Hello!

The half-life is the time of half-disintegration, it is the time in which half of the atoms of an isotope disintegrate.

We have the following data:

mo (initial mass) = 53.3 mg

m (final mass after time T) = ? (in mg)

x (number of periods elapsed) = ?

P (Half-life) = 10.0 minutes

T (Elapsed time for sample reduction) = 25.9 minutes

Let's find the number of periods elapsed (x), let us see:

T = x*P

25.9 = x*10.0

25.9 = 10.0\:x

10.0\:x = 25.9

x = \dfrac{25.9}{10.0}

\boxed{x = 2.59}

Now, let's find the final mass (m) of this isotope after the elapsed time, let's see:

m =  \dfrac{m_o}{2^x}

m =  \dfrac{53.3}{2^{2.59}}

m \approx \dfrac{53.3}{6.021}

\boxed{\boxed{m \approx 8.85\:mg}}\end{array}}\qquad\checkmark

I Hope this helps, greetings ... DexteR! =)

In a solution, when the suspension of one kind of molecules is blended or dissolved with another, the ________ properties are no
Sidana [21]

Answer:

chemical

Explanation:

The chemical properties determine the identity of a substance and are not changed when there is no reaction. In the solution, what takes place is a physical change, which is a change of state (for example, going from solid to aqueous form).

What is the mass of 3.20x10^23 formula units of iron (III) oxide (Fe2O3)?
yaroslaw [1]

The mass of iron (III) oxide (Fe2O3) : 85.12 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

3.20x10²³ formula units

Required

The mass

Solution

1 mole = 6.02.10²³ particles  

Can be formulated :

N = n x No

N = number of particles

n = mol

No = 6.02.10²³ = Avogadro's number

mol of Fe₂O₃ :

\tt n=\dfrac{3.2.10^{23}}{6.02.10^{23}}=0.532

mass of Fe₂O₃ (MW=160 g/mol)

\tt mass=mol\times MW=0.532\times 160=85.12~g
