 7.5 g

<h3>How to the number of half-lives that has elapsed</h3>
  • Half-life (t½) = 105 billion years
  • Time (t) = 525 billion years
  • Number of half-lives (n) = ?

n = t / t½

n = 525 / 105

n = 5

<h3>How to determine the amount remaining</h3>
  • Original amount (N₀) = 240 g
  • Number of half-lives (n) = 5
  • Amount remaining (N) = ?

N = N₀ / 2ⁿ

N = 240 / 2⁵

N = 240 / 32

N = 7.5 g

1. A gas sample at a pressure of 5.00 atm has a volume of 3.00 L. If the gas pressure is changed to 760 mm Hg, what volume will
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

V₂ =  15.00 atm

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial pressure = 5.00 atm

Initial volume = 3.00 L

Final pressure = 760 mmHg ( 760/760 = 1 atm)

Final volume = ?

Solution:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

V₂ = P₁V₁ /  P₂

V₂ =  5.00 atm × 3.00 L / 1 atm

V₂ =  15.00 atm

Which group on the periodic table would have zero electronegativity because they have a full octet?
bija089 [108]
The group on the periodic table that would have 0 electronegativity due to the fact that their valence shell is full, i.e, have a full octet would be the inert or noble gases. They have a total of 8 electrons in their valence shell and are thus inert and cannot strongly attract electrons toward itself, from neighbouring atom electrons as it does not need to.
