.2x350mg = 70mg which converts to .070g.
.35g/.070g = 5 tablets.

Answer:

5  tablets are required for you to take a 0.35 g dose of calcium.

Explanation:

The amount of calcium required = 0.35 g

Percentage of calcium by mass in calcium carbonate = 20%

Total mass of 1 tablet of multi-vitamin =350 mg = 0.35 g

let the number of tablet of multi-vitamin be x

Total mass of tablets = x × 0.35

\%=\frac{\text{Mass of an element}}{\text{Total mass of tablets}}\times 100

20\%=\frac{0.35 g}{x\times 0.350 g}\times 100

x = 5

5  tablets are required for you to take a 0.35 g dose of calcium.

What’s the correct IUPAC name for the compound shown here?
worty [1.4K]

Answer : The correct IUPAC name for the compound is, 2,2,4,5-tetramethyl-3-ethylhexane.

Explanation :

The basic rules for naming of hydrocarbons are :

First select the longest possible carbon chain.

The longest possible carbon chain should include the carbons of double or triple bonds.

The naming of alkane is done by adding the suffix -ane, alkene by adding the suffix -ene, alkyne by adding the suffix -yne.

If two or more similar alkyl groups are present in a compound, the prefixes di-, tri-, tetra- and so on are used to specify the number of times of the alkyl groups in the chain.

In the give compound, the longest possible carbon chain has 6 carbon atoms. So, the prefix used will be 'hex-' and also the carbon has single bond between them, so it is an alkane. Four methyl group is present at 2,2,4,5 position of carbon chain and one ethyl group is present at 3 position.

Hence, the correct IUPAC name for the compound is, 2,2,4,5-tetramethyl-3-ethylhexane.

17. When does radioactive decay occur?
svlad2 [7]

The correct options are as follows:

17. C.

Radioactive decay refers to the process by which an unstable atomic nucleus loses energy by giving out radiations. The radiations emit can be in form of alpha or beta particles or gamma rays. Radioactive decay is a random process, that is, one can not predict when it would happen. Radioactive decay occurs when the nucleus of an atom decay and no longer have enough binding energy to hold the atomic sub particles together.

18. B.

Radioactive decay occurs when the nucleus no longer have enough energy to hold the sub particles in the nucleus together. This situation always occur when there are excess protons or neutrons in the nucleus of the atom. In the nucleus of an atom, two forces are usually at work, nuclear and electrostatic forces. While proton experience both of these forces, neutron only experience the nuclear force. These two forces that are in opposition bring about radioactive decay.
