1.1 / 2 = .7 --> 2.86 yrs

.7 / 2 = .45 —> 5.72 yrs

.45 / 2 = .225 —> 8.58 yrs

.225 / 2 = .1125 —> 11.44 yrs

So, for the sample of plutonium to reach .140 mg it should take a little less than 11.44 years.

Hope this helps

Consider the following ionic compounds: CdCO3, Na2S, PbSO4, (NH4)3PO4, and Hg2Cl2. Which compounds will be soluble when added to
Grace [21]

Answer:

a. Na₂S and (NH₄)₃PO₄ .

Explanation:

To know which salts are soluble we need to remember some <em>solubility rules</em>. And apply these as follows:

* All compounds of group 1 (Li⁺, Na⁺, K⁺, etc.) are soluble, Na₂S is soluble.

* All ammonium salts are soluble,

<h3>(NH₄)₃PO₄ is soluble.</h3>

* All Cl⁻, I⁻, Br⁻ are soluble except when are with Ag⁺, Hg₂²⁺, Pb²⁺, Hg₂Cl₂ is <em>insoluble</em>

* Carbonates are insoluble except those with group 1 or ammonium, CdCO₃ is <em>insoluble</em>

* All sulfates are soluble except those with Ca²⁺, Sr²⁺, Ba²⁺, Pb²⁺, Ag⁺. PbSO₄ is <em>insoluble. </em>

Right solution is:

<h3>a. Na₂S and (NH₄)₃PO₄ </h3>
