Helium (He) has the lowest melting point of <span>-272.2 °C.</span>
Answer:
to VSEPR theory, the shape of a molecule is related to the organization of the central atom's valence shell electrons. The valence shell electrons are all negatively charged and therefore are constantly repelling each other. This repulsion is what gives a molecule its three-dimensional shape.
Waters boiling point is 100°C and 212°F
Answer:
16.6 mg
Explanation:
Step 1: Calculate the rate constant (k) for Iodine-131 decay
We know the half-life is t1/2 = 8.04 day. We can calculate the rate constant using the following expression.
k = ln2 / t1/2 = ln2 / 8.04 day = 0.0862 day⁻¹
Step 2: Calculate the mass of iodine after 8.52 days
Iodine-131 decays following first-order kinetics. Given the initial mass (I₀ = 34.7 mg) and the time elapsed (t = 8.52 day), we can calculate the mass of iodine-131 using the following expression.
ln I = ln I₀ - k × t
ln I = ln 34.7 - 0.0862 day⁻¹ × 8.52 day
I = 16.6 mg
