The rate of radioactive decay for a particle radioactive element is constant. 
lakkis [162]4 years ago
3 0

Answer:

correct answer is option C (constant)

Explanation:

Radioactive decay of radioactive element occur at known rates, the unit of radioactive decay is called half-life. The amount of time a radioactive element takes for half of the parent atoms to decay is known as half-life of a radioactive element

During Radioactive decay radioactive elements emits a particle. It's impossible to predict exactly when a given atom of a substance will emit a particular particle, but the decay rate of a radioactive element over a long period of time is constant.

By radioactive decay scientist can determine the age of that particular element. If radioactive decay will vary than age cannot be determined from radioactive decay.

Now imagine that you're waiting for your soup to cool down, and you leave it on the counter while you go do your homework. Your
Vlad [161]

Explanation:

Generally, heat flows from a hot environment to a cold (lesser temperature) environment. In this case, the soup is the hot environment and the air is the cold temperature.

Heat would continue to flow from one environment to another until thermal equilibrium is reached. At this thermal equilibrium, both environments would have the same temperature.

4g of calcium metal is burned in oxygen of air to form calcium oxide. (Ca = 40, O= 16, at STP: 32g of oxygen has 22.4L)
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

m=4 g Ca

M=ArCa+ArO=56 g/mol

Ca+O2-2CaO

nCa= m/M= 4/40=0.1 moles of Ca

the ratio of moles: 1 mole Ca:2 moles CaO

0.1 moles Ca =0.2 moles CaO

n=m/M

m=n×M

m=0.2×56=11.2 g CaO

23. Enzyme A, as the temperature increases, the rate of reaction goes down. However, Enzyme B as the temperature goes up the reaction goes up.

24. Enzyme B is more active in a human cell, the reaction is what you want and everytime the temperature goes up in enzyme B the reaction goes up.
