Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

AT = A0 e(-T/H)

... where A0 is the starting activity, AT is the activity at some time T, and H is the half-life, in units of T.

Substituting what we know, we get...

0.71 = (1) e(-T/5730)

Solve for T...

loge(0.71) = -T/5730

T = -loge(0.71)(5730)

T = 1962 (conservatively rounded, T = 2000)

similarly for all

for aboriginal charcoal

0.28 = (1) e(-T/5730)

Solve for T...

loge(0.28) = -T/5730

T = -loge(0.28)(5730)

T = 7294 (conservatively rounded, T = 7000)

for mayan headdress

0.89 = (1) e(-T/5730)

Solve for T...

loge(0.89) = -T/5730

T = -loge(0.89)(5730)

T = 667 (conservatively rounded, T = 700)

for neanderthal

0.05 = (1) e(-T/5730)

Solve for T...

loge(0.05) = -T/5730

T = -loge(0.05)(5730)

T = 17165 (conservatively rounded, T = 17000)

What would barium do to obtain a noble gas structure? gain 2 electrons lose 2 electrons gain 6 electrons lose 6 electrons
Tema [17]

Answer:

Lose two electrons.

Explanation:

Barium is present in group 2.

It is alkaline earth metal.

Its atomic number is 56.

Its electronic configuration is Ba₅₆ = [Xe] 6s².

In order to attain the noble gas electronic configuration it must loses its two valance electrons.

When barium loses it two electron its electronic configuration will equal to the Xenon.

The atomic number of xenon is 54 so barium must loses two electrons to becomes equal to the xenon.

How does the polarity of water make water more cohesive than other liquids?
MatroZZZ [7]
Cohesion holds hydrogen bonds together to create surface tension on water. Since water is attracted to other molecules, adhesive forces pull the water toward other molecules.
