a 32 gram radioactive sample has a half-life of 2 days how much of the original sample remains after 6 days

1 answer:

3 0

First, we will get the "n", the number of half lives, it is the elapsed time over the half life. In the problem, the time is measured in days, so we have

6/2 = 3

to get the ending amount of radioactive sample, we have

32g x (1/2)³ = 4 grams of radioactive sample ⇒ the amount left after 6 days

Sindrei [870]

You have to use the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation. Keep in mind that because the Pka is given the equation changes form slightly:

PH = Pka + log[acid/base]

Step 1 (Figure out the concentrations):

0.282 M of Acid (C6H5OOH) - 0.150 M = 0.132 M of acid
0.282 M of Base (C6HCOO) + 0.150 M = 0.432 M of bas3

Step 2 (Plug into equation):

PH = Pka + log[acid/base]
PH = 4.20 + log[0.132 M/0.432 M]

PH = 3.69

solniwko [45]

The solid form of a substance is usually more dense than its liquid and gaseous forms. Similarly the liquid form is usually more dense than the gaseous form. Ice floating in water is an exception that breaks the general density rule. So option “A” is the correct option in regards to the given question. In case of ice formation, actually the density of water decreases by about 9%. This is the main reason behind ice floating in water. Pure water has the maximum density at 4 degree centigrade.
