Isotopes are variants of an element which have differing number of neutrons. So, yes, because all of them have the same atomic number, meaning they are all Mg, however they all have differing atomic masses meaning different number of neutrons.

Since the half-life of 235U (7. 13 x 108 years) is less than that of 238U (4.51 x 109 years), the isotopic abundance of 235U has

Answer:

$\mathtt{ t_1-t_2= In(\dfrac{3}{y}) \times \dfrac{7.13 \times 10^8}{In2} \ years}$

Explanation:

Given that:

The Half-life of $^{235}U$ = $7.13 \times 10^8 \ years$ is less than that of $^{238} U = 4.51 \times 10^9 \ years$

Although we are not given any value about the present weight of $^{235}U$ .

So, consider the present weight in the percentage of $^{235}U$ to be y%

Then, the time elapsed to get the present weight of $^{235}U$ = $t_1$

Therefore;

$N_1 = N_o e^{-\lambda \ t_1}$

here;

$N_1$ = Number of radioactive atoms relating to the weight of y of $^{235}U$

Thus:

$In( \dfrac{N_1}{N_o}) = - \lambda t_1$

$In( \dfrac{N_o}{N_1}) = \lambda t_1$ --- (1)

However, Suppose the time elapsed from the initial stage to arrive at the weight of the percentage of $^{235}U$ to be = $t_2$

Then:

$In( \dfrac{N_o}{N_2}) = \lambda t_2$ ---- (2)

here;

$N_2$ = Number of radioactive atoms of $^{235}U$ relating to 3.0 a/o weight

Now, equating equation (1) and (2) together, we have:

$In( \dfrac{N_o}{N_1}) -In( \dfrac{N_o}{N_2}) = \lambda( t_1-t_2)$

replacing the half-life of $^{235}U$ = $7.13 \times 10^8 \ years$

$In( \dfrac{N_2}{N_1}) = \dfrac{In 2}{7.13 \times 10^9}( t_1-t_2)$ ( since $\lambda = \dfrac{In 2}{t_{1/2}}$ )

∴

$\mathtt{In(\dfrac{3}{y}) \times \dfrac{7.13 \times 10^8}{In2}= t_1-t_2}$

The time elapsed signifies how long the isotopic abundance of 235U equal to 3.0 a/o

Thus, The time elapsed is $\mathtt{ t_1-t_2= In(\dfrac{3}{y}) \times \dfrac{7.13 \times 10^8}{In2} \ years}$

Vilka [71]

Answer:

Explanation:

When comparing the drops of oil and water, one thing I noticed was the shape. The water drop was more defined, whereas the drop of oil began to spread and was much flatter. This may be due to the waxy material, and how both oil and water react to the wax.
