6 0

Answer:

The answer to your question is:

Explanation:

Data

Ion charge of 2- and 18 electrons

Process

a) From which atom does this ion form?

If an Ion has a negative charge, it means that it has more electrons than the neutral atom. So, it the ion has 18 electrons, it means the neutral atom has 16 electrons.

In the periodic table we find that the atom with 16 electrons is Sulfur.

B) How do you know?

I have explained it.

An ion with a negative charge means that it gained the number of negative charges compare with the neutral atom.

How do you use pedigrees to determine and explain the inheritance of traits?
Firdavs [7]
We know that organisms inherit their traits from their parents, and these traits are a combination of the traits their parents possessed. Therefore, by using a pedigree to map the ancestry of an organism, we may evaluate the propagation of a specific trait through the organism's family. An example of this is when people are assessed for the risk of diseases like breast cancer and sickle cell anemia.

The radioactive isotope of lead, Pb-209, decays at a rate proportional to the amount present at time t and has a half-life of 3.
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

Therefore it will take 7.66 hours for 80% of the lead decay.

Explanation:

The differential equation for decay is

\frac{dA}{dt}= kA

\Rightarrow \frac{dA}{A}=kdt

Integrating both sides

ln A= kt+c₁

\Rightarrow A= e^{kt+c_1}

\Rightarrow A=Ce^{kt}         [e^{c_1}=C]

The initial condition is A(0)= A₀,

\therefore A_0=Ce^{0.k}

\Rightarrow C=A_0

\therefore A=A_0e^{kt}.........(1)

Given that the Pb_{209}  has half life of 3.3 hours.

For half life A=\frac12 A_0 putting this in equation (1)

\frac12A_0=A_0e^{k\times3.3}

\Rightarrow ln(\frac12)= 3.3k     [taking ln both sides, ln \ e^a=a]

\Rightarrow k=\frac{ln \frac12}{3.3}

⇒k= - 0.21

Now A₀= 1 gram, 80%=0.8

and A= (1-0.8)A₀ = (0.2×1) gram = 0.2 gram

Now putting the value of k,A and A₀in the equation (1)

\therefore 0.2=1e^{(-0.21)\times t}

\Rightarrow e^{-0.21t}=0.2

\Rightarrow -0.21t= ln(0. 2)

\Rightarrow t= \frac{ln (0.2)}{-0.21}

⇒ t≈7.66

Therefore it will take 7.66 hours for 80% of the lead decay.
