Answer: 0.70g
The half-life of iron-53 would be 8.51 minutes. So, in 25.53 minutes would be equal to: 25.53 min/ (8.51 minutes/ half-life)= 3 half-life.
Every half-life will reduce the original weight into half. So, the final weight would be:
final weight = original weight * 1/2 ^(time)
final weight = 5.6g * (1/2)^(3 half-life)
final weight = 5.6g * 1/8= 0.7g
Carrot is a root vegetable. asparagus is a stem we consume
Step 1. - Scientists first take a look at their empirical evidence and try to explain it.
Step 2. - Scientists test if their explanation or conclusion is logical.
Step 3. - If their explanation is logical, they search for new test that may help them to support their first idea.
Given:
257J of heat
5500g of mercury
increase by 5.5
degrees Celsius
Required:
Specific heat of
mercury
Solution:
H
= mCpT
257J = (5500g of
mercury) Cp (5.5 degrees Celsius)
Cp = 8.5 x 10^-3
Joules per gram per degree Celsius
