2 types of base pairs in DNA: 
<span>G-C </span>
<span>A-T </span>
<span>Since 40% is T, an equal amount will be A (40%+40%=80%)</span>
<span>20% is left, and this must also be equal, so G is 10% (C is the other 10%)</span>

The half-life of radium-226 is 1590 years. (a) A sample of radium-226 has a mass of 50 mg. Find a formula for the mass of the sa
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

Explanation:

a )

m = m₀ e^{-\lambda t

m is mass after time t . original mass is m₀ , λ is disintegration constant

λ = .693 / half life

= .693 / 1590

= .0004358

m = m₀ e^{- 0.0004358 t}

b )

m = 50 x e^{-.0004358\times 500}

= 40.21 mg .

c )

40 = 50 e^{-.0004358t

.8 = e^{-.0004358t

e^{.0004358t = 1.25

.0004358 t = .22314

t = 512 years .

Actually it's the oxidation number of Mn

Let's find how?

\\ \tt\Rrightarrow x+1+4(-2)=0

\\ \tt\Rrightarrow x+1-8=0

\\ \tt\Rrightarrow x-7=0

\\ \tt\Rrightarrow x=+7

  • x is the oxidation number

#3

  • Purple as per the color of potassium permanganate

What are the characteristics of an extrusive rock
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Extrusive Rocks. Igneous rocks which form by the crystallization of magma at the surface of the Earth are called extrusive rocks. They are characterized by fine-grained textures because their rapid cooling at or near the surface did not provide enough time for large crystals to grow.
