Answer:
5 mg
Explanation:
If one half life is 4 hours, then 3 half lives is 12 hours.
This means that the sample will decay to 1/8 of its original amount.
So, the answer is 40(1/8) = 5 mg.
The correct answer is 0.014467 M.
Molarity is defined as the number of moles present in a liter solution, that is, number of moles / liter solution.
The molar mass of sodium (Na) is 23.0 g/mol
Thus, 1 mole of Na contains 23.0 g
Now, x moles of Na contains 0.50 g
Moles = 0.50 × 1 / 23.0
Moles = 0.50 / 23.0
= 0.0217 moles of Na
Molarity = Number of moles / liters of solution
= 0.0217 / 1.5
= 0.014467 M
Answer:
0.0468 g.
Explanation:
- The decay of radioactive elements obeys first-order kinetics.
- For a first-order reaction: k = ln2/(t1/2) = 0.693/(t1/2).
Where, k is the rate constant of the reaction.
t1/2 is the half-life time of the reaction (t1/2 = 1620 years).
∴ k = ln2/(t1/2) = 0.693/(1620 years) = 4.28 x 10⁻⁴ year⁻¹.
- For first-order reaction: <em>kt = lna/(a-x).</em>
where, k is the rate constant of the reaction (k = 4.28 x 10⁻⁴ year⁻¹).
t is the time of the reaction (t = t1/2 x 8 = 1620 years x 8 = 12960 year).
a is the initial concentration (a = 12.0 g).
(a-x) is the remaining concentration.
∴ kt = lna/(a-x)
(4.28 x 10⁻⁴ year⁻¹)(12960 year) = ln(12)/(a-x).
5.54688 = ln(12)/(a-x).
Taking e for the both sides:
256.34 = (12)/(a-x).
<em>∴ (a-x) = 12/256.34 = 0.0468 g.</em>
Cooper cannot be broken down into a simpler substance since it is an element meaning it had its own atoms.
Answer:
False
Explanation:
Cell division is a primary procedure by all cells. This process in the life cycle of cells ensures that new cells (daughter cells) are produced. The two major process are; meiosis and mitosis.
Normal cells would divide if the nutrients required are not present, since water is the main nutrient required. But in some cases, the division process may lead to an effect on one or both daughter cells. This effect is called mutation, thereby mutated cells may be produced.
