Wind blows in a straight line from the South Pole to the equator because there is no Coriolis effect in the equator. In this case, there is very little to no deflection. Coriolis effect is when the Earth’s rotation makes the winds curve.

If you have 10 grams of a substance that decays with a half-life of 14 days, then how much will you have after 70 days?
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

a. 0.31 g

Explanation:

  • It is known that the decay of a radioactive isotope isotope obeys first order kinetics.
  • Also, it is clear that in first order decay the half-life time is independent of the initial concentration.
  • Half-life time is the time needed for the reactants to be in its half concentration.
  • If reactant has initial concentration [A₀], after half-life time its concentration will be ([A₀]/2).
  • The half-life time of the substance = 14 days.

<em>So, 70 days represent (70 days/ 14 days = 5.0 half-lives).</em>

<em />

  • So, the substance will decay:

10 g → (first half-life = 14 days) 5 g → (second half-life = 28 days) 1.5 g → (third half-life = 42 days) 1.25 g → (fourth half-life = 56 days) 0.625 g → (fifth half-life = 70 days) 0.3125 g.

<em>So, the right choice is: a. 0.31 g.</em>
