Saccharides are carbohydrates, molecules containing Carbon (C), Hydrogen (H), and Oxygen (O). "Saccharo" means sugar in Greek. Also Greek, "mono" means one, "di" means two, and "poly" means many.
A sugar molecule is based upon a ring of carbons with H's and OH's attached. One sugar molecule alone is a monosacchararide, like glucose and fructose. Two sugar molecules bonded together covalently is a disaccharide, like lactose (milk sugar) and sucrose (table sugar). Many sugar molecules (upwards of hundreds or thousands) bonded together covalently is a polysaccharide. Examples are glycogen (animal starch) and cellulose (plant starch).

Lt takes 4 hr 39 min for a 2.00-mg sample of radium-230 to decay to 0.25 mg. what is the half-life of radium-230?
Rufina [12.5K]
Radioactive decay => C = Co { e ^ (- kt) |

Data:

Co = 2.00 mg
C = 0.25 mg
t = 4 hr 39 min

Time conversion: 4 hr 39 min = 4.65 hr

1) Replace the data in the equation to find k

C = Co { e ^ (-kt) } => C / Co = e ^ (-kt) => -kt = ln { C / Co} => kt = ln {Co / C}

=> k = ln {Co / C} / t =  ln {2.00mg / 0.25mg} / 4.65 hr = 0.44719

2) Use C / Co  = 1/2 to find the hallf-life

C / Co = e ^ (-kt) => -kt = ln (C / Co)

=> -kt = ln (1/2) => kt = ln(2) => t = ln (2) / k

t = ln(2) / 0.44719 = 1.55 hr.

Answer: 1.55 hr
