Answer:

44 years will take for 10 grams of Actinium to decay until there were only 2.5 grams.

Explanation:

The half life it tell you about the time in which half of the quantity of the isotope will decay.

time (years)          quantity of isotope (grams)

Which type of substance ionizes completely and creates hydronium ions when dissolved in water?
maw [93]

Answer:

Strong acid

Explanation:

An acid is a substance that interacts with water to produce excess hydroxonium ions in an aqueous solution.

Hydroxonium ions are formed as a result of the chemical bonding between the oxygen of water molecules and the protons released by the acid due to its ionisation. This makes aqueous solution of acids conduct electricity.

A strong acid is one that ionizes almost completely. Examples are:

1. Hydrochloric acid

2. Tetraoxosulphate (VI) acid

3. Trioxonitrate (V) acid

4. Hydroiodic acid

5. Hydrobromic acid

Answer :

Charles's Law : It is defined as the volume is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure and number of moles.

Mathematically,

V\propto T

                                Boiling water bath        Cool bath 1       Cool bath 2

Temperature (⁰C)                  99                              17                       2

Temperature (K)(T)    273+99=372             273+17=290      273+2=275

Volume of water                  0.0                             27.0                34.0

in cool flask (mL)

Volume of water=              135.8                           135.8               135.8

Air in flask (mL)

Volume of air                    135.8                           108.8               101.8

in cool flask (V)

\frac{V}{T}                                \frac{135.8}{372}=0.365             \frac{108.8}{290}=0.375         \frac{101.8}{275}=0.370

The graph volume versus temperature for a gas is shown below.

A charged particle made up of several non-metallic atoms joined together is a(n) Select one:
andriy [413]
It would be B. A polyatomic ion. Poly means many, while atomic refers to atoms more specifically the nature or category of these atoms is that they are non metallic ones, or basically nonmetal atoms. All of these nonmetallic atoms are joined together through covalent bonds and altogether they possess a unique charge. An example of a polyatomic ion would be sulphate or (SO4)^-3.
