Answer:

36 years

Explanation:

2 =  16   *   (1/2)^n          where n is the number of half lives

2/16 = (1/2)^n

1/8 =  (1/2)^n

log (1/8)  = log (1/2^n)

log(1/8) =  n log (1/2)

log ( 1/8 ) / log(1/2) = n = 3  half lives

each half life is 12 years    so  3 * 12 = 36 years

The device shows the relative humidity at 22°
sergeinik [125]
The relative humidity shows us saturation of water in air. Since it is 58% and not 100% we have to scale density that we were given when humidity is 100%.

At 100% humidity, density is 20grams/cubic meter

at 58% it will be:
0.58 * 20 = 11.6 g/m^3

Since the question is to find density, the answer cannot be in %.

Answer is 11.6 g/m^3

What is the mass of 1.71 ✕ 1023 molecules of h2so4?
Anuta_ua [19.1K]
The equation for calculating a mass is as follows:

m=n×M

Molar mass (M) we can determine from Ar that can read in a periodical table, and a number of moles we can calculate from the available date for N:

n(H2SO4)=N/NA

n(H2SO4)= 1.7×10²³ / 6 × 10²³

n(H2SO4)= 0.3 mole

Now we can calculate a mass of H2SO4:

m(H2SO4) = n×M = 0.3 × 98 = 27.8 g

hi, 100 points, , will also mark brainly-ist (what's the boiling point of water) ((you don't need to answer that))​
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

212 degrees F, and 100 degrees C.

Explanation:

If the temperature is held constant (which requires some heat input, since evaporation cools things) the liquid will all evaporate. If the temperature is much above 212 F, the water will boil. That means that it wont just evaporate from the surface but will form vapor bubbles, which then grow, inside the liquid itself.   :)
