How much radium-226 will remain from a 20 gram sample after 4800 years?
ra1l [238]

Answer:

2.5 g mass of Ra-226 will remain after 4800 years.

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of Ra-226 = 20 g

Sample remain after 4800 years = ?

Solution:

Half life of Ra-226 = 1600 years

Number of half lives passed = T elapsed / half life

Number of half lives passed = 4800 year / 1600 year

Number of half lives passed = 3

At time zero = 20 g

At first half life = 20 g/2 = 10 g

At 2nd half life = 10 g/2 = 5 g

At 3rd half life = 5 g/2 = 2.5 g

Thus, 2.5 g mass of Ra-226 will remain after 4800 years.

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

Relative molecular of the compound or infomation like vapour density, volume occupied by a known mass of its vapour at stp, etc

Explanation:

The molecular mass of a compound is twice its vapour density. We can find the molecular formula using the relationship below:

  •    Empirical formula is the simplest formula of a compound. It repeats itself "n" times to become a molecular formula i.e (EF)ₙ = MF...... n is the number of times the empirical formula presents in a mole of the compound.
  • Most times, n is a whole number like 1,2,3,.....
