Answer: Hmmmmm that's crazy....
There are a couple of equations one could use for this type of problem, but I find the following to be the easiest to use and to understand.
Fraction remaining (FR) = 0.5n
n = number of half lives that have elapsed
In this problem, we need to find n and are given the FR, which is 1.56% or 0.0156 (as a fraction).
0.0156 = 0.5n
log 0.0156 = n log 0.5
-1.81 = -0.301 n
n = 6.0 half lives have elapsed

Just wanted to help. Hopefully it's correct wouldn't want to waster your time ;)
The answer is: Dividing the number of molecules in the sample by Avogadro's number.
The Avogadro’s number is the number of atoms in 12 grams of the isotope carbon-12 (¹²C).
Na is Avogadro number or Avogadro constant (the number of particles, in this example carbon, that are contained in the amount of substance given by one mole).
The Avogadro number has value 6.022·10²³ 1/mol in the International System of Units; Na = 6.022·10²³ 1/mol.
For example:
N(Ba) = 2.62·10²³; number of atoms of barium.
n(Ba) = N(Ba) ÷ Na.
n(Ba) = 1.3·10²⁴ ÷ 6.022·10²³ 1/mol.
n(Ba) = 2.158 mol; amount of substance of barium.
Answer:
1.76 g/mL
Explanation:
You need to find the volume. You can do this by subtracting the volume of the water and the rock by the volume of the water.
72.7 mL - 50 mL = 22.7 mL
Now that you have volume, divide the mass by the volume to find the density.
39.943 g/22.7 mL = 1.76 g/mL
