Answer:

12.5%

Explanation:

The half life of any reaction is the amount of time it takes to consume half of the starting material.

In this case, the original or starting percentage of material is 100%

100% - 50% : First Half Life

50% - 25%   : Second Half life

25% - 12.5% : Third Half life.

After three half lives have passes, the percentage of strontium-90 that remains in a sample is 12.5%

12.5% of strontium-90 would remain in a sample after three half-lives have passed. Half-life automatically means 50% of the original amount would remain.

On the basis of electronegativity, which of these pairs of elements is most likely to form polyatomic ions?
Vinvika [58]
Correct Answer: <span>O and P

Reason: 
The nature of bond depends on the electronegativity difference of constituent atoms. If difference in electronegativity of constituent atoms is more, it will result in ionic bonding. Alternatively, if difference in electronegativity of constituent atoms is less, it will prefer covalent bonding. Further,  covalently bonded </span><span>elements are most likely to form polyatomic ions.

In present case, electronegativity difference of O and P is minimum. Hence, they </span><span>are most likely to form polyatomic ions.</span>

What does mufasa mean when he says we are all connected in a circle of life?
Paul [167]

Answer:

Prior to his death, Mufasa explains to Simba that “when we die, our bodies become the grass, and the antelope eat the grass, and so we are all connected in the great circle of life” . This is an ecological metaphor that goes beyond the human experience, intertwining the supernatural and physical world.
