Answer:

The answer to your question is:

Explanation:

a)

Data

half-life = 16.7 days

go from 1000 to 250 atoms

                                1000

                                  500         1 half life

                                  250         2 half lives

                16.7 days ---------------- 1 half life

                 x             ----------------- 2 half lives

                x = (2 x 16.7) / 1

               x = 33.4 days        

               

b)

number of atoms = ?

after 9 half-lives

                            1000

                              500       1 half life

                               250       2 half lives

                               125        3 half lives

                                62.5     4 half lives

                               31.25     5 half lives

                                15.63    6 half lives

                                 7.81      7 half lives

                                 3.9       8 half lives

                                 1.95      9 half lives

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.

1,5,25,125 what’s the pattern rule and extend by 3 more numbers
nika2105 [10]

For the first one the pattern is multiply the previous number by five as you see 1 x 5 = 5 and so on. To keep adding to it you would do

125 x 5 = 625     625 x 5 = 3125    3125 x 5 = 15625

Now for the second one the pattern is divide the previous number by three as you can see 2187 / 3 = 729 and so on. To keep going you would

81 / 3 = 27       27 / 3 = 9        9 / 3 = 3

I hope this helps you and if you have anymore questions i'll be  glad to answer them.

How many grams of NaCI per kilogram of water are present in a 2.7 molal aqueous solution​
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

157.79 g

Explanation:

The definition of molality is:

  • molality = moles of solute / kilogram of solvent

This means that in a 2.7 molal solution, there are 2.7 moles of NaCl per kilogram of water.

So now w<u>e convert those 2.7 moles of NaCl to grams</u>, using its <em>molar mass</em>:

  • 2.7 mol * 58.44 g/mol = 157.79 g

What are the characteristics of electromagnetic waves?
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer: Electromagnetic waves are transverse in nature as they propagate by varying the electric and magnetic fields such that the two fields are perpendicular to each other.

Accelerated charges are responsible to produce electromagnetic waves.
