andrey2020 [161]3 years ago
5 0
Cs -137 has a half life of about 30 years. If 60 years pass, there is two half lives passed so 1/2 * 1/2= 1/4. Take 1/4 and multiply it with the mass given:
(1/4)*20mg=5mg left

Water molecules have __________ than molecules of similar size, such as ammonia and methane, reflecting its capacity to absorb l
Flura [38]

Given what we know, the ability of water to absorb more heat than the other substances mentioned is a reflection of its high boiling point.

<h3>What do we mean by boiling point?</h3>

This is the temperature at which the substance boils, and subsequently evaporates. Having a higher boiling point means that the substance will be able to absorb much more heat than that of a substance with a lower boiling point.

Therefore, Water molecules have a higher boiling point than molecules of similar size, such as ammonia and methane, reflecting its capacity to absorb large amounts of heat.

If 0.250 mol of hydrogen gas occupies 0.333L at 20.0c what is the pressure in atmospheres?
maria [59]

Answer: The pressure will be 18.05 atm.

Explanation: Expression for ideal gas equation is :

PV=nRT

where,

P = Pressure of the gas = ? atm

V = Volume of the gas = 0.333L

n = Number of moles of gas = 0.250 moles

R = Universal gas constant = 0.082057\text{ L atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}

T = temperature of the gas = 20°C = (273 + 20)K = 293K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

P\times 0.333L=0.250mol\times 0.082057\text{ L atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 293K

P = 18.05 atm

When a pot of water has been boiling vigorously for several minutes, the bubbles that emerge from the liquid water are composed
kumpel [21]
Well, water is composed H2 gas and O2 gas in a 2:1 ratio, and the bubbles that form at the bottom of the pan is just the water changing from a liquid to a gas, and im pretty sure its water vapor that comes out of the pan. I hope that helped??? :)
