The  number of  years  required  for 1/4  cobalt-60  to remain   after   decay  is calculated  as follows

  after  one  half life  1/2 of the original  mass isotope  remains

after  another half life 1/4  mass  of  original  mass  remains

therefore  if one  half  life is  5.3   years  then  the  years required

= 2  x 5.3years =  10.6   years

How many atoms are in the formula (NH4)2CO3? Please help and provide explanation!
nevsk [136]

Answer:

28

Explanation:

28 is correct. (NH4)2 is equal to 10 atoms. (8 H and 2 N ) CO3 is equal to 4 atoms. (1 C and 3 O) That's 14 atoms. But it's two molecules of this. So you just multiply by the number of molecules (2), and you get 28.

Compare the appearance and pH of the unfiltered and filtered polluted water. What conclusion can be made based on these observat
Goryan [66]

Answer:

The unfiltered polluted water is not clear and is yellowish in color. The filtered polluted water is clear with a little bit of yellow color. The pH readings are beyond the range in which organisms can grow. Based on these observations, I can conclude that even though water may look clean, it could actually not be clean or it can still be harmful to living things.

Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

3

Explanation:

There are three different elements in given chemical equation. These elements are hydrogen, oxygen and carbon.

Chemical equation:

2CH₄ + 4O₂       →       2CO₂ + 4H₂O

This equation shows the burning of methane. When methane burns in the presence of oxygen it produced water and carbondioxide.

We can see that all the reactant and product are made up of only three elements carbon, hydrogen and oxygen.

There are two reactant and two products in given reaction.

This reaction also follow the law of conservation of mass.

We can see that there are two carbon eight hydrogen and eight oxygen  atoms on both side of equation.

This law was given by French chemist  Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.
