The half-life of Plutonium−239, t1/2 is 2.41 × 10⁴<span> yrs
time taken to reach tolerable level = seven half-lives
= 7 x t1/2
= 7 x </span>2.41 × 10⁴ yrs
= 168700 yrs
= 1.687 x 10⁵ yrs
Hence, the period of time that <span>Plutonium-239 must be stored is </span>1.687 x 10⁵ years.
570/8.5=67.0 58... you only have to take the natural part, si the answer is 67 students
Answer:
There is more space between gas particles than the size of the particles.
Explanation:
This scenario can be understand by taking a very simple example. As we know that 1 mole of any gas at standard temperature and pressure occupy 22.4 liters of volume. Lets take Hydrogen gas and Oxygen gas, 1 mole of each gas will occupy same volume. Why it is so? Why same volume although Oxygen is 16 times more heavier? This is because the space between gas molecules is very large. Approximately the distance between gas molecules is 300 times greater than their own diameter from its neighbor molecules.
Answer:
reactions between air, water and minerals, chemicals in rain water
Answer: 14943.5 J
Explanation:
The quantity of heat energy (Q) required to raise the temperature of a substance depends on its Mass (M), specific heat capacity (C) and change in temperature (Φ)
Thus, Q = MCΦ
Given that,
Q = ?
Mass of water = 55.0g
C = 4.18 J/g°C
Φ = 65.0°C
Then, Q = MCΦ
Q = 55.0g x 4.18 J/g°C x 65.0°C
Q = 14943.5 J
Thus, 14943.5 joules of heat is needed to raise the temperature of water.
