Pretty sure it's b but not an definitely
Half life is the time taken by a radioactive isotope to decay by half its original mass. In this case, the halflife of the radioactive isotope is 5000 years.
Initially the mass is 100 %; thus the mass that will be left will be given by;
New mass = Original mass × (1/2)^n where n is the number of half lives;
n = 10000/5000 = 2
New mass = 100% ×(1/2)^2
= 100 % × 1/4
= 25%
Therefore; the mass left after 10000 years is 25% or 1/4 of the original mass.
Answer:
C.) 35
Explanation:
The mass is made up of the total protons and neutrons in an atom. Protons and neutrons both have a mass of 1 amu. Electrons are not included in this measurement because they have an insignificant mass (practically 0).
(17 protons x 1 amu) + (18 neutrons x 1 amu) = 35 amu
Therefore, if an atom contains 17 protons and 18 neutrons, the mass should be 35 amu.
