If 1/8 remains after 21 years, what is the half-life?
vagabundo [1.1K]

Half life formula

The number of unstable nuclei remaining after time t can be determined according to this equation:

N(t) = N(0) * 0.5^(t/T)

where:

N(t) is the remaining quantity of a substance after time t has elapsed.

N(0) is the initial quantity of this substance.

T is the half-life.

It is also possible to determine the remaining quantity of a substance using a few other parameters:

N(t) = N(0) * e^(-t/τ)

N(t) = N(0) * e^(-λt)

τ is the mean lifetime - the average amount of time a nucleus remains intact.

λ is the decay constant (rate of decay).

All three of the parameters characterizing a substance's radioactivity are related in the following way:

T = ln(2)/λ = ln(2)*τ

How to calculate the half life

Determine the initial amount of a substance. For example, N(0) = 2.5 kg.

Determine the final amount of a substance - for instance, N(t) = 2.1 kg.

Measure how long it took for that amount of material to decay. In our experiment, we observed that it took 5 minutes.

Input these values into our half life calculator. It will compute a result for you instantaneously - in this case, the half life is equal to 19.88 minutes.

If you are not certain that our calculator returned the correct result, you can always check it using the half life formula.

Proteins are synthesized from ________ during synthesis reactions. nucleotides amino acids glycerol and fatty acids monosacchari
ANTONII [103]
I believe proteins are synthesized from amino acids during synthesis reactions.
Protein synthesis starts with transcription of mRNA from a DNA gene in the nucleus.Various types of RNA may have been synthesized using the appropriate DNA. The RNAs migrate from the nucleus to the cytoplasm where the process of translation takes place. During the process the mRNA with the codons (three nucleotide bases that code for a specific amino acids) is interpreted by the anticodons in the tRNA , thus forming amino acids with together forms polypeptides and then proteins are formed.
