Answer:
Explanation:
Isotopes are atoms of elements that have the same atomic number but different mass number hence ISOTOPY. Radioactive Isotopes on the other hand are unstable as they either undergo Alpha decay, beta decay or gamma decay compared to stable isotopes.
Radioactive elements decay at varyinf rates as such the rate of radioactive decay is used in the characterization of radioactive element and mostly expressed in terms of the half life of the radioactive elements.
Half life is the time taken for half of the total atoms of an elements to decay into half of its initial sizes. for example, the half life of radium-226 is 1622 years, it implies that if we have 1000000 radium atoms at the beginning, then at the end of 1622years, 500000 would have disintegrated. These phenomenon can never be experienced by stable isotopes as such they can not be used in carbon dating techniques. reason why uranium-238 is mostly and commonly used in the earth crust to estimate the ages of rocks because it has a half life of 4.5 x 10^9 years.
And also, the radioactive isotopes of most common light element are short, they have very short half life (few days or weeks) and they decay rapidly to vanshing point, as such, they are not found in nature to any reasonable extent.
Answer:
Mass = 255 g
Explanation:
Given data:
Number of moles of nitrogen = 7.5 mol
Mass of ammonia formed = ?
Solution:
Chemical equation:
3H₂ + N₂ → 2NH₃
Now we will compare the moles of nitrogen and ammonia.
N₂ : NH₃
1 : 2
7.5 : 2/1×7.5 = 15
Mass of ammonia:
Mass = number of moles × molar mass
Mass = 15 mol × 17 g/mol
Mass = 255 g
The answer
the speed of <span>the train traveling in kilometers per minute can be found by using the following method:
v = </span><span>30 miles per hour
</span><span>1 mile = 1.6 kilometers
just do the calculus by changing miles to kilometers
</span>1 mile = 1.6 kilometers, so 30 miles= 1.6 km x 30 = 48 km
so the speed of the train is
v=30 miles / hour = 48km / h = 48km / 60 mn = 0.8 km/ mn
the answer is
<span>C- 0.8 km/min</span>
Answer:
The answer is either o or p i think it is p
Explanation:
The classification of living things makes it easier for scientists to answer many important questions.
Examples:
-How many known species are there?
-What are the defining characteristics of each species?
-What are the relationships between these species?
