The radioactive decay follows first order kinetics

The integrated rate law expression for first order rate is

ln(A / At) = kt

Where A= initial concentration

At=concentration at time "t"

t = time

K= rate constant

ln(50 / 0.0488) = k X 38

Therefore

K = 0.1824 day-1

The relation between rate constant and half life is

So half life = 0.693 / 0.1824 = 3.8 days

So isotope must be Radon-222

A container is filled with a mixture of gases:
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

The partial pressure of chlorine gas in the mixture is 1.55 atm.

Explanation:

Partial pressure of oxygen gas = p_1=1.0 atm

Partial pressure of nitrogen gas = p_2=0.75 atm

Partial pressure of chlorine gas = p_3=?

Total pressure of the mixture of gases = P = 3.30 atm

Using Dalton's law of partial pressure:

P=p_1+p_2+p_3

3.30 atm=1.0 atm+ 0.75 atm+p_3

p_3=3.30atm - (1.0 atm+ 0.75 atm)=1.55 atm

The partial pressure of chlorine gas in the mixture is 1.55 atm.

GaryK [48]

Answer:

The defect of vision suffered by the person is Myopia

Explanation:

The person can't see farther objects but is able to read a book which is placed closely to the eyes, using these observations the person is suffering from MYOPIA(nearsightedness) in which observer see close objects clearly but farther objects appear blurred.

The light entering the eye isn't correctly bent, the eyeball becomes big , or the eye lens become too converging, which converges the light ray in front of the cornea

This defect can be cured by using concave lenses.
