The half-life of a radioactive compound is the time taken for that said isotope to decay or disintegrate so that only half of the initial atoms remain in that compound. During the decay process, the isotope will give off energy and matter, and the way to depict this is indicated by t 1/2.

The high concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere of Mars inhibits infrared radiation from escaping and keeps the
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Mars atmosphere contains mainly carbon iv oxide, but the greenhouse effect as subdued as there is so little CO2 overall.

Venus as a planet contains 96.5% of carbon iv oxide. it doesn't contain water which can trap the CO2 as we have on earth where the oceans are able to trap the CO2 present and subdue the greenhouse effect. This inability to trap CO2 in Venus prevents infrared rays from escaping and with the fact the Venus is closer to the sun than earth and mars, its surface it extremely hot.

Calculate the number of kilojoules to warm 125 g of iron from 23.5 °C to 78.0 °C.
insens350 [35]
Given:
Iron, 125 grams T
1 = 23.5 degrees Celsius, T2 = 78 degrees Celsius.  

Required:
Heat produced in kilojoules  

Solution:
The molar mass of iron is 55.8 grams per mole. SO we need to change the given mass of iron into moles.  
 
Number of moles of iron = 125 g/(55.8 g/mol) = 2.24 moles  
<span>
Q (heat) = nRT = nR(T2 = T1)</span>
Q (heat) = 2.24 moles (8.314 Joules per mol degrees Celsius) (78.0 degrees Celsius – 23.5 degrees Celsius)
<u>Q (heat) = 1014.97 Joules or 1.015 kilojoules</u> <span>This is the amount of heat produced in warming 125 g f iron.</span>

Put the following in the correct chronological order from what happened first to what happened last.
Scilla [17]

Answer:

2-3-1-4
