Explanation:

Mass of the strontium-90 present at initial stage= N_o=3 grams

Mass of the strontium-90 present after time t = N = q

The half life of strontium-90 = t_{1/2}=28.8 years

Decay constant = \lambda

\lambda =\frac{0.693}{t_{1/2}}=\frac{0.693}{28.8 years}=0.02406 years^{-1}

\ln N=\ln N_o -\lambda t

\ln q=\ln 3 - 0.02406 years^{-1}\times t

0.02406 years^{-1}\times t=\ln 3 - \ln q

0.02406 years^{-1}\times t=\ln \frac{3}{q}

t=41.50 \ln \frac{3}{q}

e^t=(\frac{3}{q})^{41.50}

From the above expression we can see that t and q are inversely related to each other.

What is the volume of an object with the mass of 7.9 grams in the density of 2.28g/ml.
Schach [20]

Answer:

3.7mL is the volume of the object

Explanation:

To convert the mass of any object to volume we must use density that is defined as the ratio between mass of the object and the space that is occupying. For an object that weighs 7.9g and the density is 2.28g/mL, the volume is:

7.9g * (1mL / 2.28mL) =

<h3>3.7mL is the volume of the object</h3>

How many atoms are in 1.75 mol CHCL3
vaieri [72.5K]

1 mol = 6.022 x 10²³ atoms

In order to find how many atoms, dimly multiply the amount of moles you have by 6.022 x 10²³ or Avogadro's number.

So you have 1.75 mol CHC1₃ x (6.022x10²³) = 1.05385 x 10²⁴ atoms of CHCl₃

But now you have to round because of the rules of significant figures so you get 1.05 x 10²⁴ atoms of CHCl₃
