<u>Answer:</u> The time required will be 19.18 years
<u>Explanation:</u>
All the radioactive reactions follows first order kinetics.
The equation used to calculate half life for first order kinetics:

We are given:

Putting values in above equation, we get:

Rate law expression for first order kinetics is given by the equation:
![k=\frac{2.303}{t}\log\frac{[A_o]}{[A]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=k%3D%5Cfrac%7B2.303%7D%7Bt%7D%5Clog%5Cfrac%7B%5BA_o%5D%7D%7B%5BA%5D%7D)
where,
k = rate constant = 
t = time taken for decay process = ?
= initial amount of the reactant = 2 g
[A] = amount left after decay process = (2 - 0.5) = 1.5 g
Putting values in above equation, we get:

Hence, the time required will be 19.18 years

Explanation:
"Non-zero digits are always significant. Any zeros between two significant digits are significant. A final zero or trailing zeros in the decimal portion ONLY are significant."
Answer:
x(t) = −39e
−0.03t + 40.
Explanation:
Let V (t) be the volume of solution (water and
nitric acid) measured in liters after t minutes. Let x(t) be the volume of nitric acid
measured in liters after t minutes, and let c(t) be the concentration (by volume) of
nitric acid in solution after t minutes.
The volume of solution V (t) doesn’t change over time since the inflow and outflow
of solution is equal. Thus V = 200 L. The concentration of nitric acid c(t) is
c(t) = x(t)
V (t)
=
x(t)
200
.
We model this problem as
dx
dt = I(t) − O(t),
where I(t) is the input rate of nitric acid and O(t) is the output rate of nitric acid,
both measured in liters of nitric acid per minute. The input rate is
I(t) = 6 Lsol.

=
120 Lnit.
100 min
= 1.2 Lnit./min.
The output rate is
O(t) = (6 Lsol./min)c(t) = 6 Lsol.
1 min
·
x(t) Lnit.
200 Lsol.
=
3x(t) Lnit.
100 min
= 0.03 x(t) Lnit./min.
The equation is then
dx
dt = 1.2 − 0.03x,
or
dx
dt + 0.03x = 1.2, (1)
which is a linear equation. The initial condition condition is found in the following
way:
c(0) = 0.5% = 5 Lnit.
1000 Lsol.
=
x(0) Lnit.
200 Lsol.
.
Thus x(0) = 1.
In Eq. (1) we let P(t) = 0.03 and Q(t) = 1.2. The integrating factor for Eq. (1) is
µ(t) = exp Z
P(t) dt
= exp
0.03 Z

The solution is

= Ce−0.03t + 40.
The constant is found using x(t) = 1:
x(0) = Ce−0.03(0) + 40 = C + 40 = 1.
Thus C = −39, and the solution is
x(t) = −39e
−0.03t + 40.
