6 0

Answer:

  The half-life is defined as, the substance which are radioactive in the nature and it is charactertics constant. It basically measured the duration or time, when the quantity of the substance are reduced by the half with decay consequences. This process is defined the term half-life.

For example - The life of the medical are basically referred to the half life of the biological to drugs and other reactions in the body of human.

The research of astronomy during the time period of 1970 - 1990 is given below:

<u>Date</u>                                                   <u>Event</u>

1. 15 June 1974               Black Brant VC sounding rocket from White Sands.

2. 14 May 1973              Launch of Skylab, the USA's first space station

3. 26 July 1971           Launch of Apollo 15

<h3>What is Astronomy?</h3>

This refers to the branch of science that deals with celestial bodies and their relation to each other.

Hence, from information about astronomy, between the time period 1970 - 1990 as it was on the 26th of December, 1974 that the Soviet space station Salyut-4 was launched.

The event I think had the greatest impact in astronomical history during this time period was the launch of Apollo 16.

The Ksp for calcium fluoride, CaF2, is 1.5 x 10-10. a) Excess solid calcium fluoride is added to 1.00 L of pure water. Calculate
solniwko [45]

Answer:

a) [ Ca2+ ] = 3.347 E-4 mol/L

b) [ Ca2+ ] = 1.5 E-8 mol/L

Explanation:

  • CaF2 ↔ Ca2+  +  2F-

          S             S          2S......in the equilibrium

⇒ Ksp = 1.5 E-10 = [ Ca2+ ] * [ F- ]² = S * ( 2S )² = 4S³

⇒ S = ∛ ( 1.5 E-10 / 4 )

⇒ S = ∛ 3.75 E-11

⇒ S = 3.347 E-4 mol/L

⇒ [ Ca2+ ] = S = 3.347 E-4 mol/L

b) NaF ↔ Na+  +  F-

  0.10 M    0.10     0.10

  • CaF2 ↔,Ca2+  +    2F-

         S             S         2S + 0.10

⇒ Ksp = 1.5 E-10 = [ Ca2+ ] * [ F- ]² = S * ( 2S + 0.10 )²

∴∴ the Concentration: 0.10 M >>>> Ksp ( 1.5 E-10 ), son we can despise S as adding.

⇒ 1.5 E-10 = S * ( 0.10 )² = 0.01 S

⇒ S = 1.5 E-10 / 0-01

⇒ S = 1.5 E-8 mol/L

⇒ [ Ca2+ ] = S = 1.5 E-8 mol/L
