<h3>Answer:</h3>
18.75 grams
<h3>Explanation:</h3>
- Half-life refers to the time taken by a radioactive material to decay by half of the original mass.
- In this case, the half-life of element X is 10 years, which means it takes 10 years for a given mass of the element to decay by half of its original mass.
- To calculate the amount that remained after decay we use;
Remaining mass = Original mass × (1/2)^n, where n is the number of half-lives
Number of half-lives = Time for the decay ÷ Half-life
= 40 years ÷ 10 years
= 4
Therefore;
Remaining mass = 300 g × (1/2)⁴
= 300 g × 1/16
= 18.75 g
Hence, a mass of 300 g of an element X decays to 18.75 g after 40 years.
The solid compound, K2SO4 contains a cation called K+ and an anion called SO42-. In this case, there are 2 atoms of potassium, 1 atom of sulfur and 4 moles of oxygen. The compound also contains ionic bonds because of the composing non-metals and metal.
Answer:
The same genes or slightly different versions of the same gene can be found on each chromosome in a pair. They form a line and split off bits of themselves, which they barter with one another. In sexual reproduction, crossing over is the first method that genes are shuffled to develop genetic variation.
