Answer:

the amount present 8 hours ago is Ao = 93.338 g

Explanation:

the radioactive decay is given by

A = Ao * 2^(- t/T)

where T = half-life of the substance , t= time , A= amount of substance at time t , Ao= amount of substance at time 0

therefore at t=8 hours , A=16.5 gr

Ao = A*2^(t/T) = 16.5 g * 2^(8 hours/3.20 hours) = 93.338 g

Ao = 93.338 g

What happened to the weather after mount tambora epurted?
storchak [24]

Answer:

The eruption of Mount Tambora eventually reduced the average global temperature by as much as 3 °C.

Explanation:

The Mount Tambora eruption was the largest and most destructive volcanic event in recorded history, expelling as much as 150 cubic km (roughly 36 cubic miles) of ash, pumice, and other rock, and aerosols—including an estimated 60 megatons of sulfur—into the atmosphere. As that material mixed with atmospheric gases, it prevented substantial amounts of sunlight from reaching Earth’s surface, eventually reducing the average global temperature by as much as 3 °C.

The element Osminum has a density of 22.6 g/cm3. the mass of a block of Osmium with three sides of 1.01cmx0.223 cm x 0.648 cm is
Alika [10]
Volume of osmium = 1.01(0.223)(0.648) = 0.14595 cm3

Density = mass / volume
So density x volume = mass of osmium
22.6 x 0.14595 = 3.29845 g
