The half-life of Radium-226 is 1590 years. If a sample contains 100 mg, how many mg will remain after 4000 years?

We can calculate the amount left after 4000 years by using the half-life equation. It is expressed as:

A = Ao e^-kt

where A is the amount left at t years, Ao is the initial concentration, and k is a constant.

From the half-life data, we can calculate for k.

1/2(Ao) = Ao e^-k(1590)
k = 4.36 x 10^-4

A = 100 e^-<span> 4.36 x 10^-4(4000)
</span>A = 17.48 mg

Balance this equation, please.
Digiron [165]

Answer:3Li+YbCl3=Yb +3LiCl

Explanation:as there are three cl in the first one so to balance them we will put 3before LiCl in order to make Cl balanced now there are 3 Li also so put before Li 3 making it also balanced Yb is balanced already

in order to find the molar mass of an unknown compound, a research scientist prepared a solution of 0.930 g of an unknown in 125
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

Molar mass→ 0.930 g / 6.45×10⁻³ mol = 144.15 g/mol

Explanation:

Let's apply the formula for freezing point depression:

ΔT = Kf . m

ΔT = 74.2°C - 73.4°C → 0.8°C

Difference between the freezing T° of pure solvent and freezing T° of solution

Kf = Cryoscopic constant → 5.5°C/m

So, if we replace in the formula

ΔT = Kf . m → ΔT / Kf = m

0.8°C / 5.5 m/°C = m → 0.0516 mol/kg

These are the moles in 1 kg of solvent so let's find out the moles in our mass of solvent which is 0.125 kg

0.0516 mol/kg . 0.125 kg = 6.45×10⁻³ moles. Now we can determine the molar mass:

Molar mass (mol/kg) → 0.930 g / 6.45×10⁻³ mol = 144.15 g/mol

The _______ geometry of a water molecule is tetrahedral even though the molecular geometry is bent
IRINA_888 [86]

The electron geometry of a water molecule is tetrahedral even though the molecular geometry is bent.

As water molecule hybridisation is sp³ that provides it a electron geometry tetrahedral but due to presence of 2 lone pairs and 2 bond pairs its molecular geometry is bent.

The hybridisation sp³ makes  electron geometry of a water molecule tetrahedral but the presence of 2 lone pairs makes its  molecular geometry bent
