The computation for this problem is:
(1.55x10^4 / 1.0x10^3) x 19.8 mm Hg
= 15.5 x 19.88 mm Hg
= 308.14 mm Hg decrease
= 308.14 x 0.05 C = 15.407 deg C
deduct this amount to 100
100 – 15.407 = 84.593 C
ANSWER: 85 deg C (rounded to 2 significant figures)
The daughter isotope (a decay product)of O-15 = N-15(Nitrogen 15)
<h3>Further explanation
</h3>
Radioactivity is the process of unstable isotopes to stable isotopes by decay, by emitting certain particles,
- alpha α particles ₂He⁴
- beta β ₋₁e⁰ particles
- gamma particles γ
- positron particles ₁e⁰
O-15 emits positron particles ₁e⁰, so the atomic number decreases by 1, the mass number is the same
Reaction

The mass number of the daughter isotope = 15, atomic number = 7
If we look at the periodic system, the element with atomic number 7 is Nitrogen (N)
Continental drift is the movement of Earth’s continents over long periods of time. An evidence for this is that some continents look like puzzle pieces that can fit together, such as South America and Africa. Another evidence is that fossils of the same type have been found in different continents, far apart - suggesting that the two continents once were joined. Another evidence is that identical rocks were found at both sides of the Atlantic Ocean by Alfred Wegener, the main developer of the continents drift theory.

First, look up the atomic weights of the elements involved.
Atomic weight carbon = 12.0107
Atomic weight hydrogen = 1.00794
Atomic weight sulfur = 32.065
Molar mass (C3H5)2S = 6 * 12.0107 + 10 * 1.00794 + 32.065
= 114.2086 g/mol
Moles (C3H5)2S = 35.4 g / 114.2086 g/mol = 0.309959145 mol
Since there's just one sulfur atom per (C3H5)2S molecule, the number of moles of sulfur will match the number of moles of (C3H5)2S which is 0.310 when rounded to 3 significant digits.</span>
