Cobalt-60 is a strong gamma emitter that has a half- life of 5.26 yr. The co balt-60 in a radiotherapy unit must be replaced whe

Alenkasestr [34]

<u>Answer:</u> The sample of Cobalt-60 isotope must be replaced in January 2027

<u>Explanation:</u>

The equation used to calculate rate constant from given half life for first order kinetics:

$t_{1/2}=\frac{0.693}{k}$

where,

$t_{1/2}$ = half life of the reaction = 5.26 years

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$k=\frac{0.693}{5.26yrs}=0.132yrs^{-1}$

Rate law expression for first order kinetics is given by the equation:

$k=\frac{2.303}{t}\log\frac{[A_o]}{[A]}$

where,

k = rate constant = $0.132yr^{-1}$

t = time taken for decay process = ? yr

$[A_o]$ = initial amount of the sample = 100 grams

[A] = amount left after decay process = (100 - 75) = 25 grams

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.132=\frac{2.303}{t}\log\frac{100}{25}\\\\t=10.5yrs$

The original sample was purchased in June 2016

As, June is the 6th month of the year, which means the time period will be $2016+\frac{6}{12}=2016.5$

Adding the time in the original time period, we get:

$2016.5+10.5=2027$

Hence, the sample of Cobalt-60 isotope must be replaced in January 2027

1. What causes frost to form on the outside of a<br>cold container.

Kamila [148]

Answer:

condensation

Explanation:

Frost forms when an outside surface cools past the dew point. The dew point is the point where the air gets so cold, the water vapor in the atmosphere turns into liquid. This liquid freezes. If it gets cold enough, little bits of ice, or frost, form

Air has a mass of 1.2g and a volume of 4,555ml. What is the density

coldgirl [10]

Answer:

<h2>Density = 0.00026 g/mL</h2>

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

<h3> $Density(\rho) = \frac{mass}{volume}$ </h3>

From the question

mass of air = 1.2 g

volume = 4,555 mL

Substitute the values into the above formula and solve for the density

That's

<h3> $Density = \frac{1.2}{4555}$ </h3>

= 0.0002634

We have the final answer as

<h3>Density = 0.00026 g/mL</h3>

Hope this helps you

2.40 g of NH4Cl is added to 19.4 g of water. Calculate the molality of the solution.

Sholpan [36]

Molality is the moles of solute per kg of solvent.

Moles of NH₄Cl = 2.4 / (14 + 4 x 1 + 35.5)
= 0.0448 mole

Molality = 0.0448 / (19.4 / 1000)
= 2.31 m
