Chemistry

LenaWriter [7]3 years ago

(1) 36 days is 8 half-life periods,
so 24mg becomes 24mg times (1/2)^8 = 24 mg/256 = 0.094 mg

(2) 9.6/1.2 = 8, which means three half-life periods went by.
At the end of 4.5 days, there were 4.8 mg
At the end of 9.0 days, there were 2.4 mg
At the end of 13.5 days, there were 1.2 mg

(3) The activity is proportional to the amount of radioactive material remaining,
so after two half-life periods, the activity should be 1/4 of what it originally was.
So the initial activity was probably 12.0 Ci

How does a heat affect the chemical reaction? ​
patriot [66]

Answer:

Increasing the temperature increases reaction rates because of the disproportionately large increase in the number of high energy collisions. It is only these collisions (possessing at least the activation energy for the reaction) which result in a reaction.

What happens when you put magnesium carbonate and diluted water
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

Magnesium carbonate doesn't dissolve in water, only acid, where it will effervesce (bubble).

Explanation:

 An insoluble metal carbonate reacts with a dilute acid to form a soluble salt. Magnesium carbonate, a white solid, and dilute sulfuric acid react to produce magnesium sulfate. Colourless magnesium sulfate heptahydrate crystals are obtained from this solution.
