Answer:
there are 118 elements on the periodic table :)
Answer:
<em><u>Question 1.</u></em><em> → </em>The amount remained is 15.625 g after 5 half-lives (30 hours).
<u><em>Question 2. </em></u><em>→ </em>mass % of water =41.4 %
<u><em>Question 3. </em></u><em>→ </em>C. 64 grams.
Explanation:
<em><u>Question 1. </u></em>
It is known that the decay of isotopes and radioactive material obeys first order kinetics.
Also, it is clear that in first order decay the half-life time is independent of the initial concentration.
Thus, 30 hours represent (30/6) 5 half-lives.
500 g →(first 1/2 life) 250 g →(second 1/2 life) 125 g →(third 1/2 life) 62.5 g →(fourth 1/2 life) 31.25 g →(fifth 1/2 life) 15.625 g
So, The amount remained is 15.625 g after 5 half-lives (30 hours).
<u><em>Question 2.</em></u>
- The formula of Copper (II) Fluoride tetra hydrate is CuF₂.4H₂O.
- the molar mass of Copper (II) Fluoride tetra hydrate is the sum of the atomic masses o each element.
- molar mass of 1 mol of CuF₂.4H₂O = 64 + 2*(19) + 8* (1) + 4*(16) = 174 g/mol.
- molar mass of 4 mol of H₂O = 8*(1) + 4*(16) = 72 g/mol
- 1 mol of Copper (II) Fluoride tetra hydrate → 4 mol H₂O
mass % of water = (mass of 4 mol of H₂O) / (mass of 1 mol of CuF₂.4H₂O ) *100 = (72 /174) *100 = 41.4 %
<em><u>Question 3. </u></em>
<u>Mass percentage</u> is defined as the mass of a solute divided by the total mass of the solution, multiplied by 100
- mass percent = ( mass of solute / mass of solution) *100
∴ 16 = ( mass of solute / 400 g) *100
mass of solute = (16* 400)/ 100 = 64 g.
So the right choice is C. 64 grams.

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
<em>All the above</em>
Workers at construction sites often reduce erosion by;
- <em>Moving excess sediment back to its original location
</em>
- <em>Planting trees
</em>
- <em>Spraying water on bare soil</em>
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
- Soil erosion is a naturally occurring process which involves the wearing away of the topsoil by natural forces such as wind, water or other forces associated with farming.
- <em><u>Construction of roads and buildings results to large amounts of soil erosion around the world. It is therefore important to put measures that would help reduce soil erosion at construction sites</u></em>. These measures uses principals of soil control such as implementing sediment control, limiting soil exposure, reducing the runoff velocity, and modifying topography among others.
