After 1 min, three radioactive nuclei remain from an original sample of six. Is it valid to conclude that t₁/₂ equals 1 min? Is

this conclusion valid if the original sample contained 6X10¹² nuclei and 3X10¹²remain after 1 min? Explain.

Three of them may have decayed more quickly or more slowly than they should have according to the likelihood at that particular moment. However, suppose we have a lot of radioactive new Clyde's, say six times 10 to the 12, and we have three times 10 to the 12 in a minute. The rate may then be averaged out because there are a sufficient number of radioactive new Clyde's. Furthermore, we can say with confidence that the half life is one minute.

<h3>What is radioactivity?</h3>

Radioactivity, as its name suggests, is the act of generating radiation without any external cause. An atomic nucleus that is unstable for whatever reason does this by "wanting" to give up some energy in order to change its configuration to one that is more stable. Modern physics spent a lot of time in the first half of the 20th century figuring out why this occurs, which led to a pretty solid understanding of nuclear decay by 1960. A nucleus with too many neutrons will produce a negative beta particle, which will convert one of the neutrons into a proton. A nucleus with too many protons will emit positrons, which are positively charged electrons that turn protons into neutrons.

A mole of Big Macs stacked would reach from the earth to the moon and back how many times?
OLga [1]
A mol=6.02*10^23
so
distance from earth to moon is 230,100 miles
1 big mac is about 2 inches
1 mile=5280 feet=63360inches

230,100 times 63360=14,579,136,000 inches is distance
6.02 times 10^23 times 2=x times 14,579,136,000
divide both sides by 2
6.02 times 10^23=x times 7,289,568,000
divide both sides by 6.02
10^23=x times 1210891694.35159
divide both sides by  1210891694.35159
825583769024485.8
about 825,583,769,024,486 times

Convert 15.2 moles of K to atoms of K.
choli [55]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 9.15*10^{24} \ atoms \ K}}

Explanation:

To convert atoms to moles, Avogadro's Number must be used: 6.022*10²³.

This tells us the amount of particles (atoms, molecules, etc.) in 1 mole of a substance. In this case it is the atoms of potassium. We can create a ratio.

\frac {6.022*10^{23} \ atoms \ K }{ 1 \ mol \ K }

Multiply by the given number of moles: 15.2

15.2 \ mol \ K *\frac {6.022*10^{23} \ atoms \ K }{ 1 \ mol \ K }

The moles of potassium cancel.

15.2 *\frac {6.022*10^{23} \ atoms \ K }{ 1 }

The denominator of 1 can be ignored.

15.2 * {6.022*10^{23} \ atoms \ K }{

Multiply.

9.15344*10^{24} \ atoms \ K

The original measurement of moles has 3 significant figures, so our answer must have the same. For the number we calculated that is the hundredth place. The 3 in the thousandth place tells us to leave 5.

9.15*10^{24} \ atoms \ K

In 15.2 moles of potassium, there are <u>9.15*10²⁴ atoms of potassium.</u>

How many sulfate ions are there in 321 grams of iron lll sulfate
nikitadnepr [17]
Here, we use the mole as we would use any other collective number: a dozen eggs; a Bakers' dozen; a Botany Bay dozen.
Of course, the mole specifies a much larger quantity, and if I have a mole of stuff then I have
6.022
×
10
23
individual items of that stuff. We can also specify an equivalent mass, because we also know the mass of a mole of iron, and a mole of oxygen etc........The mole is thus the link between the macro world of grams and kilograms and litres, that which we can measure out in the lab, to the micro world of atoms, and molecules, that which we can perceive only indirectly.
Here we have the formula unit
F

(

. If there is a mole of formula units, there are necessarily 2 moles of iron atoms, 3 sulfate ions,.......etc.
