Answer:
1 g
Explanation:
The half-life of Am-242 (16 h) is the time it takes for half of it to disappear.
We can make a table of the mass left after each half-life.

The mass remaining after 48 h is 1 g.
The question is cut off in the picture
Explanation:
Lithium diisopropylamide (LDA) is used in many organic synthesis and is a strong base. It is prepared by the acid base reaction of N,N-diisopropylamine ( [(CH₃)₂CH]₂NH ) and butyllithium ( Li⁺⁻CH₂CH₂CH₂CH₃ ).
The equation is show below as:
[(CH₃)₂CH]₂NH + Li⁺⁻CH₂CH₂CH₂CH₃ ⇒ [(CH₃)₂CH]₂N⁻Li⁺ + CH₃CH₂CH₂CH₃
N,N-diisopropylamine ( [(CH₃)₂CH]₂NH ) is a weaker acid and hence, LDA ( [(CH₃)₂CH]₂N⁻Li⁺ ) is stronger base. (Weaker acid has stronger conjugate base)
Butyllithium ( Li⁺⁻CH₂CH₂CH₂CH₃ ) is a very strong base and hence, butane ( CH₃CH₂CH₂CH₃ ) is a very weak acid. (Strong base has weaker conjugate acid)

2. Bias. Sources may have hidden agenda, personal discrimination conscience or unconscious and a limited view of the short term, long term effects.</span>
