The half-life of Th-232 is 1.405 × 10¹⁰ years
Time elapsed = 2.8 x 10⁹ years
Equation of radioactive decay:
A = A₀ = (1/2)^ t/t₁/₂
Thus, the percentage of thorium-232 in the rock that was dated at 2.8 billions year = 87.1%
Answer:
219.95 °C
Explanation:
Given data:
Volume of gas = 9.71 L
Initial pressure = 209 torr (209/760 = 0.275 atm)
Initial temperature = 10.1 °C (10.1 +273 = 283.1 K)
Final temperature = ?
Final pressure = 364 torr (364/760 =0.479 atm)
Solution:
According to Gay-Lussac Law,
The pressure of given amount of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant volume and number of moles.
Mathematical relationship:
P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂
Now we will put the values in formula:
0.275 atm / 283.1 K = 0.479 atm/T₂
T₂ = 0.479 atm × 283.1 K/ 0.275 atm
T₂ = 135.6 atm. K /0.275 atm
T₂ = 493.1 K
Kelvin to °C:
493.1 K - 273.15 = 219.95 °C
Answer:
I think it's B. The ability of water molecules to adhere to the surfaces of objects
None because Covalent compounds don’t conduct electricity because they are formed between the non metal atoms by sharing of electrons. The Covalent compounds haves no free electrons and also no ions and hence they do not conduct electricity. That is why they do not conduct electricity.
Answer:
The configuration of the atom would be 2-8-2.
Explanation:
Any atom of an element combines with other element to complete its octet and become stable.
The electron configuration of the given atom is 2-8-6. That means the atom has 6 electrons in its outermost shell. To become stable the atom should have 8 electrons in its outermost shell. The given atom has 6 electrons so it either lose 6 electrons or gain 2 electrons to complete its octet.
But we know the atom having 5,6,7 electrons in its outermost shell they do not lose, they gain either 3 or 2 or 1 electrons to complete its octet.
So we say that atom with the electron configuration 2-8-6 bond with the atom having electron configuration 2-8-2.
