Arenal Volcano: Plate Tectonic Setting. The volcanic arc of Costa Rica, where Arenal is located, is a chain of mountains resulting from the subduction of the Cocos tectonic plate under the Caribbean Plate. Costa Rica is part of the Central American isthmus, which connects the North and South American continents.

The time necessary for the decay of one- half sample of a radioactive substance is a _____. mass defect daughter half life nucli
Mazyrski [523]

Answer: half life

Explanation: Radioactive decay follows first order kinetics and the time required for the decay of a radioactive material is calculated as follows:

t=\frac{2.303}{k}\hspace{1mm}log\frac{x}{a}

t= time required

k= disintegration constant

x= amount of substance left after time t

a= initial amount of substance

when one half of the sample is decayed, one half of the sample remains and t can be represented as t_{1/2}

at t= t_{1/2}, x=\frac{a}{2}

t_{1/2}=\frac{2.303}{k}\hspace{1mm}log\frac{a/2}{a}

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

What is a solution in chemistry
Hatshy [7]
Solutions are a type of mixture.

A solution is a homogeneous mixture of particles so small that they cannot be seen and cannot be filtered out.

Definition: Homogeneous mixture looks the same.

I grabbed these from my science notes, hope this helps.

Which direction does air circulate into low pressure zones in the northern and southern hemisphere
Yuri [45]
<span>Now consider a low pressure area on a disk as shown below.A parcel of air at point A would move toward the center of the low pressure area. That movement would take it farther away from the center of the disk and therefore it would move to the west. A parcel of air at B would move toward the center of the low pressure area which would also take it closer to the center of the spinning disk where its speed is greater than the surrounding points. It would appear to move to the east. With A moving to the west and B moving to the east the line from A to B is rotating counterclockwise.</span>

Mass defect for oxygen-16 = 0. 13261 amu How many kilograms does the mass defect represent? 1. 66 × 10-27 kg 2. 20 × 10 -28 kg 3
Zepler [3.9K]

Mass defect for oxygen-16 = 0. 13261 amu, in the kilograms the mass defect equals to 2.20 × 10⁻²⁸ kg.

<h3>What is mass defect?</h3>

Mass defect is the difference between the mass of of an whole atom and the combined mass of its individual particles present in that atom.

We know that, 1 amu = 1.6 × 10⁻²⁷ kg

Given that, mass defect for oxygen-16 = 0.13261 amu

To calculate this defect in terms of kilograms, we have to convert into kg unit as:

0.13261 amu = 0.13261 amu × 1.6 × 10⁻²⁷ kg/amu

0.13261 amu = 2.20 × 10⁻²⁸ kg

Hence option (2) is correct.

There are some data that suggest that zinc lozenges can significantly shorten the duration of a cold. If the solubility of zinc
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

K_{sp} of Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2} is 0.0513

Explanation:

Solubility equilibrium of Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2}:

Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2}\rightleftharpoons Zn^{2+}+2CH_{3}COO^{-}

Solubility product of Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2} (K_{sp}) is written as-            K_{sp}=[Zn^{2+}][CH_{3}COO^{-}]^{2}

Where [Zn^{2+}] and [CH_{3}COO^{-}] represents equilibrium concentration (in molarity) of Zn^{2+} and CH_{3}COO^{-} respectively.

Molar mass of Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2} = 183.48 g/mol

So, solubility of Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2} = \frac{43.0}{183.48}M = 0.234M

1 mol of Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2} gives 1 mol of Zn^{2+} and 2 moles of CH_{3}COO^{-} upon dissociation.

so,   [Zn^{2+}] = 0.234 M and [CH_{3}COO^{-}] = (2\times 0.234)M=0.468M

so, K_{sp}=(0.234)\times (0.468)^{2}=0.0513
