Answer:
After 48 hours amount left = 6.25 g
Explanation:
Given data:
Half life of potassium = 12 hours
Total mass = 100 g
Mass left after 48 hours = ?
Solution:
Number of half lives passed:
Number of half lives = Time elapsed / half life
Number of half lives = 48 hours/ 12 hours
Number of half lives = 4
At time zero = 100 g
At first half life = 100 g/ 2 = 50 g
At 2nd half life = 50 g/2 = 25 g
At 3rd half life = 25 g/2 = 12.5g
At 4th half life = 12.5 g/2 = 6.25 g
Tumor cells are cells that divide relentlessly, forming solid tumors or flooding the blood with abnormal cells.
A dog breathes in oxygen and then releases carbon dioxide when he exhales. Conversely, a tree gives off oxygen and takes in carbon dioxide. So the breath of the dog sustains the tree while the output of oxygen for the tree sustains the dog.
Carbon Monoxide has 2 atoms total - one atom of carbon (C) and one atom of oxygen (O) chemical formula is CO
Ethylene has 6 atoms total, 2 atoms of carbon (C) and 4 atoms of hydrogen (H), chemical formula is C2H4.
Ethylene has four more atoms than carbon monoxide (6-2) = 4
