Answer:

U- 238

Explanation:

Uranium-238 is used to date many geological samples, especially on materials that are thousands to over a million years old

(2) U-238 is the radioisotope used in dating geological formations. Uranium-238 has a half-life of 4.46 billion years, which makes it suitable to date such old formations.
The other options do not have such long durabilities and half-lives.

1. What is the relationship between science and society?
Rufina [12.5K]
Societies have changed over time, and consequently, so has science. For example, during the first half of the 20th century, when the world was enmeshed in war, governments made funds available for scientists to pursue research with wartime applications — and so science progressed in that direction, unlocking the mysteries of nuclear energy. At other times, market forces have led to scientific advances. For example, modern corporations looking for income through medical treatment, drug production, and agriculture, have increasingly devoted resources to biotechnology research, yielding breakthroughs in genomic sequencing and genetic engineering. And on the flipside, modern foundations funded by the financial success of individuals may invest their money in ventures that they deem to be socially responsible, encouraging research on topics like renewable energy technologies. Science is not static; it changes over time, reflecting shifts in the larger societies in which it is embedded

For metalloids on the periodic table, how do the group number and the period number relate?
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer : The correct option is A.

Explanation :

Metalloid : Metaloids are the elements whose properties lie between the metals and non-metals.

There are six commonly elements which are boron, silicon, germanium, arsenic, antimony and tellurium. The rare elements are polonium and astatine.

The relation between the group number and period number of metalloid is that the lower the group number, the lower the period numbers and the metalloids are found in a diagonal moving down from left to right in the periodic table.

A barium hydroxide solution is prepared by dissolving 2.06 g of Ba(OH)2 in water to make 32.9 mL of solution. What is the concen
navik [9.2K]

Answer:  1.36 M

Explanation:

Molarity of a solution is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved per liter of the solution.

Molarity=\frac{n\times 1000}{V_s}

where,

n = moles of solute

To calculate the moles, we use the equation:

moles of solute= \frac{\text {given mass}}{\text {molar mass}}=\frac{2.06g}{171g/mol}=0.0120moles

Molarity=\frac{0.0120\times 1000}{32.9}=0.364M

The balanced reaction between barium hydroxide and perchloric acid:

2HCIO_4+Ba(OH_)2\rightarrow BaCIO_4+2H_2O

To calculate the concentration of acid, we use the equation given by neutralization reaction:

n_1M_1V_1=n_2M_2V_2

where,

n_1,M_1\text{ and }V_1 are the n-factor, molarity and volume of acid which is HClO_4

n_2,M_2\text{ and }V_2 are the n-factor, molarity and volume of base which is Ba(OH)_2

We are given:

n_1=1\\M_1=?\\V_1=8.50mL\\n_2=2\\M_2=0.364M\\V_2=15.9mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

1\times M_1\times 8.50=2\times 0.364\times 15.9\\\\M_1=1.36M

Thus the concentration of the acid is 1.36 M

Preparation of ammonia gas<br>​
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

Ammonia is easily made in the laboratory by heating an ammonium salt, such as ammonium chloride NH4Cl with a strong alkali, such as sodium hydroxide or calcium hydroxide.

The gas may also be made by warming concentrated ammonium hydroxide.

Explanation:

2NH4Cl + Ca(OH)2 → CaCl2 + 2H2O + 2NH3(g)

According to Table I, which equation represents a change resulting in the greatest quantity of energy released?
love history [14]
The answer is 3. The releasing of energy means exothermic reaction. So the ΔH should be negative. And the greatest quantity of energy released means that the greatest number. So according to the table I, the answer is 3.
