Answer:

5.8μg

Explanation:

According to the rate or decay law:

N/N₀ = exp(-λt)------------------------------- (1)

Where N = Current quantity,  μg

            N₀ = Original quantity, μg

             λ= Decay constant day⁻¹

              t =  time in days

Since the half life is 4.5 days, we can calculate the  λ from (1) by  substituting N/N₀ = 0.5

0.5 = exp (-4.5λ)

ln 0.5  = -4.5λ

-0.6931 = -4.5λ

λ =   -0.6931 /-4.5

  =0.1540 day⁻¹

Substituting into (1)  we have :

N/N₀ = exp(-0.154t)----------------------------- (2)

To receive 5.0 μg of the nuclide with a delivery time of 24 hours or 1 day:

N = 5.0 μg

N₀ = Unknown

t = 1 day

Substituting into (2) we have

[5/N₀]   = exp (-0.154 x 1)

    5/N₀        = 0.8572

N₀  =  5/0.8572

     =    5.8329μg

    ≈     5.8μg

The Chemist must order 5.8μg  of 47-CaCO3

Assume that the pressure inside of the 1 liter balloon is 200,000 Pa, what is the explosive energy in the inside the balloon? Ex
AysviL [449]

Answer:

200 Joules is the explosive energy in the inside the balloon. And that is  9.523\times 10^{-5}1 lb of TNT.

Explanation:

Pressure=\frac{force}{Area}=\frac{Force\times distance}{Area \times distance}=\frac{Energy}{Volume}

Volume of the balloon = V = 1 L = 0.001 m^3

Pressure inside the balloon ,P= 200,000 Pa =200,000 N/m^2

Explosive energy in the inside the balloon be E.

E = Pressure × Volume

E=200,000 N/m^2\times 0.001 m^3=200 Joules

1 lb of TNT = 2.1\times 10^6 J

200 Joules = 200\times \frac{1}{2.1\times 10^6 }1 lb of TNT

= 9.523\times 10^{-5}1 lb of TNT

Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

(a)57.48 percent (b) 29.45 percent

Explanation:

copper(II) bromide is 29.45 percent copper and 71.54 percent bromine. so the first element percentage composition is always the percentage composition of the compound.

that goes same with sodium hydroxide. it  is 57.48 percent sodium, 40 percent oxygen, and 2.52 percent hydrogen.

the ingredients of the average adult,right down to the last specks of protein in your eyelashes. And even though science has given us the entire physical breakdown, there's never been a successful attempt at bringing a human to life. There's still something missing. Something scientists haven't been able to find in centuries of research. ...and in case you're wondering, all those ingredients can be bought on a child's allowance. humans can be made rather cheap. There's no magic to it.
