Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Metals contain valence electrons and these electrons are free to move from one place to another.

Therefore, due to the presence of mobile electrons metals can easily conduct electricity.

Thus, metals are good conductors of heat and electricity because there are free moving atoms in metals that carry both heat and electric current.

The radioisotope phosphorus-32 is used in tracers for measuring phosphorus uptake by plants. The half-life of phosphorus-32 is 1
Harman [31]

Answer:

54 days

Explanation:

We have to use the formula;

0.693/t1/2 =2.303/t log Ao/A

Where;

t1/2= half-life of phosphorus-32= 14.3 days

t= time taken for the activity to fall to 7.34% of its original value

Ao=initial activity of phosphorus-32

A= activity of phosphorus-32 after a time t

Note that;

A=0.0734Ao (the activity of the sample decreased to 7.34% of the activity of the original sample)

Substituting values;

0.693/14.3 = 2.303/t log Ao/0.0734Ao

0.693/14.3 = 2.303/t log 1/0.0734

0.693/14.3 = 2.6/t

0.048=2.6/t

t= 2.6/0.048

t= 54 days

What is a planned goal of the Exploration Mission 2?
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

C. to explore the composition of Mars

Explanation:

Initially, in 2019, an unmanned mission is planned to orbit the moon. The spacecraft would flyby the moon.  In 2020's, the Exploration Mission 2 would be a manned mission on the same path around the moon. This would be the base for future goal of collecting samples from mars. In later of 2020's unmanned spacecraft would be sent to mars and a robot would collect the samples from the Martian surface. In 2030's, a crew would be sent to Mars.

A sample of oxygen occupies 47.2 liters under a pressure of 1240 torr at 298K. What volume would it occupy at 303K if the pressu
kupik [55]

Answer:

81.5 L

Explanation:

We can use the combined gas law equation that gives the relationship among pressure, temperature and volume of gases for a fixed amount of gas.

P1V1 / T1 = P2V2 / T2

where P1 - pressure, V1 - volume and T1 - temperature at the first instance

P2 - pressure, V2 - volume and T2 - temperature at the second instance

substituting the values in the equation

1240 Torr x 47.2 L / 298 K = 730 Torr x V2 / 303 K

V2 = 81.5 L

the new volume the gas would occupy when the conditions have changed is 81.5 L
