The radioisotope phosphorus-32 is used in tracers for measuring phosphorus uptake by plants. The half-life of phosphorus-32 is 1
Harman [31]

Answer:

54 days

Explanation:

We have to use the formula;

0.693/t1/2 =2.303/t log Ao/A

Where;

t1/2= half-life of phosphorus-32= 14.3 days

t= time taken for the activity to fall to 7.34% of its original value

Ao=initial activity of phosphorus-32

A= activity of phosphorus-32 after a time t

Note that;

A=0.0734Ao (the activity of the sample decreased to 7.34% of the activity of the original sample)

Substituting values;

0.693/14.3 = 2.303/t log Ao/0.0734Ao

0.693/14.3 = 2.303/t log 1/0.0734

0.693/14.3 = 2.6/t

0.048=2.6/t

t= 2.6/0.048

t= 54 days

Does anyone know how to do this???
Bond [772]
Simply look at the periodic table and fill in what you know based on the table

The number of protons = atomic number
The number of electrons, Which is the same as the atomic number for atoms.

The number of valence electrons that is given by the group that the element is in, the top number of each column in the periodic table.

If you need to extract a 50 ml aqueous solution with 50 ml of dichloromethane, what is the minimum size of a separatory funnel y
tatuchka [14]

The dichloromethane (DCM) has less density than water and also the polarity of water is much more than DCM. So the mixture of water and dichloromethane will always be a heterogeneous mixture. In the mixture dichloromethane will be always up of the water layer. The volume of the separatory funnel which contains the mixture of DCM and water must have to be more than the total volume of the liquids thus the volume of the funnel will be more than (50+50) = 100mL.

The caution have to consider during the separation are-

1. The separatory funnel have to shake well with lid and have to settle down for some times until the two liquid separated.

2. The lid should be open very slowly as the vapor pressure of DCM is more and it will float on the water.

3. After this the stopcock should be opened and slowly the water will come out first followed by DCM.
