<h2>I hope this help you. Mark me as brainliest and rate please</h2>

Explanation:

the terms strong and weak as applied to acids. As a part of this it defines and explains what is meant by pH, Ka and pKa.

It is important that you don't confuse the words strong and weak with the terms concentrated and dilute.

As you will see below, the strength of an acid is related to the proportion of it which has reacted with water to produce ions. The concentration tells you about how much of the original acid is dissolved in the solution.

It is perfectly possible to have a concentrated solution of a weak acid, or a dilute solution of a strong acid.

a radioisotope has a half life of three hours how much of a 120g sample remains after 9 hours. what will the g amount be after 3

aksik [14]

$\huge\boxed{♔︎Answer♔︎}$

60g after 3 hours, 30g after 6 hours and 15g after 9 hours

Explanation:

Weight of the radioactive sample = 120g

half life time period = 3 hours

(a) The weight of sample after 3 hours

$\textsf{ No. of half lives} = \sf \cancel\frac{3}{3} = 1$

The fraction of sample left

$\sf { \frac{1}{2} }^{1} = \frac{1}{2}$

Mass of the sample left

$\sf \frac{1}{2} \times 120 = \cancel\frac{120}{2} = 60g$

60g of sample is left after 3 hours

(b) The weight of sample after 6 hours

$\textsf{ No. of half lives} = \sf \cancel\frac{6}{3} = 2$

The fraction of the sample left

$\sf { \frac{1}{2} }^{2} = \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{2} = \frac{1}{4}$

Mass of the sample left

$\sf \frac{1}{4} \times 120 = \cancel\frac{120}{4} = 30g$

30g of sample is left after 6 hours

$\textsf {No. of half lives} = \sf \cancel\frac{9}{3} = 3$

The fraction of sample left

$\sf { \frac{1}{2} }^{3} = \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{2} = \frac{1}{8}$

Mass of sample left

$\sf \frac{1}{8} \times 120 = \cancel \frac{120}{8} = 15g$

15g of sample is left after 9 hours.

What happens if you cool the crystallization solution in a container of ice that is too big?

mrs_skeptik [129]

Crystallization is a physical change from liquid form to solid form. It is the opposite of melting. This is done by creating a supersaturated solution. You add more solute exceeding its capacity and heat so that all will dissolve. Then, when you cool it down with an aid of the ice, solid crystals will eventually form. The bigger the container the ice, the faster is the rate of crystallization and the bigger the solid crystals would be.
