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

Calculate the mass percent for all components in a solution containing the following. 0.350 Kg of water, 5.4 moles of ammonia an
Alina [70]

Answer:

  • % Water = 54.96%
  • % Ammonia = 0.14%
  • % Cobalt (II) Nitrate = 30.62%

Explanation:

To calculate mass percent, first we need to <u>calculate the total mass of the mixture</u>:

  • Mass Water ⇒ 0.350 kg Water = 350 g water
  • Mass Ammonia⇒We use ammonia's molar mass⇒5.4 mol * 17 g/mol =  91.8 g
  • Mass cobalt (II) nitrate ⇒ 195.0 g

Total Mass = Mass Water + Mass Ammonia + Mass Cobalt Nitrate

  • Total Mass = 350 g+ 91.8 g+ 195 g = 636.8 g

To calculate each component's mass percent, we divide its mass by the total mass and multiply by 100:

  • % Water ⇒ 350/636.8 * 100% = 54.96%
  • % Ammonia ⇒ 91.8/636.8 * 100% = 0.14%
  • % Cobalt (II) Nitrate ⇒ 195/636.8 * 100% = 30.62%
