What is the charge on an ion that has an atomic number of 16 and contains 14e-?
lora16 [44]
The answer would be 2+ since the atomic number represents how many protons are in the element. In this case, there are 16 protons, but only 14 electrons, which means there are an additional 2 protons, hence the 2+ charge on the ion.

34. Explain how dimensional analysis is used to solve<br> problems.
alisha [4.7K]

Answer: By understanding conversion factors and how they are related to each other

Explanation:

Dimensional Analysis is a step by step approach to solving problems in Physics, Chemistry , and Mathematics. It involves having a clear knowledge and understanding to be able to convert a given unit to another in the same dimension using  conversion factors and knowing how they are related to each other.

For instance, In Chemistry, we want to Convert 120mL to L.(note that ml stands for millilitres and ;L stands for litres)

Or first approach will be to write out the conversion factor related to our problem which is

1000ml =1L

such that 120ml = (we cross multiply))

giving us  120ml x 1L/1000ml =0.12L

This same process is applied to convert any type of dimensional analysis problems be it physics or mathematics.

If the half-life of a radioactive element is 4 days, how long will it take for three- fourths of a sample of the element to deca
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

\boxed{\text{8 da}}

Explanation:

The question will be easier to solve if we interpret it as, " How long will it take until one-fourth of a sample of the element remains,?"

The half-life of the element is the time it takes for half of it to decay.  

After one half-life, half (50 %) of the original amount will remain.  

After a second half-life, half of that amount (25 %) will remain, and so on.  

We can construct a table as follows:

\begin{array}{cccl}\textbf{No. of} & & \textbf{Fraction} & \\\textbf{half-lives} & \textbf{t/da} & \textbf{remaining} & \\1 & 4 & \dfrac{1}{2} & \\\\2 & 8 & \dfrac{1}{4}& \\\\3 & 12 & \dfrac{1}{8}& \\\end{array}

\text{We see that 8 da is two half-lives, and the fraction of the element remaining is $\frac{1}{4}$.}\\\text{It takes $\boxed{\textbf{8 da}}$ for three-fourths of the element to decay}
