<span>At 20g with half-life of 5 minutes there would be 10g leftover in 5 minutes. In 10 mins, there would be 5g leftover. Half-life is actually what it says, it refers to time it takes for half of the active elements, etc to break down at which time the potency of the "product" is half as strong. This term is used mainly with radioactive items or medicines.</span>

Question 2Classify the following organic structures:CH3OCH3CH2CH2CHCH2CH3CH3NHCH3CH3CH(OH)CH₂CH3
Naily [24]

Within the options, we have four organic compounds. Let's see what the skeletal structure of the compounds is in order to identify them better:

The first compound CH3OCH3 has two methyl groups linked by a carbon atom, this type of compound is called an Ether

The second compound has a double bond, it is badly written but it seems that is an alkene.

The third compound has two methyl groups linked by nitrogen atoms, therefore will be an amine.

The last compound has a hydroxyl group, therefore it is an alcohol

Answer:

CH3OCH3 Ether

CH2CH2CHCH2CH3 Alkene

CH3NHCH3 Amine

CH3CH(OH)CH₂CH3 Alcohol
