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.
Dang that’s crazy.. Goodluck ..
Answer:
Sprinkling of powder on the carom board <u>reduces</u> friction.
We know that when calculating percent yield, we use the equation:
Since the quantities that we are given in the question are equal, we can just directly divide them to find percent yield:
So now we know that the percent yield of the synthesis is 87.27%.
