Answer:

Amount left after 140 days is 38.125 g.

Explanation:

Given data:

Half life of Co-59 = 35 days

Total mass of sample = 610.0 g

Sample remain after 140 days = ?

Solution:

Number of half lives passes during 140 days:

Number of half lives  = T elapsed / Half lives

Number of half lives  = 140 days / 35 days

Number of half lives  = 4

Amount left:

At time zero = 610 g

At first half life = 610 g/2 = 305 g

At second half life = 305 g/2 = 152.5 g

At 3rd half life = 152.5 g/2 = 76.25 g

At 4th half life = 76.25 g /2 =38.125 g

Amount left after 140 days is 38.125 g.

Include a map with points where neon can be found.
nalin [4]
Here is some information: "Neon is a chemical element with symbol Ne and atomic number 10. It is in group 18 of the periodic table. Neon is a colorless, odorless, inert monatomic gas under standard conditions, with about two-thirds the density of air. It was discovered in 1898 as one of the three residual rare inert elements remaining in dry air, after nitrogen, oxygen, argon and carbon dioxide were removed. Neon was the second of these three rare gases to be discovered, and was immediately recognized as a new element from its bright red emission spectrum. The name neon is derived from the Greek word, νέον, neuter singular form of νέος, meaning new. Neon is chemically inert and forms no uncharged chemical compounds. The compounds of neon include ionic molecules, molecules held together by van der Waals forces and clathrates."

Also: "Neon is rare on Earth, found in the Earth's atmosphere at 1 part in 55,000, or 18.2 ppm by volume (this is about the same as the molecule or mole fraction), or 1 part in 79,000 of air by mass."

Also I only found one if that is okay but here it is: It is the place where it is a city and most people find most neon there.

Oxidation number of Al(OH)4
Kobotan [32]

Explanation:

The sum of all oxidation numbers in a neutral compound is zero. The sum of all oxidation numbers in a polyatomic (many-atom) ion is equal to the charge on the ion. The oxidation number of oxygen in a compound is usually –2. The oxidation state of hydrogen in a compound is usually +1.

The oxidation state of Al in Al(OH)

4

−

x+4(+1−2)=−1

∴x=+3

The oxidation state of Mn in MnO

2

y+2(−2)=0

∴y=+4
