Covalent bond is the type of bond which involves the sharing of valence electrons between two atoms.
This bond usually arises from the equal attraction of the nuclei of the two atoms for the electrons shared.
Ionic bond, on the other hand, arises due to the transfer of electrons from the valence shell of one atom to the valence shell of the other.
A amplitude = 0.50 m and wave-length = 1.0 m
B amplitude = 0.40 m and wave-length = 2.0 m
C amplitude = 0.60 m and wave-length = 2.0 m
Answser:
3.77 mg of K-40 decayed into Ar-40.
Data:
1) K-40, Ca-40, Ar-40: all three have the same atomic mass
2) 90%<span> of the potassium-40 will decay into calcium-40
3) 10% of the potassium-40 will decay into argon-40.</span>
4) K-40 inside the rock = 0.81 mg
5) Ar-40 trapped = 0.377 mg
Soltuion:
1) 0.377 mg of Ar-40 is the 10% of the mass of the K-40 that decayed
=> x * 10% = 0.377 mg => x * 0.1 = 0.377mg
=> x = 0.377 mg / 0.1 = 3.77 mg
That means that 3.77 mg of K-40 decayed into Ar-40. And this is the answer to the question.
Additionaly, you can analyze the content of all K-40 and Ca-40, to understand better the case.
2) The mass of the K-40 that decayed into Ca-40 is 9 times (ratio 9:1) the amount that decayed into Ar-40 =>
mass of K-40 that decayed into Ca-40 = 9 * 0.377 = 3.393 mg
3) Total amount of K-40 that decayed = amount that decayed into Ar-40 + amount that decayed into Ca-40 = 0.377mg + 3.393mg = 3.77 mg
4) Original amount of K-40 = amount of K-40 that decayed + amount of K-40 present in the rock = 3.77mg + 0.81 mg = 4.58 mg
5) amount of K-40 that decayed into Ar-40 as percent
% = [3.77 mg / 4.58mg] * 100 = 82.31 %.
