<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>

Using the periodic table, choose the more reactive nonmetal.<br> Br or As
vladimir2022 [97]
Br
First of all, As is a metalloid, not a nonmetal. Second of all, as the rows get higher on the periodic table, the elements are more reactive. As you move right on the periodic table, the elements become more reactive.

Starting with acetylene and bromoethane, show how you would use reagents from the table to synthesize 3-hexanone.
Jobisdone [24]

solution:

A = 192 x (1/2) ^ (15/5) = 192 x (1/2) ^3 = 192 x 1/8 = 24 mg

 Starting by hitting acetylene with NaNH2 to deprotonate, this C-- will attack the C connected to the Br Sn2 style to lengthen the chain by two carbons.  

Do this same thing again with the other CH of the acetylene and another bromoethaneto get a six carbon chain, namely, 3-hexyne.  

Now, reduce the alkyne to an alkene via H2/Pd/C, and that gives 3-hexene.
