A likely application of a radioactive isotope with a short half-life such as Technetium-99 will be as a medical tracer. It will likely be used by a doctor to check the movement of substances within a person's body.

A radioactive isotope with such a long half-life like Rubidium-87 is likely used in the determination of the age of fossils and artifacts found by archaeologists.<span />

The answer is B. "A doctor would use technetium-99m because a short half-life indicates a quick measurement, and a geologist would use rubidium-87 because a longer half-life means that there is a longer time to measure old rock" on edg

At 273 k and 1.00 x 10^-2 atm, the density of a gas is 1.24 x 10^-5 g/cm3.
bija089 [108]

Root mean square velocity is the square root of the mean of the squares of speeds of different molecules. From kinetic theory of gas, the formula of root mean square velocity=C_{rms}= √\frac{3RT}{M}=√\frac{3PV}{M}=√\frac{3P}{d}, where, R= Universal gas constant, T= Absolute temperature, P= Pressure, V= Volume of gas, d= Density of gas.

Given,  T=273 K, P=1.00 x 10⁻² atm, d=1.24 x 10⁻⁵ g/cm³.

(a) Using the formula C_{rms}=√\frac{3P}{d}=√(3X1.00X10⁻²)/(1.24X10⁻⁵)=49.18

(b) Molar mass can be determined by using the formula C_{rms}=√{3RT}{M}

49.18=√\frac{3X8.314X273}{M}

49.18²=√(3X8.314X273)/M

M=\frac{3X8.314X273}{49.18^{2} }

M=1.67 ≅ 2

Molecular mass is 2.

(c) The gas is Helium (He) whose molecular mass is 2.

How long does vacuum sealed raw meat last in the freezer?
Allushta [10]

Answer:

Frozen Meats – Frozen raw meats that are properly vacuum sealed can be stored in the freezer from 1-3 years depending on the type of meat. However, raw meat that is not vacuum sealed will only last 1-12 months depending on the meat.

Vesna [10]

Answer:

q = 40.57 kJ; w = -3.10 kJ; strong H-bonds must be broken.

Explanation:

1. Heat absorbed

q = nΔH = 1 mol × (40.57 kJ/1 mol) = 40.57 kJ

2. Change in volume

V(water) = 0.018 L

pV = nRT

1 atm × V = 1 mol × 0.082 06 L·atm·K⁻¹mol⁻¹ × 373.15 K

V = 30.62 L

ΔV = V(steam) - V(water) = 30.62 L - 0.018 L = 30.60 L

3. Work done

w = -pΔV = - 1 atm × 30.60 L = -30.60 L·atm

w = -30.60 L·atm × (101.325 J/1 L·atm) = -3100 J = -3.10 kJ

4. Why the difference?

Every gas does 3.10 kJ of work when it expands at 100 °C and 1 atm.

The difference is in the heat of vaporization. Water molecules are strongly hydrogen bonded to each other, so it takes a large amount of energy to convert water from the liquid phase to the vapour phase.
