Answer:
A. 28 years
Explanation:
Applying,
R = R'(2ᵃ/ⁿ).............. Equation 1
Where R = Original sample, R' = Sample left after decay, a = Total time taken to decay, n = half life.
From the question,
Given: R = 12 g, R' = 6 g, a = 28 years.
Substitute into equation 1 and solve for n
12 = 6(2²⁸/ⁿ)
12/6 = 2²⁸/ⁿ
2²⁸/ⁿ = 2
Equation the base,
28/n = 1
n = 28 years.
Hence the half-life is 28 years
16 and 6
Explanation:
the top number will be 16 and the bottom number will be 6
Answer:
<em><u>spontaneous composition</u></em> is the ingnition
of the substance due to the repid oxidation of its on material.
There is no requirement of heat of external sources.
<em><u>Rapid composition</u></em> on the other hand release large amount of heat and light energy.
Explosion and the firecracker is the best example of Rapid composition.
