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

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.

what is Calcite's Solubility, I barely know what solubility mean let alone what it has to do with Calcite.
Ivahew [28]

Calcite can be either dissolved by groundwater or precipitated by groundwater, depending on several factors including the water temperature, pH, and dissolved ion concentrations. Although calcite is fairly insoluble in cold water, acidity can cause dissolution of calcite and release of carbon dioxide gas.

How many protons z and how many neutrons n are there in a nucleus of the most common isotope of silicon, 2814si?
zheka24 [161]
The 28 is the sum of the protons and neutrons in the element silicon.
ALL silicon atoms have 14 protons in the nucleus, so we can turn this into an equation:
#protons + #neutrons = 28
14 + #neutrons = 28
#neutrons = 14
#protons = 14

Somebody please help me!!
mariarad [96]

Answer:

The given isotope is Br 80

If 35 protons present then its atomic number is 35

Mass number is 80 so its meutrons are 45 because proton+ neutron = mass number

Its electron are 36 because of negative one charge
