Answer:
See below
Explanation:Plot the known concentrations and adsorbance data. Draw a best fit line through thwe points. When the absorbance of a solution of unknown concentration (but same substance) is determined, find the concentration from the line at that absorption value. See attached graph.
E.g., an sample of the same substance had an absorbance of 0.35. Find that on the x scale and then determine the concentration that would be required to produce that level of absorbance. 0.483M in this case.

Answer: half life
Explanation: Radioactive decay follows first order kinetics and the time required for the decay of a radioactive material is calculated as follows:
t= time required
k= disintegration constant
x= amount of substance left after time t
a= initial amount of substance
when one half of the sample is decayed, one half of the sample remains and t can be represented as
