Cathode rays are a stream of negatively charged particles or electrons in vacuum tubes. They were first seen by Johann Hittorf in 1869. They are named since they are emitted by electrode or cathode. In order to release the electrons, the electrons should first be detached from the atoms of the cathode.
After 3 years, the substance will go through 4 half lives. You can do 230*(1/2)^4, which is 14.375.
Use PV=nRT to solve the equation. You need to solve for n (number of moles). Don’t forget to convert the temperature to kelvins by adding 25+273. Use 0.082057 for R.
