<u>Answer:</u>
<em>The situation given here is imaginary such that the life of Rock has to be found using the half-life of the element lokium that has been found inside the rock. </em>
<u>Explanation:</u>
Half-life of any material is the amount of time taken by that particular material to decay. Now the amount of lokium found in rock can show after how many half-lives this amount has been left out.
The time elapsed will be log (L) atoms X half-life.
Answer:
a) Volume of vial= 9.626cm3
b) Mass of vial with water = 62.92 g
Explanation:
a) Mass of empty vial = 55.32 g
Mass of Vial + Hg = 185.56 g
Therefore,

Density of Hg = 13.53 g/cm3

b) Volume of water = volume of vial = 9.626 cm3
Density of water = 0.997 g/cm3

Answer:
Nitrogen
Explanation:
The element nitrogen cannot be a product in the given reaction.
The reaction is;
HCl + CaCO₃
According to the law of conservation of matter, "matter is neither created nor destroyed in the cause of a chemical reaction".
The law suggests that, in a chemical reaction, we end up with the same species we started with. Although due to rearrangement of bonds, new compounds can form;
Starting atoms
H
Cl
Ca
O
These species will also be found in the product.
