What is the half life of a radioisotope if you started with 1 gram and 0.250 grams is left over after 6 days?

Chemistry

Answer:

3 DAYS

Explanation:

Half-life is the time required for a quantity of a radioisotope to reduce to half its initial value. It is represented as t1/2

In the question given,

t1/2 = 3 days

Since 1 gram of the radioisotope divides to half and give 0.5 grams = t1/2

Subsequently division yields;

1gram = 0.5 gram in 3 days

0.5 gram = 0.250 grams = 3 days

This is so because after 6 days, 0.250 gram of the radioisotope is remaining.

Robert Hooke: He was the first scientist to called cells to tiny box-like cavities he saw in cork and illustrated as cells.

A. Leeuwenhoek: he was a microscopist and microbiologist who used microscopes and observed many other living cells. He called animalcules to these single-cell living organisms later used to prove that cells are the fundamental unit of life.

Schwann and Schleiden:  They presented the theory that suggested that the cells are basic building blocks of all living things.

The pKb of the base cyclohexamine, C6H11NH2, is 3.36. What is the pKa of the conjugate acid, C6H11NH3
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

10.64

Explanation:

Let's consider the basic reaction of cyclohexamine, C₆H₁₁NH₂.

C₆H₁₁NH₂(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ C₆H₁₁NH₃⁺(aq) + OH⁻     pKb = 3.36

C₆H₁₁NH₃⁺ is its conjugate acid, since it donates H⁺ to form C₆H₁₁NH₂. C₆H₁₁NH₃⁺ acid reaction is as follows:

C₆H₁₁NH₃⁺(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ C₆H₁₁NH₂(aq) + H₃O⁺(aq)   pKa

We can find the pKa of C₆H₁₁NH₃⁺ using the following expression.

pKa + pKb = 14.00

pKa = 14.00 - pKb = 14.00 - 3.36 = 10.64
