How do we know that stars explode in our galaxy?

We know that it is a certainty based on things such as the size, mass, brightness, etc. They can determine to within a relative level of accuracy the age. Of course they can be off by millions of years, but that’s pretty precise for a 10–20 billion year time period for the life of a star. BUT we absolutely cannot predict exactly when it will explode and we see supernovas in other galaxies, but the last one in the Milky Way that we observed was in the 1600s.

If you start with 100 grams of hydrogen-3, how many grams will you have after 24.6 years?
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

The mass left after 24.6 years is 25.0563 grams

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The mass of the hydrogen-3 = 100 grams

The half life of hydrogen-3 which is also known as = 12.32 years

The formula for calculating half-life is given as follows;

N(t) = N_0 \times \left (\dfrac{1}{2} \right )^{\dfrac{t}{t_{\frac{1}{2} }} }

Where;

N(t) = The mass left after t years

N₀ =  The initial mass of the hydrogen-3 = 100 g

t = Time duration of the decay = 24.6 years

t_{\frac{1}{2} } = Half-life = 12.32 years

N(24.6) = 100 \times \left (\dfrac{1}{2} \right )^{\dfrac{24.6}{12.32}} } = 25.0563

The mass left after 24.6 years = 25.0563 grams.

If Argon has a mass number of 40 and an atomic number of 18, how many electrons does a
Tanya [424]
C) 22 because the mass of a neutron is 1 amu and a proton is also 1 amu, so 40-18=22

What is the molecular formula of a compound with the empirical formula HSO4 and a formula mass of 194.13 amu?
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

Molecular formula =  H₂S₂O₈

Explanation:

Given data:

Empirical formula = HSO₄

Formula mass = 194.13 amu

Molecular mass = ?

Solution:

Molecular formula = n × empirical formula

n = molar mass of the compound / empirical formula mass

Empirical formula mass = 1.008 + 32.065 + 16× 4

Empirical formula mass = 97.073

n = 194.13 / 97.073

n= 2

Molecular formula = n × empirical formula

Molecular formula = 2  (HSO₄)

Molecular formula =  H₂S₂O₈
