Answer:
1 g
Explanation:
The half-life of Am-242 (16 h) is the time it takes for half of it to disappear.
We can make a table of the mass left after each half-life.

The mass remaining after 48 h is 1 g.
Answer:
Explanation:
(a) Answer: Intermolecular forces
The reason for this answer is because the substance (paraffin wax) only changed it's state from solid to liquid and didn't undergo a breakage in it's covalent bond within it's carbon chain which would have produced another substance.
(b) Solid substances are generally more dense than there corresponding liquid substances because the more compact particles are (which occurs in solids), the more dense they become. They are thus more dense than liquids because liquids have there particles loosely packed and well spaced making them less dense than there corresponding solids. Hence, the solid paraffin wax was going to become less dense because it's particles moved from being tightly packed (as solids) to being loosely packed (as liquids). Density refers to mass per volume but can also be described as the level of compactness of a substance. Thus, since liquid is not as compact as solid, it can be said to be less dense than solids.
Answer:
After the transfer the pressure inside the 20 L vessel is 0.6 atm.
Explanation:
Considering O2 as an ideal gas, it is at an initial state (1) with V1 = 3L and P1 = 4 atm. And a final state (2) with V2 = 20L. The temperature remain constant at all the process, thus here applies the Boyle-Mariotte law. This law establishes that at a constant temperature an ideal gas the relationship between pressure and volume remain constant at all time:

Therefore, for this problem the step by step explanation is:

Clearing P2 and replacing

Answer:
Explanation:
It is volume-volume problems that does not require the use of molar mass.
The molar mass of Beryllium is 9.012182 u (symbol I can't put down) 0.000003 U
