The number of hours required : 37.2 hours
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
⁴²K (potassium -42)
Required
The number of hours
Solution
The atomic nucleus can experience decay into 2 particles or more due to the instability of its atomic nucleus.
Usually, radioactive elements have an unstable atomic nucleus.
Based on Table N(attached), the half-life for ⁴²K is 12.4 hours, which means half of a sample of ⁴²K will decay in 12.4 hours
For three half-life periods :
The correct options would be
OPTIONS 1 & 2
The state which a person lives in has nothing to do with the experiment, although it would most likely make it easier to observe. Wheter they develop heart disease or not is the results of the experiment.
Answer:
4.43 g of Oxygen
Explanation:
As shown in Chemical Formula, one mole of Aluminium Sulfate [Al₂(SO₄)₃] contains;
2 Moles of Aluminium
3 Moles of Sulfur
12 Moles of Oxygen
Also, the Molar Mass of Aluminium Sulfate is 342.15 g/mol. It means,
342.15 g ( 1 mole) of Al₂(SO₄)₃ contains = 192 g (12 mole) of O
So,
7.9 g of Al₂(SO₄)₃ will contain = X g of O
Solving for X,
X = (7.9 g × 192 g) ÷ 342.15 g
X = 4.43 g of Oxygen
Answer:a weak acid and a weak base
Explanation:
One thing to notice in the question is, we are asked about molecular oxygen that has formula O2 not atomic oxygen O.
As we are asked about molecular oxygen, we will answer the question in terms of number of molecules that are present in 16 grams of molecular oxygen.
To get the number of molecules present in 16 grams of O2, we will use the formula:
No. of molecules = no. of moles x Avogadro's number (NA)----- eq 1)
As we know:
The number of moles = mass/ molar mass of molecule
Here we have been given mass already, 16 grams and the molar mass of O2 is 32 grams.
Putting the values in above formula:
= 16/32
= 0.5 moles
Putting the number of moles and Avogadro's number (6.02 * 10^23) in eq 1
No. of molecules = 0.5 x 6.02 * 10^23
=3.01 x 10^23 molecules
or 301,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 molecules
This means that 16 grams of 3.01 x 10^23 molecules of oxygen.
Hope it helps!
