Answer:

The half-life of strontium-90 is 28.81 years

Explanation:

<u>Step 1:</u> Data given

Mass of strontium 90 = 1.000 grams

After 2 years there remain 0.953 grams

<u>Step 2:</u> Calculate half-life time

k = (-1/t) * ln (Nt/N0)

⇒ with k = rate constant for the decay

⇒ with N0 = the mass of strontium at the start (t=0) = 1.000 grams

⇒ with Nt =  the mass of strontium after time t (2 years) = 0.953 grams

k = (-1/2) * ln(0.953/1)

k = (-1/2) * (-0.0481) = 0.02405 /yr

t1/2 = 0.693/k= 0.693/ 0.02405 = 28.81  years

The half-life of strontium-90 is 28.81 years

The chart is about atomic structure: at the top, the left box is "nucleus" and the right is "electron cloud".


On the left, under nucleus, the two boxes are: "protons" on the right and "neutrons" on the left.  Under proton is elements which is given and under neutrons, it is "isotopes".


On the right, under electron cloud, the next box is "electrons" and then the lower box is "ions".

Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

Imine can be isolated from the reaction mixture as water is continuously removed from the reaction chamber

Explanation:

In this reaction, a non -aqueous solvent  is not used (not mentioned in the question). Thus, we can say that there is continuous removal water under suitable reacting conditions and hence the imine formed is left behind.
