In a college of exactly 2760 students, exactly 65 % are male. What is the number of female students? Express your answer as an i
1 answer:
Total number of students (male and female) in the college=2760. Total number of students including both male and female represents 100% (percentage) of students which is equal to 2760 number.
Number of male students is 65% (percentage) which is equal to = 1794. So, total number of female students are (100-65)%=35% (percentage) which is equal to
=966 numbers.

Answer: 2948
Explanation:
Half life is the amount of time taken by a radioactive material to decay to half of its original value.
Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:
where,
k = rate constant =
t = age of sample = ?
a = let initial amount of the reactant = 100
a - x = amount left after decay process =
Thus the fossil is 2948 years old.
That will make a gold-202 nucleus.
<h3>Explanation</h3>Refer to a periodic table. The atomic number of mercury Hg is 80.
Step One: Bombard the with a neutron
. The neutron will add 1 to the mass number 202 of
. However, the atomic number will stay the same.
- New mass number: 202 + 1 = 203.
- Atomic number is still 80.
.
Double check the equation:
- Sum of mass number on the left-hand side = 202 + 1 = 203 = Sum of mass number on the right-hand side.
- Sum of atomic number on the left-hand side = 80 = Sum of atomic number on the right-hand side.
Step Two: The nucleus loses a proton
. Both the mass number 203 and the atomic number will decrease by 1.
- New mass number: 203 - 1 = 202.
- New atomic number: 80 - 1 = 79.
Refer to a periodic table. What's the element with atomic number 79? Gold Au.
.
Double check the equation:
- Sum of mass number on the left-hand side = 203 = 202 + 1 = Sum of mass number on the right-hand side.
- Sum of atomic number on the left-hand side = 80 = 79 + 1 = Sum of atomic number on the right-hand side.
A gold-202 nucleus is formed.
