From the calculations, the half life of the material is 6.5 days.
<h3>What is radioactivity?</h3>
The term radioactivity has to do with the spontaneous disintegration of a specie.
Uisng the formula;
N=Noe^-kt
N= amount at time t = 0.135 Ci or 4.995 ×10^9 Bq
No = amount initially present = 1.75 x 10^12 Bq
k = rate constant = ?
t = time taken = 55 days
Hence;
4.995 ×10^9 = 1.75 x 10^12e^-55k
4.995 ×10^9/1.75 x 10^12 = e^-55k
2.85 * 10^-3 = e^-55k
ln2.85 * 10^-3 = -55k
k = ln2.85 * 10^-3/-55
k = 0.1066 day-1
Half life = 0.693/ 0.1066 day-1
= 6.5 days

Answer:
The value of the partial pressure of the oxygen 
= 690 torr
Explanation:
Total pressure of the mixture of gases = 736 torr
The partial pressure of water vapor = 46 torr
From the law of pressure we know that
Total pressure = The partial pressure of water vapor + The partial pressure of oxygen 
Put the values of pressures in above equation we get,
⇒ 736 = 46 +
⇒ = 736 - 46
⇒ = 690 torr
This is the value of the partial pressure of the oxygen.
Answer:
Chadwick-he discovered the neutron. He discovered this by demonstrating a neutral particle with a mass the same as a proton through a reaction between gramma Ray's and a wax sample.
Rutherford-he discovered the concept of radioactive half-life, the radioactive element radon, and named alpha and beta radiation.
j.j.Thompson discovered that atoms where made up of smaller components. This had major effects for the field of physics.
