Answer:

half-life=T= 36.9 years

Explanation:

As we know that

N ( t ) = N ( 0 ) ⋅ 0.5 ^(t/ T )

N ( 0 ) =the number of atoms you start with=20 gram

and  N ( t )=  the number of atoms left=0.625 grams

after a certain time=t=184.5 years

T=half life of a nuclide=?

Putting value in above equation we get

half-life=T= 36.9 years

Which two changes would make this reaction reactant-favored?
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Two changes would make this reaction reactant-favored

C. Increasing the temperature

D. Reducing the pressure

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Reaction

2H₂ + O₂ ⇒ 2H₂0 + energy

Required

Two changes would make this reaction reactant-favored

Solution

The formation of H₂O is an exothermic reaction (releases heat)

If the system temperature is raised, then the equilibrium reaction will reduce the temperature by shifting the reaction in the direction that requires heat (endotherms). Conversely, if the temperature is lowered, then the equilibrium shifts to a reaction that releases heat (exothermic)  

While on the change in pressure, then the addition of pressure, the reaction will shift towards a smaller reaction coefficient  

in the above reaction: the number of coefficients on the left is 3 (2 + 1) while the right is 2

As the temperature rises, the equilibrium will shift towards the endothermic reaction, so the reaction shifts to the left towards H₂ + O₂( reactant-favored)

And reducing the pressure, then the reaction shifts to the left H₂ + O₂( reactant-favored)⇒the number of coefficients is greater

To what is wax susceptible
maks197457 [2]
Wax is definitely susceptible to heat and with the application of heat such as burning a candle, the solid wax gets converted into a liquid. This fact can be used to remove ear wax also actually using hollow candles that will melt the ear wax and allow it to be drained out of the ear.

Which property of a liquid increases with increasing temperature?
Nina [5.8K]
When temperature of liquid is increased, liquid gets thinner and thinner and hence it's viscosity decreases.

Density = mass/volume.

As we increase the temperature, volume of the liquid starts to increase but mass of the liquid remains constant. As a result, density of liquid decreases.

Hope this helps!
