The radon-222 sample has a half-life of 3.8 days, and we are asked how many times would the mass divide in half after 23 days. First we calculate the amount of times division occurs by taking the number of days and dividing that by the number of days for one half-life to occur: 23/3.8 = 6.05.

We have 198.6 grams of sample, and we are going to divide it in half 6 times to determine how much of it remains after 23 days:
198.6/2 = 99.3 grams
99.3/2 = 49.65 grams
49.65/2 = 24.83 grams
24.83/2 = 12.41 grams
12.41/2 = 6.21 grams
6.21/2 = 3.1 grams

Therefore, we are left with 3.1 grams of radon-222 after 23 days if one half-life equals to 3.8 days.

If the temperature we're to go down how would that effect the solubility of each solute
vova2212 [387]

well when there is more kinetic energy in a solution the higher its temperature is going to be so the more the molecules are able to be help together, the lower the temperature the more difficult it would be to break the molecule apart in order to bond with it.

When converting an acid salt dissolved in water to its acid form, you are instructed to adjust the ph well into the acidic range
777dan777 [17]
First of all, the problem says that you have to convert the acid salt to its acidic form. If you take it to the neutral pH, that won't be acidic at all. As simple as that, you don't take it to neutral pH because it would lose its definition of being acidic afterall.
