Hey there!

A half-life means after a certain amount of time, half of that substance will be gone/changed after that time.

There are two half lives in 20 years because 20 ÷ 10 = 2.

So, we divide the 100g sample in half 2 times.

100 ÷ 2 = 50

50 ÷ 2 = 25

There will be 25g of the radioactive sample remaining after two half lives.

Hope this helps!

Collision Coverage Example:
You're driving down the street and rear end the car in front of you. Your liability insurance will pau for the damage done to the other car, and your Collision insurance (or coverage) will pay for the damage done to your own vehicle because this was an accident in which you collided with another vehicle.

Comprehensive Coverage Example:
When there's damage to your windshield; damage from natural disasters and bad weather conditions, like wind storms, hurricanes, floods, earthquakes, hail, etc,.

Hope I helped!

Aspirin can be made in the laboratory by reacting acetic anhydride (c4h6o3) with salicylic acid (c7h6o3) to form aspirin (c9h8o4
Temka [501]
V(C₄H₆O₃) = 5.00 mL.
d(C₄H₆O₃) = 1.08 g/mL.
m(C₄H₆O₃) = V(C₄H₆O₃) · d(C₄H₆O₃).
m(C₄H₆O₃) = 5.00 mL · 1.08 g/mL.
m(C₄H₆O₃) = 5.4 g.
n(C₄H₆O₃) = m(C₄H₆O₃) ÷ M(C₄H₆O₃).
n(C₄H₆O₃) = 5.4 g ÷ 102 g/mol.
n(C₄H₆O₃) = 0.0529 mol.
n(C₇H₆O₃) = 2.08 g ÷ 138.1 g/mol.
n(C₇H₆O₃) = 0.015 mol; limiting reactant.
From chemical reaction: n(C₄H₆O₃) : n(C₉H₈O₄) = 1 : 1.
n(C₉H₈O₄) = 0.015 mol.
m(C₉H₈O₄) = 0.015 mol · 180.16 g/mol.
m(C₉H₈O₄) = 2.71 g; theoretical yield.
percent yield od aspirine = 2.57 g ÷ 2.71 g · 100% = 94.83%.

Describe how cells are organized into larger and larger groups to help living things survive
mestny [16]
Cells are organized into tissues. Tissues carry out specific functions. Groups of tissues can then form organs that also have specific functions to carry out. Lastly groups of organs form organ systems that regulate many functions in a specific part of the body.

Question 3 (Molarity)
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

The molarity of the solution is 1,03 M.

Explanation:

Molarity is a concentration measure that expresses the moles of solute (in this case HBR) in 1 liter of solution (1000ml). First we calculate the mass of 1 mol of HBr, to calculate the moles that are in 50 g of said compound:

Weight 1 mol HBr= Weight H + Weight Br= 1,01g + 79,90g= 80, 91 g/mol

80,91 g ----1 mol HBr

50,0 g------x= (50,0 g x1 mol HBr)/80,91 g= 0,62 mol HBr

600 ml solution-----0,62 mol HBr

1000ml solution------x= (1000ml solution x 0,62 mol HBr)/600 ml solution

<em>x=1,03 moles HBr ---> The solution is 1,03M</em>
