Answer:
14
Explanation:
mass number = protons + neutrons
Half life is the time taken by a radioactive isotope to decay by half its original mass. In this case, the halflife of the radioactive isotope is 5000 years.
Initially the mass is 100 %; thus the mass that will be left will be given by;
New mass = Original mass × (1/2)^n where n is the number of half lives;
n = 10000/5000 = 2
New mass = 100% ×(1/2)^2
= 100 % × 1/4
= 25%
Therefore; the mass left after 10000 years is 25% or 1/4 of the original mass.

Answer:
d. the conjugate base of the weak acid
Explanation:
The strong base (BOH) is completely dissociated in water:
BOH → B⁺ + OH⁻
The resulting conjugate acid (OH⁻) is a weak acid, so it remains in solution as OH⁻ ions.
By other hand, the weak acid (HA) is only slightly dissociated in water:
HA ⇄ H⁺ + A⁻
The resulting conjugate base (A⁻) is a weak base. Thus, it reacts with H⁺ ions from water to form HA, increasing the concentration of OH⁻ ions in the solution.
Therefore, the resulting solution will have a pH > 7 (basic).
