Answer: Option (D) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Metals are the substances which donate electrons to complete their octet. They are malleable and ductile in nature. They are able to conduct heat and electricity. Metals have shiny surface and sonorous in nature.

Metals are placed at the left and middle of periodic table.

Whereas non-metals are the substances which accept electrons to complete their octet. They are poor conductors of heat and electricity. They are brittle and non-sonorous in nature.

Non-metals are placed at the right of periodic table.

Hence, we can conclude that right or middle of the table because it is a metal best explains the probable position of the substance in the periodic table.

The​ half-life of a certain tranquilizer in the bloodstream is 5050 hours. how long will it take for the drug to decay to 8686​%
Novosadov [1.4K]
Using the exponential decay model; we calculate "k"
We know that "A" is half of A0
A = A0 e^(k× 5050)
A/A0 = e^(5050k)
0.5 = e^(5055k)
In (0.5) = 5055k 
-0.69315 = 5055k
 k = -0.0001371
To calculate how long it will take to decay to 86% of the original mass
0.86 = e^(-0.0001371t)
In (0.86) = -0.0001371t
-0.150823 = -0.0001371 t
 t = 1100 hours

A nuclear waste site. cesium-137 is a particularly dangerous by-product of nuclear reactors. it has a half-life of 30 years. it
hram777 [196]
The mass decay rate is of the form
m(t) = m_{0} e^{-kt}
where
m₀ = 3000 g,the initial mass
k = the decay constant
t = time, years.

Because the half-life is 30 years, therefore
e^{-30k} =  \frac{1}{2} \\\ -30k = ln(0.5) \\ k =  \frac{ln(0.5)}{-30} =0.0231

After 60 years, the mass remaining is
m = 3000 e^{-0.0231*60} = 750 \, g

Answer: 750 g

Which of the following was NOT suggested by Rutherford’s gold foil experiment?
Phoenix [80]

Answer: The Answer is C.

Explanation: The Nucleus only makes up less than .01% of the volume of the Atom. The Nucleus does contain more than 99.9% of the mass of the Atom. I hope that this helps you! Good luck!

How do helpful variations increase in a species over time?
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

through natural selection

Explanation:

Natural selection is the driving mechanism of the evolution of species. Organisms can survive more in an environment if they are capable to adapt the changing environmental conditions. After surviving they are also able to pass their modified trait into their future generations (evolution).

Helpful variations accumulate through natural selection, as the organisms that are better adapted to their environment reproduce offspring with the same variations.

A 0.205 g sample of CaCO3 (Mr = 100.1 g/mol) is added to a flask along with 7.50 mL of 2.00 M HCl. CaCO3(aq) + 2HCl(aq) → CaCl2(
Varvara68 [4.7K]

The volume of the NaOH used is calculated as 14 mL.

<h3>What is stoichiometry?</h3>

The term stoichiometry has to do with the calculation of the amount of substance in a reaction using mass - mole or mass - volume relationship.

Here;

Number of  moles of CaCO3 = 0.205 g/100.1 = 0.00205 moles

Number of  moles of HCl = 2.00 M * 7/1000 L = 0.014 moles

2 moles of HCl reacts with 1 mole of CaCO3

x moles of HCl reacts with 0.00205 moles of CaCO3

x = 0.00205 moles * 2/1 = 0.0041 moles

Hence HCl is the excess reactant

Amount of excess HCl =  0.014 moles -  0.0041 moles = 0.0099 moles

Concentration of excess HCl reacted = 0.0099 moles/125 * 10^-3 = 0.0792 M

Using;

CAVA/CBVB = NA/NB

CAVANB = CBVBNA

VB = CAVANB/CBNA

VB = 0.0792 M * 10 mL * 1/ 0.058 M

VB = 14 mL

Missing parts;

A 0.205 g sample of caco3 (mr = 100.1 g/mol) is added to a flask along with 7.50 ml of 2.00 m hcl. caco3(aq) + 2hcl(aq) → cacl2(aq) + h2o(l) + co2(g) enough water is then added to make a 125.0 ml solution. a 10.00 ml aliquot of this solution is taken and titrated with 0.058 m naoh. naoh(aq) + hcl(aq) → h2o(l) + nacl(aq) how many ml of naoh are used?
