Answer:
Half life is 6 years.
Explanation:
T½ = In2 / λ
Where λ = decay constant.
But N = No * e^-λt
Where N = final mass after a certain period of time
No = initial mass
T = time
N = 0.625g
No = 10g
t = 24 years
N = No* e^-λt
N / No = e^-λt
λ = -( 1 / t) In N / No (inverse of e is In. Check logarithmic rules)
λ = -(1 / 24) * In (0.625/10)
λ = -0.04167 * In(0.0625)
λ = -0.04167 * (-2.77)
λ = 0.1154
T½ = In2 / λ
T½ = 0.693 / 0.1154
T½ = 6.00 years.
The half life of radioactive cobalt-60 is 6 years
Explanation of the strategy: 1) calculate the mass of water and convert to number of moles, 2) convert the mass of anhydrous CuSO4 to moles, and, 3)calculate the mole ratio of water to CuSO4 anhydrous
1) Calculate the mass of water:
mass of water = mass of the hydrate CuSO4 - mass of the anhydrous compound
mass of water = 12.98 g - 9.70 g = 3.28g
2) Calculate the number of moles of water
number of moles = mass in grams / molar mass
molar mass of water = 18.01 g/mol
number of moles of water = 3.28 g / 18.01 g/mol = 0.182 mol
3) Calculate the number of moles of CuSO4 anhydrous
number of moles = mass in grams / molar mass
molar mass of Cu SO4 = 159.6 g/mol
number of moles of CuSO4 = 9.70g / 159.6 g/mol = 0.0608 moles
4) Calculate the ratio moles of water / moles of CuSO4
ratio = moles of water / moles of CuSO4 = 0.182 / 0.0608 = 2.99 ≈ 3
Therefore the molecular formula is CuSO4 . 3H2O
Name: copper(II) sulfate trihydrate.
In a place with no gravity
Explanation:
Weight is a force exerted by a body in the presence of gravity.
Weight = mass x gravity
Without gravity, there is no force of weight. The more the gravity, the more the weight of a body.
A body will experience weightlessness in a place without no gravity.
Therefore, one will experience the least weight in a place without the pull of gravity.

Answer:
cellular respiration
Explanation:
All exergonic processes produced in the cell, through which substances oxidize and chemical energy is released, are grouped under the name of cellular respiration, but to break down an organic molecule the cells employ, mainly dehydrogenations that can be carried carried out in the presence or absence of atmospheric O2 oxygen. There are therefore two types of breathing: aerobic respiration and anaerobic respiration. The latter also called fermentation.
Aerobic respiration (oxidative phosphorylation)
- Use molecular O2.
- It degrades glucose to CO2 and H2O
- Exergonic
- Recovers about 50% of chemical energy
- Present in most organisms.
- It uses enzymes located in the mitochondria.
Answer:
A) Q + XZ = X + QZ is a single displacement reaction.
B) Q + Z = QZ is a synthesis reaction
C) QT = Q + T is a decomposition reaction
D) QT + XZ = QZ + XT is double replacement reaction.
Explanation:
A) Q + XZ = X + QZ
This is a single displacement reaction because it is one in which one element is substituted for another one in a compound. In this case X is substituted for Q.
B) Q + Z = QZ
This is a synthesis reaction because Q and z combine to form a single product QZ.
C) QT = Q + T
This is a decomposition reaction because the compound QT breaks down to form 2 simpler substances Q and T.
D) QT + XZ = QZ + XT
Thus is a double replacement reaction because QT and XZ have exchanged cations to form new compounds QZ and XT
