What is the half-life of sodium-25 if 1.00 gram of a 16.00-gram sample of sodium-25 remains unchanged after 237 seconds?

1 answer:

8 0

Given,
1 gram remain out of 16 grams after 237 seconds.

So,
1g -> 2g -> 4g -> 8g -> 16g
So, 4 half lives have taken palce.

So,
we divide 237 by 4 and we get our answer.

So,
234 / 4 = 59.25 ≈ 59.3

So, the answer is (2) 59.3 seconds

stiv31 [10]

Answer:

36290 min = 604.8 hr.

Explanation:

Knowing that:

1 lbs = 453.59237 grams.

∴ 2 lbs = 907.18474 grams.

Using cross multiplication:

500 mg of iron oxide dissolved → 20 minutes.

907184.74 mg of iron oxide dissolved → ??? minutes.

∴ The time needed to dissolve 2 lbs of iron oxide = (907184.74 mg)(20 min)/(500 mg) = 36290 min = 604.8 hr.
