The half life of an isotope means how long it will take for the amount of given isotope to decay to only 1/2 of the original amount.

If you start with 10.0g of polonium-218 and the half life is 3.0 minutes, then in 3.0 minutes you will have half of the original amount

Half of the original amount is equal to 5.0g

<em>The answer is </em><em>5.0g</em>

Which of the following statements is true when considering temperature during a recrystallization? More than one answer may be c
Otrada [13]

Answer:

The correct answer is:

<em>(1) It is important that the sample is dissolved in just enough hot solvent. </em>

Explanation:

The process of recrystallization is important to eliminate the impurities and to obtain better crystals of the solid. The solvent used to perform the recrystallization must have a high dissolution power of the substance to be recrystallized and a low dissolution power of the impurities. This is in order to eliminate most impurities. Furthermore, <em>It is important that the sample is dissolved in just enough hot solvent </em>because this should be easy to remove after the recrystallization and the crystal should form easily when the solution cools. Also, it is better to add the hot solvent to solubilize the crystals and keep the impurities insoluble, instead of adding the cold solvent and heating the solution. Additionally, the process of cooling the solution must be done slowly to obtain large and fewer crystals. A fast ice-cooling will form smaller crystals.
