Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we need to use the expression of half life decay of concentration (or mass) which is the following:

m = m₀e^-kt  (1)

In this case, k will be the constant rate of this element. This is calculated using the following expression:

k = ln2/t₁/₂  (2)

Let's calculate the value of k first:

k = ln2/2.7 = 0.2567 d⁻¹

Now, we can use the expression (1) to calculate the remaining mass:

m = 8.1 * e^(-0.2567 * 2.6)

m = 8.1 * e^(-0.6674)

m = 8.1 * 0.51303

m = 4.16 mg remaining

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The  El Nino/Southern Oscillation occurs in between the three phases Neutral, La Nina or El Nino.

The humboldt current takes cold water to South America's west coast to the tropics from the  Southern Ocean. Because of the welling which takes place in Peru this process is enhanced. Due to the trade winds near the equator the cold water travels west where it heats up due to the sun. This makes the water of the western Pacific warmer.

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

1) magnesium chloride

2) b) The copper is getting oxidized from Cu+ to Cu2+ and turns blue.

Explanation:

The work published by David N. Frick, Sukalyani Banik, and Ryan S. Rypma in J Mol Biol. 2007 Jan 26; 365(4): 1017–1032 clearly shows that divalent metal ions of group 2 such as Mg^2+ play an important role in ATP hydrolysis. Addition of EDTA decreased the rate of hydrolysis of ATP (due to sequestration of the divalent ion of group 2) indicating an active participation of divalent ions in the process.

2) The copper I ion is colourless because it is a d^10 specie. However, when it is oxidized to Cu^2+, a blue colour appears in the solution.
