Two containers hold the same radioactive isotope. Container A contains 1000 atoms, and container B contains 500 atoms. Which of

the following statements about containers A and B is true? Two containers hold the same radioactive isotope. Container A contains 1000 atoms, and container B contains 500 atoms. Which of the following statements about containers A and B is true? The rate of decay of atoms (half-life) in container A is greater (or longer) than the rate of decay of atoms (half-life) in container B. The rate of decay of atoms (half-life) in container B is greater (or longer) than the rate of decay of atoms (half-life) in container A. The rate of decay of atoms (half-life) in container B is the same as the rate of decay of atoms (half-life) in container A.

Answer:

B

Explanation:

This is due to the differences in the concentrations of the radioactive isotopes in the two containers of the same volume. In container A, with a higher density of atoms, there is a higher chance of a neutron released in the decay of one atom, hitting another atom and splitting it. This is in comparison to container B that has fewer atoms that are widely dispersed due to the lower density. Atoms in cointainer A will therefore decay faster (shorter half-life) than atoms in container B.

Why were colonists in new england angry at king james 2 abd governor edmund andros of new england?​
Pani-rosa [81]

His strict imposition of autocratic rule was supported by his appointment by the King, who otherwise was not directly involved.

Explanation:

Andros’ imposition of Episcopalian worship in the Old South Meeting house, Boston his vigorous enforcement of the Navigation Acts.

He had earned the enmity of the local populace by enforcing the restrictive Navigation Acts.

He had infuriated Puritans in Boston by promoting the Church of England, which was rejected by many Nonconformist New England colonists.

When news of the overthrow of James II (1688) reached Boston, the colonists revolted, deposing Andros and imprisoning him.

His requirement that landholders take out new land patents and his limitations upon town meetings and rights of local taxation all aroused sharp resentment in colonial America.
