Answer : The time required for decay is, 84 days.
Explanation :
Half-life of chromium-51 = 28 days
First we have to calculate the rate constant, we use the formula :



Now we have to calculate the time required for decay.
Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

where,
k = rate constant
t = time taken by sample = ?
a = let initial activity of the sample = 100
a - x = amount left after decay process = 12.5
Now put all the given values in above equation, we get


Therefore, the time required for decay is, 84 days.
Answer: polar molecule.
Explanation:
The boiling point is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of a liquid equals the external pressure surrounding the liquid. The boiling point is dependent on the type of forces present.
Iodine monochloride (ICl) is a polar molecule due to the difference in electronegativities of iodine and chlorine. Thus the molecules are bonded by strong dipole dipole forces. Thus a higher temperature is needed to generate enough vapor pressure.
Bromine
is a non polar molecule as there is no electronegativity difference between two bromine atoms. The molecules are bonded by weak vanderwaal forces and thus has low boiling point.
Positive ions are formed by atoms or molecules suffering an inelastic collision with an energetic electron in which an electron is lost from the atom or molecule (electron impact ionization). The degree of ionization of the plasma depends strongly on the electron density and energy distribution in the gas.
Answer:
Reflection involves a change in direction of waves when they bounce off a barrier; refraction of waves involves a change in the direction of waves as they pass from one medium to another; and diffraction involves a change in direction of waves as they pass through an opening or around a barrier in their path.
