T is amount after time t 
<span>Ao is initial amount </span>
<span>t is time </span>
<span>HL is half life </span>

<span>log (At) = log [ Ao x (1/2)^(t/HL) ] </span>
<span>log (At) = log Ao + log (1/2)^(t/HL) </span>
<span>log (At) = log Ao + (t/HL) x log (1/2) </span>

<span>( log At - log Ao) / log (1/2) = t / HL </span>
<span>log (At/Ao) / log (1/2) = t / HL </span>

<span>HL = t / [( log (At / Ao)) / log (1/2) ] </span>

<span>HL = 14.4 s / [ ( log (12.5 / 50) / log (1/2) ] </span>

<span>HL = 14.4 s / 2 = 7.2 seconds </span>

Addition of 50. J to a 10.0-g sample of a metal will cause the temperature of a metal to rise from 25ºC to 35ºC. The specific he
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

b) C = 0.50 J/(g°C)

Explanation:

  • Q = mCΔT

∴ Q = 50 J

∴ m = 10.0 g

∴ ΔT = 35 - 25 = 10 °C

specific heat (C) :

⇒ C = Q / mΔT

⇒ C = 50 J / (10.0 g)(10 °C)

⇒ C = 0.50 J/(g°C)

FIRST ANSWER = BRAINLIEST
STALIN [3.7K]

A_{r} = 24.3

The average atomic mass of X is the <em>weighted average</em> of the atomic masses of its isotopes.  

We multiply the atomic mass of each isotope by a number representing its <em>relative importance</em> (i.e., its % abundance).  

Thus,  

0.790 × 24 u = 18.96 u

0.100 × 25 u =   2.50 u

0.110 × 26 u =    <u>2.86 u</u>  

       TOTAL =  24.3   u

∴ The relative atomic mass of X is 24.3.
