Because the further from earth's gravitational pull the less you weigh. A person's mass will never change but their weight can vary depending on where in the world they are

The radioisotope xenon-133 has a half-life of 5.2 days. How much of an 80 gram sample would be left after 20.8 days? PLEASE SHOW
yarga [219]

Answer:

6.73g

Explanation:

T½ = 5.2days

No = 80g

N = ?

T = 20.8days

We'll have to find the disintegration constant first so that we can plug it into the equation that will help us find the mass of the sample after 20.8 days

T½ = In2 / λ

T½ = half life

λ = disintegration constant

λ = In2 / T½

λ = 0.693 / 5.8

λ = 0.119

In(N / No) = -λt

N = final mass of the radioactive sample

No = initial mass of the sample

λ = disintegration constant

t = time for the radioactive decay

In(N/No) = -λt

N / No = e^-λt

N = No(e^-λt)

N = 80 × e^-(0.119 × 20.8)

N = 80 × e^-2.4752

N = 80 × 0.0841

N = 6.728g

The mass of the sample after 20.8 days is approximately 6.73g

At a transform fault boundary
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

Most of these faults are hidden in the deep ocean, where they offset divergent boundaries in short zigzags resulting from seafloor spreading, the best-known (and most destructive) being those on land at the margins of continental tectonic plates. A transform fault is the only type of strike-slip fault that is classified as a plate boundary.

The boiling point of ethanol is 78.3 degrees Celsius. The boiling point of
Scrat [10]

Answer:

K = 351.3

Explanation:

The relationship between the Celsius scale and kelvin scale is;

K = 273 + C

Since the Celsius temperature = 78.3

The kelvin temperature is given as;

K = 273  + 78.3

K = 351.3

Which two electron configurations represent elements that would have similar chemical properties? (1) 1s22s22p4 (2) 1s22s22p5 (3
Anton [14]

Answer: Two electron configurations of elements that would have similar chemical properties are (2) and (4).

Explanation:

(1) 1s^22s^22p^4

(2) 1s^22s^22p^5

(3) [Ar]4s^23d^5

(4) [Ar]4s^23d^{10}^4p^5

Valence electrons : These are the electrons present in last principal quantum number of an atom of the element.

Two electron configurations represent elements that would have similar chemical properties are (2) and (4). This is because number of valence electrons present in both of them are same that is seven valence electrons . Also valence electrons of both the elements are present in p-orbital which means that they both belongs to same group  in a periodic table. The members of same group in a periodic table have similar chemical properties.
