173.99cm multiply 68.5 x 2.54 always use that number when converting inches to cm
Answer:
This approximation of mass can be used to easily calculate how many neutrons an element has by simply subtracting the number of protons from the mass number. Protons and neutrons both weigh about one atomic mass unit or amu. Isotopes of the same element will have the same atomic number but different mass numbers.
Explanation:
Answer:
8.625 grams of a 150 g sample of Thorium-234 would be left after 120.5 days
Explanation:
The nuclear half life represents the time taken for the initial amount of sample to reduce into half of its mass.
We have given that the half life of thorium-234 is 24.1 days. Then it takes 24.1 days for a Thorium-234 sample to reduced to half of its initial amount.
Initial amount of Thorium-234 available as per the question is 150 grams
So now we start with 150 grams of Thorium-234
So after 120.5 days the amount of sample that remains is 8.625g
In simpler way , we can use the below formula to find the sample left
Where
is the initial sample amount
n = the number of half-lives that pass in a given period of time.
Answer: (3) molecules have different molecular structures.
Explanation:
1) Oxygen (O₂) and ozone (O₃) are allotropes of each other.
2) Allotropes are different structural forms of a same element with different structures and properties, when they are in the same state: solid, liquid, gas.
3) The bonds is what define the structure and properties of the substances, so since O₂ has only two bonds and O₃ has three bonds, the properties and behaviors of the element are different.
4) Other example of allotropes are graphite and diamond: two different forms of carbon. Both, graphite and diamond are formed only by carbon atoms, but they are bonded differently so, as you know, diamond and graphite have different properties: graphite is very soft while diamond is one of the hardest known substances.
