Sodium-22 remain : 1.13 g

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

The atomic nucleus can experience decay into 2 particles or more due to the instability of its atomic nucleus.  

Usually, radioactive elements have an unstable atomic nucleus.  

General formulas used in decay:  

\large{\boxed{\bold{N_t=N_0(\dfrac{1}{2})^{T/t\frac{1}{2} }}}

T = duration of decay  

t 1/2 = half-life  

N₀ = the number of initial radioactive atoms  

Nt = the number of radioactive atoms left after decaying during T time  

half-life = t 1/2=2.6 years

T=15.6 years

No=72.5 g

\tt Nt=72.5.\dfrac{1}{2}^{15.6/2.6}\\\\Nt=72.5.\dfrac{1}{2}^6\\\\Nt=1.13~g

Calcium chromate, cacro4, has a ksp of 7.1×10−4. what happens when calcium and chromate solutions are mixed to give 0.0200 m ca2
Serjik [45]

The solubility equilibrium of CaCrO_{4}:

[tex] CaCrO_{4}(aq)<===>Ca^{2+}(aq) + CrO_{4}^{2-}(aq)\\
Q_{sp}=[Ca^{2+}][CrO_{4}^{2-}]\\
= (0.0200 M)(0.0300 M) \\
= 0.0006

Ksp (0.00071) > Qsp (0.0006). So, <u>no precipitate would form</u>.
