Half-life is the duration needed for a compound to decay into half of its initial weight. In this case, the initial weight is 100gram. The calculation for the final weight should be:

final weight= initial weight * (1/2)^(duration/half-life)
final weight= 100 grams * (1/2)^(20days/5 days)
final weight= 100 grams * (1/2)^(4)
final weight= 100 * 1/16= 100/16 gram= 6.25 grams

Water is a polar molecule, meaning the electrons that are shared between the atoms aren't shared equally so oxygen attracts more
amm1812

Answer:

Magnet with a positive and a negative pole

Explanation:

A great analogy to demonstrate what a polar molecule looks like is to imagine a magnet. A magnet has one positively charged end and one negatively charged end, two poles, that is.

Imagine that we have a magnet of a shape of a prism (water molecule has a bent shape). The two base vertices of the face of the triangle are positively charged, that's because hydrogen is less electronegative than oxygen and, hence, the two hydrogen atoms are partially positively charged in a water molecule.

Oxygen is more electronegative than hydrogen meaning it has a greater electron-withdrawing force, so electrons are closer to oxygen within the O-H bonds. Oxygen, as a result, becomes partially negatively charged, so it's our negative pole of the magnet.

For each solution, determine the p-values for each ion indicated. A solution that is 0.493 M in NaCl and 0.314 M in NH 4 Cl .
miss Akunina [59]

Complete Question:

Ions to calculate the p-values: Na⁺, Cl⁻, and NH₄⁺

Answer:

pNa = 0.307

pCl = 0.093

pNH₄ = 0.503

Explanation:

The p-value is calculated by the antilog of the concentration of the substance of interest. For example, pH = -log[H⁺]. Thus, first, let's find the ions concentration.

Both substances are salts that solubilize completely, thus, by the solution reactions:

NaCl → Na⁺ + Cl⁻

NH₄Cl → NH₄⁺ + Cl⁻

So, for both reactions the stoichiometry is 1:1:1 and the concentration of the ions is equal to the concentration of the salts.

[Na⁺] = 0.493 M

[Cl⁻] = 0.493 + 0.314 = 0.807 M

[NH₄⁺] = 0.314 M

The p-values are:

pNa = -log[Na⁺] = -log(0.493) = 0.307

pCl = -log[Cl⁻] = -log(0.807) = 0.093

pNH₄ = -log[NH₄⁺] = -log(0.314) = 0.503

An isotope has 15 protons, 16 neutrons, and 15 electrons. What is the isotopic notation of the isotope
VikaD [51]

Answer:

^{31}_{15}P is the isotopic notation of the atom

Explanation:

The isotope notation is:

^a_bX

<em>Where a is the mass number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons</em>

<em>b is atomic number = Number of protons</em>

The atomic number define the nature of the atom, the element with atomic number = 15 is phosphorus, P:

^a_bP

a = 15 protons + 16 neutrons = 31

b = 15

^{31}_{15}P is the isotopic notation of the atom.
