A sample contains 16. 75 g of the radioisotope U-236 and 50. 25 g of its daughter isotope, Th-232. How long did it take for deca
garri49 [273]

The time taken for the isotope to decay is 46 million years.

We'll begin by calculating the number of half-lives that has elapsed. This can be obtained as follow:

  • Original amount (N₀) = 50.25 g
  • Amount remaining (N) = 16.75
  • Number of half-lives (n) =?

2ⁿ = N₀ / N

2ⁿ = N₀ / N

2ⁿ = 50.25 / 16.75

2ⁿ = 3

Take the log of both side

Log 2ⁿ = 3

nLog 2 = Log 3

Divide both side by log 2

n = Log 3 / Log 2

n = 2

Finally, we shall determine the time.

  • Half-life (t½) = 23 million years
  • Number of half-lives (n) = 2
  • Time (t) =?

t = n × t½

t = 2  × 23

t = 46 million years

Answer the following questions for H2CrO4:
Sholpan [36]

If this molecule is one half of a buffer, then the formula of the second half of the buffer is M2CrO4 where M is a univalent metal.

<h3>What is a strong acid?</h3>

A weak acid is one that is able to ionize completely in solution. The acid called chromic acid H2CrO4 is not  able to ionize completely in solution.

We know that a buffer is composed of a weak acid and its salt or a weak base and its salt hence if the acid H2CrO4 is present in a buffer then the other half must be  salt of the acid.

If this molecule is one half of a buffer, then the formula of the second half of the buffer is M2CrO4 where M is a univalent metal.

Find the quantinum numbers n,m,l,s for the last of potassium layer pleasee help explain correctly all
Fantom [35]

Answer:

Quantum numbers of the outermost electron in potassium:

  • n = 4.
  • l  = 1.
  • m_l = 0.
  • Either m_s = 1/2.

Explanation:

Refer to the electron configuration of a potassium atom. The outermost electron in a ground-state potassium atom is in the 4s orbital (fourth s orbital.)

The quantum number n (the principal quantum number) specifies the main energy shell of an electron. This electron is in the fourth main energy shell (as seen in the number four in the orbital.) Hence, n = 4 for this electron.

The quantum number l (the angular momentum quantum number) specifies the shape (s, p, d, etc.) of an electron. l = 1 for s\! orbitals (such as the one that contains this electron.

Quantum numbers n and l specify the shape of an orbital. On the other hand, the magnetic quantum number m_l specifies the orientation of these orbitals in space.

However, s orbitals are spherical. Regardless of the value of n, the only possible m_l value for electrons in s\! orbitals is m_l = 0.

The spin quantum number m_s distinguishes between the two electrons in an orbital. The two possible values of m_s \! are (+1/2) and (-1/2). Typically, the first electron in an orbital is assigned an upward (\uparrow) spin, which corresponds to m_s = (+1/2).

3. How many atoms in 3.91 moles of sodium?
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

The formula for sodium is Na. It does not form a molecule in some way.

1 mol Na = 6.02*10^23 atoms

3.91 mol = x                                    Cross multiply

x = 3.91 * 6.02 * 10^23

x = 23.65 * 10^23

x = 2.365 * 10^24

Scientific notation is always expressed as a number 1 ≤ x < 10
