It requires more energy to boil an substance than to melt it (with special exceptions). When something is boiled you are furthering the distance between the already stretched out molecules which will require more energy to do so, also in most cases you will be creating a vapor from boiling which has a high kinetic energy value.
It seems like the weather made the clothes dry less quickly
Your answer is the element of S I think.
An original sample of K-40 has a mass of 25.00 grams.
After 3.9 m 109 years, 3.125 grams of the original sample remains unchanged.
What is the half-life of K-40?
First step is to determine the remaining decimal amount.
3.125 grams /25.00 grams = 0.125
Second step is to determine the number of half lives.
(1/2)^n = 0.125
N log (1/2) = log 0.125
N = 3 years
