Answer:

Three half lives corresponds to (12)3 . So a 18 quantity of the original isotope is retained. And the percentage of quantity of a radioactive material that remains after 5 half-lives will be . ∴NN0×100=10032=3.125.

13. a. Why are the units used to express the densi-
LenaWriter [7]

Answer with Explanation:

The units used to express the densities of gases are different from those of solids and liquids because the particles in gas are widely separated from each other, unlike the particles in solid and liquid <u><em>which are almost the same</em></u>. The particles in solid are very close together. Considering it melts (if it's an ice), it will turn into a liquid and the change in volume is slightly greater only. However, if the liquid evaporates and transitions into a gas, <u>the volume becomes largely different from its solid and liquid state</u>. This is because the particles are much farther apart and free to move.

If you can help answer the question if you can't then don't
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

Yes its both a physical and chemical change heres why.

When heated , the wax melts to form a liquid wax . The liquid wax then becomes a solid wax upon cooling ( Physical change )

When the candle is lit, the wax near the tip of the candle will melt . The wick then absorbs the liquid wax . The liquid wax then vapourizes due to the heat emitting from the flame . The wax vapour then burns to give off a black substance ( what we will to as CO₂ , soot ) , heat and water vapour

(Chemical change )

Based on the information, what is the balanced chemical equation representing the burning of butane?
kompoz [17]

Answer:

OptionA. 2C4H10 + 13O2 —> 8CO2 + 10H20

Explanation:

Butane burns is air (O2) according to the equation:

C4H10 + O2 —> CO2 + H20

Considering the equation, it is evident that it not balanced. Now let us balance the equation as shown below;

There are a total of 4 carbon atoms on the left and 1 carbon atom on the right. It can be balanced by putting 4 in front of CO2 as shown below:

C4H10 + O2 —> 4CO2 + H20

Next, there are 10 hydrogen atoms on the left and 2 hydrogen atoms on the right. Therefore to balance it, put 5 in front of H2O as shown below:

C4H10 + O2 —> 4CO2 + 5H20

Now, there are a total of 13 oxygen atoms on the right and 2 at the left. To balance it, put 13/2 in front of O2

as shown below

C4H10 + 13/2O2 —> 4CO2 + 5H20

Now we multiply through by 2 clear off the fraction and we obtained:

2C4H10 + 13O2 —> 8CO2 + 10H20
