A chemist wishing to do an experiment requiring 47-Ca2+ (half-life = 4.5 days) needs 5.0 μg of the nuclide. What mass of 47-CaCO

3 must be ordered if it takes 24 h for delivery from the supplier? Assume that the atomic mass of 47-Ca is 47.0 u.

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

Answer:

Answer is Object 2 (which has a density of 1.9 g/cm³).

Explanation;

   When object is floating, the weight of that object is less than the up thrust on it.

   When an object fully submerged and floating, then the weight of that object is equal to the up thrust on it.

   This is known as the Archemide's principle.

   Both up thrust and weight depends on the density. Hence, if the density of the solution is high, then the up thrust also high. If the density high, the the weight of the object also high.

   Hence, to sink the object in water, that object should be denser than water. Hence, answer is object 3 which has a higher density than water.

lubasha [3.4K]

Characteristics of pea plants are determined by genes inherited from both the parents.

Option 4.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Gregor Johann Mendel is also called as the father of Genetics. Mendel experimented on the pea plants to determine what happens when different types of pea plants are crossed between themselves and what actually determines the characteristics of the pea plants. After two types of experiments, he came to a conclusion that there are certain substances which he named as '' factors'' which are actually inherited from the parents. He also told that there are certain type of factors which are dominant over the others which he termed as recessive factors. So, the characteristics of the progenies depend on both the factors inherited from both the parents.
