The radio active decay of a substance or any chemical is measured in half-lives because of the period where there are significant changes in the amount of the chemicals. The amount of chemical is almost halved in the next period as is suggested by the given graph.

What examples does<br> - Making Materials<br> - Moving Materials<br> - Removing Waste
Sidana [21]

Answer:

You remove waste as a gas (carbon dioxide), as a liquid (urine and sweat), and as a solid. Excretion is the process of removing wastes and excess water from the body. Recall that carbon dioxide travels through the blood and is transferred to the lungs where it is exhaled

Moving Materials include aluminum foil tape, shipping tape, box tape and duct tape. Moving labels take the guesswork out of the moving process.

Use the ideal-gas law to estimate the number of air molecules in your physics lab room, assuming all the air is N2. Assume a roo
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

4.13×10²⁷ molecules of N₂ are in the room

Explanation:

ideal gases Law → P . V = n . R . T

Pressure . volume = moles . Ideal Gases Constant . T° K

T°K = T°C + 273 → 20°C + 273 = 293K

Let's determine the volume of the room:

18 ft . 18 ft . 18ft = 5832 ft³

We convert the ft³ to L → 5832 ft³ . 28.3L / 1 ft³ = 165045.6 L

1 atm .  165045.6 L = n . 0.082 L.atm/mol.K . 293K

(1 atm .  165045.6 L) / 0.082 L.atm/mol.K . 293K = n

6869.4 moles of N₂ are in the room

If we want to find out the number of molecules we multiply the moles by NA

6869.4 mol . 6.02×10²³ = 4.13×10²⁷ molecules

How many molecules are in 165 g of carbon dioxide?
devlian [24]

The molar mass of CO2 is 44 grams per mole.

165 grams / 44 grams per mole of CO2 = 3.75 moles CO2

Using Avogadro’s law where 1 mole of substance equals 6.023 x 10^23 molecules

3.75 moles CO2 (6.023 x 10^23 molecules /mole) = 2.26 x 10^24 molecules CO2
