Answer;

2 half lives

Explanation;

-Half life is the time taken by a radioactive isotope to decay to half of the original amount.

-For example; if the original mass is 100% the time it takes to decay to 50% is the half life.

-Therefore, in our case; for the element to decay from 1 whole to a half of the element, is one half life, then decaying from a half to one-fourth of the element will be another half life, which means there are two half lives for an element to decay to one-fourth of the element.

Depending on the reaction, we could monitor the progress towards equilibrium by observing __________.
Alex Ar [27]

Depending on the reaction, we could monitor the progress towards equilibrium by observing the concentration of the reactant and the product are equal with time.

<h3>What is equilibrium?</h3>

Equilibrium is a stage of reaction in which the rate of forwarding reaction is equal to the rate of backward reaction and equilibrium is stable at the reversible state of mode.

The concentration of reactant and product must also be equal or the same as the time then only it can be an equilibrium reaction.

Therefore equilibrium depends on the reaction, the concentration of the reactant and the product are equal with time.

The molar mass of hydrogen molecules is 2g/mol and the molar mass of oxygen molecules is 32g/mol. What is the ratio of the avera
Alona [7]

Answer:

1

Explanation:

For an ideal gas, the average kinetic energy is given by:

Ek = (3/2)*n*R*T

Where n is the number of moles, R is the gas constant (8.31 J/mol*K), and T the temperature. The gases have the same number of moles, and the same temperature, so they will have the same average kinetic energy:

Ek = (3/2)*1*8.31*300

Ek =3739.5 J

So, the ratio between then is 1.
