If you have one kilogram of radionuclide, how much will remain after one half-life has passed?

If we start with 1 kg or 1000 g of radionuclide, after one half-life has passed, one-half of the original amount of radionuclide will remain. Therefore, 500 g of the radionuclide will remain. The half-life is the time it takes for a radioactive substance to decay to half its initial amount.

irinina [24]

If it has properties of metal and non metal it is considered a metalloid there are very few spots in which metalloids are located the spots I circled on a blank periodic tables are where the metalloids are located on an actual periodic table your only options are
boron(B) silicon(si) germanium(Ge) arsenic(As)antimony(Sb)tellurium(Te)astatine(At)those are the only places on the periodic table that has metalloids... I hope this helps

Chlorine has two naturally stable isotopes: 35Cl (34.968853 amu) and 37Cl (36.965903 amu). The natural abundance of each isotope

allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

35Cl ⇒ 34.968853 amu has an abundance of 30.05%

Explanation:

The molar mass of chlorine, (which is the average of all its naturally stable isotope masses), is 36.36575 amu.

There are 2 naturally stable isotopes, this means together they have an abundance of 100%

The isotopes are:

35Cl ⇒ 34.968853 amu has an abundance of X %

37Cl ⇒ 36.965903 amu has an abundance of Y %

X + Y = 100% OR X = 100% - Y

36.36575 = 34.968853X + 36.965903Y

36.36575 = 34.968853(1-Y) + 36.936.96590365903Y

36.36575 = 34.968853 -34.968853Y + 36.965903Y

1.396897 = 1.99705Y

Y = 0.699 = 69.95%

X = 100-69.9 = 30.05%

To control, we can plug in the following equation:

34.968853 * 0.3005 + 36.965903 * 0.6995 = 36.3658

This means

37Cl ⇒ 36.965903 amu has an abundance of 69.95 %

35Cl ⇒ 34.968853 amu has an abundance of 30.05%
