<u>Answer:</u> The number of moles of calcium metal required is 2.0 moles.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Moles of water reacted = 4.0 moles

The given chemical reaction follows:

Ca+2H_2O\rightarrow Ca(OH)_2+H_2

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of water is reacted with 1 mole of calcium metal

So, 4.0 moles of water will react with = \frac{1}{2}\times 4.0=2.0mol of calcium metal

Hence, the number of moles of calcium metal required is 2.0 moles.

Since the given equation is balanced, we know the Ca and the H2O are in a 1:2 ratio (to see the ratio, look at the coefficients in front of the molecules). Then, there are a few different ways to solve the problem. I am going to show you how to solve it using a ratio of moles of Ca/moles of H2O: x/1=4/2. First, you cross multiply to get 2x=4. Then, you divide both sides by 2 to get x=2 moles of Ca.

If the half-life of a radioisotope is 10,000 years, the amount remaining after 20,000 years is
Cloud [144]

Answer:

Considering the half-life of 10,000 years, after 20,000 years we will have a fourth of the remaining amount.

Explanation:

The half-time is the time a radioisotope takes to decay and lose half of its mass. Therefore, we can make the following scheme to know the amount remaining after a period of time:

Time_________________ Amount

t=0_____________________x

t=10,000 years____________x/2

t=20,000 years___________x/4

During the first 10,000 years the radioisotope lost half of its mass. After 10,000 years more (which means 2 half-lives), the remaining amount also lost half of its mass. Therefore, after 20,000 years, the we will have a fourth of the initial amount.
