T=20 min
m₀=200 g
t=60 min

the mass of element through time t is:
m=m₀*2^(-t/T)

m=200*2^(-60/20)=25 g

25 grams of element will be left after 60 minutes

Answer: 25 grams

Explanation:

Radioactive decay follows first order kinetics.

Half-life of element = 20 minutes

\lambda =\frac{0.693}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}=\frac{0.693}{20}=0.035min^{-1}

N=N_o\times e^{-\lambda t}

N = amount left after time t = ?

N_0 = initial amount  = 200 g

\lambda = rate constant

t= time  = 60 min

N=200\times e^{- 0.035 min^{-1}\times 60 min}

N=25g

Thus amount left after 60 minutes will be 25 grams.

Consider the nuclear equation below. Superscript 235 subscript 92 upper U right arrow superscript 4 subscript 2 upper H e. What
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

\rm_{90}^{231}\text{Th}

Explanation:

The unbalanced nuclear equation is

\rm _{92}^{235}\text{U} \longrightarrow \,  _{2}^{4}\text{He} + X

Let's write X as a nuclear symbol.

\rm _{92}^{235}\text{U} \longrightarrow \,  _{2}^{4}\text{He} + _{Z}^{A}\text{X}

The main point to remember in balancing nuclear equations is that the sums of the superscripts and of the subscripts must be the same on each side of the reaction arrow.

Then

235 = 4 + A , so A = 235 - 4 = 231, and

 92 = 2 + Z , so  Z =   92 - 2 =  90

And your nuclear equation becomes

\rm _{92}^{235}\text{U} \longrightarrow \,  _{2}^{4}\text{He} +\, _{90}^{231}\text{X}

Element 90 is thorium, so  

\rm X = _{90}^{231}\text{Th}

Physical properties of reactants: Physical properties of products: 12.
dolphi86 [110]

Answer: The reactants are baking soda and vinegar. Baking soda is a white powder, and vinegar is a clear liquid. The products of this reaction are carbon dioxide, water, and sodium acetate. Carbon dioxide is a colorless gas, water is a colorless liquid, and sodium acetate is a white crystalline powder.

A chemical change can be seen in how the molecular formulas of the products are different from the reactants, since the reactants have chemically changed into completely different molecules.

Hope this helps

Find the density if the volume is 15 mL and the mass is 8.6 g. (5 pts)
allsm [11]

Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{0.57 g/mL; 3.7 mL; 6.6 g; 0.366 g/mL}}

Explanation:

1. Density from mass and volume

\text{Density} = \dfrac{\text{mass}}{\text{volume}}\\\\\rho = \dfrac{m}{V}\\\\\rho = \dfrac{\text{8.6 g}}{\text{15 mL}} = \text{0.57 g/mL}\\\text{The density is $\large \boxed{\textbf{0.57 g/mL}}$}

2. Volume from density and mass

V = \text{9.7 g}\times\dfrac{\text{1 mL}}{\text{2.6 g}} = \text{3.7 mL}\\\\\text{The volume is $\large \boxed{\textbf{3.7 mL}}$}

3. Mass from density and volume

\text{Mass} = \text{4.1 cm}^{3} \times \dfrac{\text{1.6 g}}{\text{1 cm}^{3}} = \textbf{6.6 g}\\\\\text{The mass is $\large \boxed{\textbf{6.6 g}}$}

4. Density by displacement

Volume of water + object = 24.6 mL

Volume of water                =<u> 12.8 mL</u>

Volume of object               = 11.8 mL

\rho = \dfrac{\text{4.3 g}}{\text{11.8 mL}} = \text{0.36 g/mL}\\\text{The density is $\large \boxed{\textbf{0.36 g/mL}}$}

Your drawing showing water displacement using a graduated cylinder should resemble the figure below.
