A radioactive substance decays exponentially. a scientist begins with 120 milligrams of a radioactive substance. after 14 hours,

60 mg of the substance remains. how many milligrams will remain after 19 hours?

First thing is you have to find the half life of the substance. The half life equation is
Final Mass = Initial Mass * 0.5^(time/time per half life)
Now we substitute the values given and we get
60 mg = 120 * 0.5^(14/t)
Solve for t and you get
t = 14 hours
Now plug 19 into the equation
Final Mass = 120 * 0.5^(19/14)
Final Mass = 46.84 mg

The concentration of a certain sodium hydroxide solution was determined by using the solution to titrate a sample of potassium h
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:  

0.022 M

Explanation:

The molarity is the number of mol solute divided by the volume of solution in liters. Since we are told there is only one acidic hydrogen in KHP  the reaction is a 1 to 1 with sodium hydroxide, We then calculate the moles of sodium hydroxide required to react with the  moles of KHP and proceed to calculate the molarity of the NaOH solution:

mol KHP:  0.1082 g  x  1 mol/204.22 g = 0.00053 mol KHP

0.00053 mol KHP x 1 mol Naoh/1 mol KHP = 0.00053 mol NaOH

Molarity of the solution :  0.00053 mol NaOH / 0.02346 L = 0.022 M

note: The volume of sodium hydroxide needed to be converted to liters by definition of molarity.

How are chemicals used in gasoline?
timofeeve [1]

Answer:A typical gasoline mixture contains about 150 different hydrocarbons, including butane, pentane, isopentane and the BTEX compounds (benzene, ethylbenzene, toluene, and xylenes). Gasoline also contains chemicals such as lubricants, anti-rust agents and anti-icing agents that are added to improve car performance.

Lauren has a big social studies test coming up. She knows that she needs to spread out her study sessions over a period of time.
tatuchka [14]

The study strategy Lauren is using in spreading her study sessions over a period of time is pacing, which helps the student develop a schedule focused on their own study pace.

<h3>Pacing Study Sessions</h3>

This study strategy of distributing the study into short sessions rather than studying the entire content through one long session is more effective in retaining content and learning.

What happens is that Lauren is using mass repetition processing, which can be compared to a longitudinal wave in physics, with spaces in between, concentrating the initial review close to the proof to ensure retention and avoid forgetting.

Through pacing, Lauren achieves greater motivation to carry out her studies in a concentrated and focused way, helping her to retain and preserve knowledge.

The correct answer is:

  • Pacing

The atomic mass of magnesium is the weighted average of the atomic masses of
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

2. All the naturally occurring isotopes of Mg.

Explanation:

You want to know the atomic mass of the magnesium you use in the lab. That’s “natural” magnesium. So, you must use the weighted average of all the naturally occurring isotopes in natural Mg.

1. and 3. are <em>wrong</em>. You won’t get the correct mass for natural Mg if you use only the artificial isotopes for your calculation.

4. is <em>wrong</em>. You must use all the naturally occurring isotopes. The two most abundant isotopes of Mg account for only 90 % of the atoms. If you ignore the other 10 %, your calculation will be wrong.
