The​ half-life of a certain tranquilizer in the bloodstream is 5050 hours. how long will it take for the drug to decay to 8686​%

of the original​ dosage? use the exponential decay​ model, upper a equals upper a 0 e superscript kta=a0ekt​, to solve.

Using the exponential decay model; we calculate "k"
We know that "A" is half of A0
A = A0 e^(k× 5050)
A/A0 = e^(5050k)
0.5 = e^(5055k)
In (0.5) = 5055k 
-0.69315 = 5055k
 k = -0.0001371
To calculate how long it will take to decay to 86% of the original mass
0.86 = e^(-0.0001371t)
In (0.86) = -0.0001371t
-0.150823 = -0.0001371 t
 t = 1100 hours

Answer:

Is the source an authority on the subject?

Explanation:

To figure out which source is accurate, you want to find out the source's authority on the subject. For  example, if you wanted to learn how to play the piano, you wouldn't go to a dance teacher, you would go to someone who knows how to play the piano. The person who knows how to play the piano has more authority to teach the piano than a dance teacher.

The number of nucleons in an atom is the atom's (atomic, mass) number.
ELEN [110]
The number of neutrons in an atom is the number of particles present in its nucleus.
The atomic number is the number of protons whereas the mass number is the number of protons and number of neutrons together
This implies that the number of neutrons is the atom's mass number

"how many molecules of carbon dioxide exit your lungs when you exhale 5.00 × 10−2 mol of carbon dioxide, co2?"
IrinaVladis [17]
We are going to use Avogadro's constant to calculate how many molecules of

carbons dioxide exist in lungs:

when 1 mole of CO2 has 6.02 x 10^23 molecules, so how many molecules in

CO2 when the number of moles is 5 x 10^-2

number of molecules = moles of CO2 * Avogadro's number

                                     = 5 x 10^-2  * 6.02 x 10^23

                                     = 3 x 10^22 molecules 

∴ There are 3 x 10^22 molecules in CO2 exist in lungs
