The general equation for radioactive decay is;
N = N₀e^(-λt)
x - decay constant (λ) - rate of decay
t- time
N - amount remaining after t days , since we are calculating the half life, amount of time it takes for the substance to to be half its original value, its N₀/2
N₀ - amount initially present
substituting the values
N₀/2 = N₀e^(-0.081t)
0.5 = e^(-0.081t)
ln (0.5) = -0.081t
-0.693 = -0.081t
t = 0.693 / 0.081
= 8.55
half life of substance is 8.55 days
Answer:
0.4444 g/cm³ ≅ 0.44 g/cm³ (2 significant figures).
Explanation:
<em>d = m/V,</em>
where, d is the density of the material (g/cm³).
m is the mass of the material (m = 28 g).
V is the volume of the material (V = 63.0 cm³).
<em>∴ d = m/V </em>= (28 g)/(63.0 cm³) = <em>0.4444 g/cm³ ≅ 0.44 g/cm³ (2 significant figures).</em>
Answer:
The elements in each group have the same number of electrons in the outer orbital. Those outer electrons are also called valence electrons.
Explanation:
Because it relates to more than one branch of knowledge. It combines more than one academic disiplines.
