<u>Answer:</u> The number of carbon and oxygen atoms in the given amount of carbon dioxide is
and
respectively
<u>Explanation:</u>
To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

Given mass of carbon dioxide gas = 3.45 g
Molar mass of carbon dioxide gas = 44 g/mol
Putting values in above equation, we get:

1 mole of carbon dioxide gas contains 1 mole of carbon and 2 moles of oxygen atoms.
According to mole concept:
1 mole of a compound contains
number of molecules
So, 0.0784 moles of carbon dioxide gas will contain
number of carbon atoms and
number of oxygen atoms
Hence, the number of carbon and oxygen atoms in the given amount of carbon dioxide is
and
respectively
Hey there!
A half-life means after a certain amount of time, half of that substance will be gone/changed after that time.
How many half-lives are in 16 days?
Multiply 16 by 24 (to get the total hours) and divide that by 2.5.
That is 153.6 half-lives.
35(0.5)^(153.6) represents the equation for this.
Simplify this and get 8.88 x 10^(-45).
There will be 2.02 x 10^(-45)g of germanium-66 sample remaining after 16 days.
Hope this helps!
