Answer: It will take 29 years for a 10.0-gram sample of strontium-90 to decay to 5.00 grams
Explanation:
Radioactive decay process is a type of process in which a less stable nuclei decomposes to a stable nuclei by releasing some radiations or particles like alpha, beta particles or gamma-radiations. The radioactive decay follows first order kinetics.
Half life is the amount of time taken by a radioactive material to decay to half of its original value.
Half life is represented by
= rate constant
Given : Strontium-90 decreases in mass by one-half every 29 years , that is half life of Strontium-90 is 29 years.
As half life is independent of initial concentration, it will take 29 years for a 10.0-gram sample of strontium-90 to decay to 5.00 grams as the amount gets half.

2)
The Kc for the reverse reaction is the inverse of the Kc of the reaction:
3)
The Kc for the reverse reaction is the inverse of the Kc of the reaction:
Answer:
Explanation:
Atomic number : It is defined as the number of electrons or number of protons present in a neutral atom.
However, when we talk about the atomic number of the ion, it is not equal to the number of electrons as electron can be gained or loosed.
This is why, more appropriately, the number of the protons which are present in the nucleus of the atom is called the atomic number.
Thus, atomic number of phosphorus = 15
Mass number is the number of the entities present in the nucleus which is the equal to the sum of the number of protons and electrons.
Given, Mass number = 32
Thus, the symbol of the isotope is:-
