Answer:
Explanation:
you know density and volume fromt he equation you have to caclaute the mass
density = mass / volume
density * volume= mass
0.790*30 = mass
23.7 g= mass
he need to weigh around 23.7 g of acetone
There will be 7.5 g of Be-11 remaining after 28 s.
If 14 s = 1 half-life, 28 s = 2 half-lives.
After the first half-life, ½ of the Be-11 (15 g) will disappear, and 15 g will remain.
After the second half-life, ½ of the 15 g (7.5 g) will disappear, and 7.5 g will remain.
In symbols,
<em>N</em> = <em>N</em>₀(½)^<em>n</em>
where
<em>n</em> = the number of half-lives
<em>N</em>₀ = the original amount
<em>N</em> = the amount remaining after <em>n</em> half-lives

Answer: The net change in the atoms is the conversion of a neutron to a proton, turning Carbon (6 protons) into Nitrogen (7 protons).
Explanation:
Carbon-14, generated from the atmosphere, has 6 protons and 8 neutrons. That's where the 14 comes from, called the mass number, is the sum of protons and neutrons (6+8=14).
Carbon-14 is radioactive and decays by beta decay. That means one of its neutrons spontaneously turns into a proton, an electron, and a neutrino, according to:
After that, the atom has 7 protons and 7 neutrons, maintaining its mass number but changing its atomic number from 6 to 7, turning into Nitrogen.
