Answer: 345,000 calories
Explanation:
Calories in food such as candy bars refer to the amount of energy that the food has. Calories are also called Kilocalories because they are the equivalent of 1,000 calories.
If the candy bar contained 345 calories therefore, and 1 Calorie is 1,000 calories, the calories in the candy bar are:
= 345 * 1,000
= 345,000 calories
Answer:
Rubidium Acetate
Explanation:
Rb is Rubidium C2H3O2 is acetate
Answer:
12 mmilligrams of Po-218 was the mass of the original starting material
Explanation:
The half-life of a radioactive material is the time taken for half the amount ofnthe original material present in a radioactive material to decay or disintegrate.
After each half-life, half the original material present at the start remains.
For the radioactive polonium-218 having a half-life of 3.04 minutes, it means that if 1 g is the starting material, after 3.04 minutes, 1/2 g will be remaining; after, 6.08 minutes 1/2 of 1/2 which is 1/4 of the starting material will be remaining; and after 9.12 minutes, 1/2 of 1/4 = 1/8 g will be remaining.
From the question, number of half-lives undergone after 9.12 minutes = 9.12/3.04 = 3 half-lives.
After 3 half-lives, 1/8 of the original material is remaining.
1/8 = 1.50 mg
The original mass of the sample at the start = 1.50 mg × 8 = 12 mg
Therefore, 12 milligrams of Po-218 was the mass of the original starting material.

Answer:
1.49 × 10⁹ years
Explanation:
Step 1: Calculate the rate constant (k) for the nuclear decay of U-235
The decay follows first-order kinetics with a half-life (t1/2) of 703 × 10⁶ years. We can calculate "k" using the following expression.
k = ln2/ t1/2 = ln2 / 703 × 10⁶ y = 9.86 × 10⁻¹⁰ y⁻¹
Step 2: Calculate the time elapsed (t) so that the final amount ([U]) is 23.0% of the initial amount ([U]₀)
For first order kinetics, we will use the following expression.
ln ([U]/[U]₀) = -k × t
ln (0.230[U]₀/[U]₀) = -9.86 × 10⁻¹⁰ y⁻¹ × t
ln 0.230 = -9.86 × 10⁻¹⁰ y⁻¹ × t
t = 1.49 × 10⁹ y
