There's a 50 gram sample of our Ra-229 it is half-life is 4 minutes how much will be left after 12 minutes

6.25 grams of Ra-229

To find this, set up a chart. Start the first row with the original mass and the time of zero as half lives haven't started.

For the next row, halve the amount and set the time to four. Continue this process until twelve minutes as you halve the last amount given.

Hope this helps!

If the half-life of hydrogen-3 is 11.8 years, after two half-lives the radioactivity of a sample will be reduced to one-half of
maw [93]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Half life is the time period at which the concentration of the radioactive substance in decay reduced to half.

<u>Thus, if the hydrogen-3 has gone 2 half lives, it means that it has first reduced to its half and then again the half of what it was, i.e. 1/4</u>

Thus, after two successive half-lives, the concentration must be 1/4 of the initial concentration and hence, the statement is false.

Galina-37 [17]
The correct answer to this question is Water will move from left to right.

Water tends to move over to the side where there is less water. For example, if there's less water on the RIGHT side, then the water will tend to move from left, to RIGHT. It <span>shows more solute molecules on the right, so water will move to this side by osmosis. I think it is to do with entropy and the tendency for systems to move to equilibrium if there is an increase in entropy</span>

A substance has half the number of particles as 12 grams of carbon 12, how many moles are in the substance?
gavmur [86]

the molar mass is how many grams it takes to make a full mole.  The number  in carbon 12 tells us that it takes 12 g to makes a mole, so one half of that would be <u><em>option d, 0.5</em></u>.
