Answer:

The answer to your question is the original dose of Ba-142 was 1184 μg

Explanation:

Data

Total time = 1.25 hours

The Final amount of Ba = 9.25 μg

The Half-life of Ba = 10.6 minutes

Process

1.- Convert total time to minutes

                      1 h ----------------- 60 min

                       1.25 h ------------ x

                        x = 75 min

2.- Draw a table of this process

                   Final amount of Ba               Time

                           9.25                                 75 min

                           18.5                                  64.4 min

                           37                                     53.8 min

                           74                                     43.2 min

                          148                                     32.6 min

                          296                                    22  min

                          592                                    11.4 min

                         1184                                      0.8 min

determine whether the aqueous solutions of each of the following salts will be acidic, basic, or neutral
eduard

KCl is neutral because KOH is a strong base and HCl is a strong acid

To determine if the salt is neutral, acidic or basic, determine how the salt was made, or from which acid and base it was derived. Once we have determined how the salt was made, determine if the acid and base are both strong, weak or one of each.  If both are strong (e.g. NaOH + HCl), then the salt (NaCl) is NEUTRAL.  If the base is strong and the acid is weak (KOH + HCN), then the salt (KCN) is BASIC.  IF the base is weak and the acid is strong (NH3 + HCl), then the salt (NH4Cl) is ACIDIC.  If both the base and the acid are weak (NH3 + CH3COOH), then then salt (CH3COONH4) will have a pH determined by which is stronger (the acid or the base) and this will depend on the Ka of the weak acid compared to the Kb of the weak base.

KCl is neutral because KOH is a strong base and HCl is a strong acid NaCN is generally basic because NaOH is a strong base and HCN is a very week acid. NH4NO3 is usually acid because HNO3 is a strong acid and NH4OH is a week base

CH3COONH4 is exactly neutral because both NH4OH ad CH3COOH are respectively week base and week acid. Moreover, the Ka of acetic acid is exactly equal to the Kb of NH4OH
