t1/2 = ln 2 / λ = 0.693 / λ
Where t1/2 is the half life of the element and λ is decay constant.

32 = 0.693 / λ 
λ   = 0.693 / 32          (1) 

Nt = Nο eΛ(-λt)          (2)

Where Nt is atoms at t time, λ is decay constant and t is the time taken.
t = 1.9 hours = 1.9 x 60 min

From (1) and (2),


Nt = Nο e⁻Λ(0.693/32)*1.9*60
Nt =  0.085Nο 

Percentage = (Nt/Nο) x 100%
                   = (0.085Nο/Nο) x 100%
                   = 8.5%

Hence, Percentage of remaining atoms with the original sample is 8.5%

Why is it impossible to have an undiscovered element that would fit between sodium and magnesuim
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

Sodium has 11 protons and Magnesium has 12. The way that the periodic table is set up doesn't allow for any elements to be in between. The element would have to have 11.5 protons, which is impossible

How many valence electrons do the halogens possess? group of answer choices
jok3333 [9.3K]

The valence electron does the halogens possess are 7

  • Valence electrons are found in the outermost energy level of an atom
  • They are involved in the formation of chemical bonding with other atoms.
  • The halogens elements are found in group 17 on the periodic table
  • The halogens include fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine and astatine.
  • They have seven valence electrons, so they are extremely reactive as they only need one more to fill their outer shell.
  • By octet rule we can say that the electron with 8 outer most shell is full and stable.

Hence the halogens posses 7 valence electron

If metal ions in a solution were reduced, what would you expect to see?
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

Solid metal

Explanation:

The reduced form of metal ions is the metal in elemental state (simple substance). So, if you have a solution with metal ions and they are reduced, you probably will see the deposition of the metal. For example: if you have a solution with sodium ions (Na⁺), and the ions are then reduced, you will see the aparition of a solid phase of metallic sodium (Na(s)), according to the following half-reaction:

Na⁺ + e- → Na(s)

A eraser has a mass of 4g and a volume of 2cm3 what is it’s density
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 2.0 g/cm³</h3>

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

density =  \frac{mass}{volume} \\

From the question

mass = 4 g

volume = 2 cm³

We have

density =  \frac{4}{2}  \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>2.0 g/cm³</h3>

Hope this helps you
