1.5 % is the percent yield in the reaction.
Explanation:
Given that:
original mass of the sample used in reaction = 1.897 grams
product formed after decomposition = 1.071 grams
The reaction for the decomposition:
Mg(HCO3)2 (s) ⇒ CO2 (g) + H2O (g) + MgCO2 (s)
It says that 1 mole of Mg(HCO3)2 yielded 1 mole of MgCO2 on decomposition
68.31 grams/mole or 68.31 grams of MgCO2 is formed
percent yield = x 100
putting the values in the equation:
percent yield =
= 0.015 x100
PERCENT YIELD = 1.5 %
It will take 5.2 years to decay.
The half life of cobalt-60 is 5.2 years. The half life is the time taken for the mass of the substance to decrease by a half.
here, the amount of remaining substance is 50%,
so,
n. log (0.5) = log (0.5)
n = 1
So it would take 1 half lives to decay this much, which is 1 x 5.2 which is 5.2 years.
what do you mean by radioactive decay ?
The process through which an unstable atomic nucleus loses energy via radiation is known as radioactive decay, also known as nuclear decay, radioactivity, radioactive disintegration, or nuclear disintegration. A material that has unstable nuclei is considered as radioactive.
