The radon-222 sample has a half-life of 3.8 days, and we are asked how many times would the mass divide in half after 23 days. First we calculate the amount of times division occurs by taking the number of days and dividing that by the number of days for one half-life to occur: 23/3.8 = 6.05.
We have 198.6 grams of sample, and we are going to divide it in half 6 times to determine how much of it remains after 23 days:
198.6/2 = 99.3 grams
99.3/2 = 49.65 grams
49.65/2 = 24.83 grams
24.83/2 = 12.41 grams
12.41/2 = 6.21 grams
6.21/2 = 3.1 grams
Therefore, we are left with 3.1 grams of radon-222 after 23 days if one half-life equals to 3.8 days.
AXz
Explanation:
It is a chemical notation of nuclide
Here X is the symbol of the element
A is the mass number of element
A=n+p(sum of protons and neutrons)
Z is the atomic number.
For example, 12C6
Hers X is C, symbol of carbon
12 is the mass number and 6 is the atomic number of the carbon.

Answer:
moles Ar in 20g = 0.500 mole Ar
Explanation:
moles = grams given / formula weight = 20g / 39.948g·mol⁻¹ = 0.500 mole Ar
Answer:
The final electron acceptor of the electron transport chain is oxygen
Explanation:
Four electrons gotten from cytochrome c are involved in the conversion of a molecule of oxygen (O2) to two molecules of water (H2O). This final electron transfer occurs in complex IV. Complex IV, also known as cytochrome c oxidase, facilitates the the use of four protons from the matrix of the mitochondrion, in the production of water molecules while pumping four protons to the intermembrane space of the mitochondrion.
