The quantity of substance remains after 850 years is 8.98g if the half life of radioactive radium is 1,599 years.

<h3>What is half life period? </h3>

The time taken by substance to reduce to its half of its initial concentration is called half life period.

We will use the half- life equation N(t)

N e^{(-0.693t) /t½}

Where,

N is the initial sample

t½ is the half life time period of the substance

t2 is the time in years.

N(t) is the reminder quantity after t years .

Given

N = 13g

t = 350 years

t½ = 1599 years

By substituting all the value, we get

N(t) = 13e^(0.693 × 50) / (1599)

= 13e^(- 0.368386)

= 13 × 0.691

= 8.98

Thus, we calculated that the quantity of substance remains after 850 years is 8.98g if the half life of radioactive radium is 1,599 years.

Which chemical equation represents a decomposition reaction?
MrMuchimi

Decomposition reaction D. 2H20⇒ 2H2 + O2

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Every chemical reaction involves a compound consisting of reactants and products  

Reactants are compounds that react and form new compounds called products

There are several forms of reactions that can occur, including single replacement, double replacement, synthesis, decomposition, etc.

A. 2C2H6 + 702 ⇒ 4CO2 + 6H20

Combustion : reaction of Hydrocarbon and Oxygen

B. AgNO3 + LiCl → AgCl + LINO3

Double replacement : there is an ion exchange between two ion compounds in the reactant to form two new ion compounds in the product

C. Ca + MgS → CaS + Mg

Single replacement :one element replaces the other elements of a compound to produce new elements and compounds

D. 2H20⇒ 2H2 + O2

Decomposition : One compound breaks down into 2 components

Lemonade is an example of a compound because the particles retain their original chemical properties and identity.
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Compounds are chemically combined

lemonade is not

If the squeezed lemonade is made by squeezing lemons to extract the juice and mixing it with water and sugar, it would be a homogenous mixture.

If it contains a pulp than it would be heterogeneous
