Answer:

Explanation:

In counting the electron domains around the central atom in VSEPR theory, a Core level electron pair is not included.

Core level electron pair are the electrons other than the electrons in the valency shell of an atom. They in the proximity of the nucleus. They do not participate in the bonding.

VSEPR is the abbreviation for Valence shell Electron Pair repulsion theory. VESPR is a model for predicting molecular geometries based on the reduction in the electrostatic repulsion of the valence electrons of a molecule around a central atom.

Iodine-131 is administered orally in the form of NaI(aq) as a treatment for thyroid cancer. The half-life of iodine-131 is 8.04

evablogger [386]

Answer:

16.6 mg

Explanation:

Step 1: Calculate the rate constant (k) for Iodine-131 decay

We know the half-life is t1/2 = 8.04 day. We can calculate the rate constant using the following expression.

k = ln2 / t1/2 = ln2 / 8.04 day = 0.0862 day⁻¹

Step 2: Calculate the mass of iodine after 8.52 days

Iodine-131 decays following first-order kinetics. Given the initial mass (I₀ = 34.7 mg) and the time elapsed (t = 8.52 day), we can calculate the mass of iodine-131 using the following expression.

ln I = ln I₀ - k × t

ln I = ln 34.7 - 0.0862 day⁻¹ × 8.52 day

I = 16.6 mg

A plant extract can be obtained with organic solvents such as acetone or ethyl alcohol, and is composed of plant pigments such a

prohojiy [21]

Answer:

Here's what I get

Explanation:

A plant extract is a mixture because it contains different substances: acetone or ethanol, chlorophylls A and B, carotene and xanthophylls.

It is homogeneous because it is a solution. There is only one phase: the liquid phase. You cannot see the pigments as separate phases.

You can separate the pigments by paper, thin layer, or column chromatography.

Many schools use paper chromatography, because paper is cheap.

As the mixture of pigments follows the solvent up the paper, they separate into different coloured bands according to their attractive forces to the cellulose in the paper.

The chlorophylls are strongly attracted to the paper, so they don't travel very far.

The nonpolar carotene molecules have little attraction to the polar cellulose, so they are carried along by the solvent front.

What chemical property of water allows for its unique characteristics?

adell [148]

well one thing that’s unique about water is the fact that it’s dipole, meaning that water has both a positive side and a negative side.
