This question is missing the part that actually asks the question. The questions that are asked are as follows:
(a) How much of a 1.00 mg sample of americium remains after 4 day? Express your answer using 2 significant figures.
(b) How much of a 1.00 mg sample of iodine remains after 4 days? Express your answer using 3 significant figures.
We can use the equation for a first order rate law to find the amount of material remaining after 4 days:
[A] = [A]₀e^(-kt)
[A]₀ = initial amount
k = rate constant
t = time
[A] = amount of material at time, t.
(a) For americium we begin with 1.00 mg of sample and must convert time to units of years, as our rate constant, k, is in units of yr⁻¹.
4 days x 1 year/365 days = 0.0110
A = (1.00)e^((-1.6x10^-3)(0.0110))
A = 1.0 mg
The decay of americium is so slow that no noticeable change occurs over 4 days.
(b) We can simply plug in the information of iodine-125 and solve for A:
A = (1.00)e^(-0.011 x 4)
A = 0.957 mg
Iodine-125 decays at a much faster rate than americium and after 4 days there will be a significant loss of mass.

Answer:
The answer is: (a) positive; (b) negative.
Explanation:
The change in enthalpy (ΔH) of a reaction is the amount of energy absorbed or released during a chemical reaction carried out at constant pressure.
a) In an endothermic chemical reaction, heat energy is absorbed by the system from the surrounding. Therefore, the sign of enthalpy change for an endothermic process is positive, ΔH= positive.
b) In an exothermic chemical reaction, heat energy is released by the system into the surrounding. Therefore, the sign of enthalpy change for an exothermic process is negative, ΔH= negative.
Answer:
6960 J/kg°C
Explanation:
specific heat= mass×specific heat capacity×increase in temperature
specific heat= 0.240×1450×20= 6960 J/kg°C
hope it helps!
Your question has been heard loud and clear.
Both scientific laws and scientific theories are not based on hypothesis.
Because , scientific laws are proven and so they are real not hypothetical.
Whereas scientifc theories can be hypothetical.
