Answer:

THE HALF LIFE OF PHOSPHORUS-32 ISOTOPE IS 14 DAYS.

Explanation:

Using the Nerst equation of half life;

t1/2 = t * in(2) / in (No/Nt)

where;

t1/2 = half life = the unknown

t = elapsed time = 56 days

No= initial mass of the sample = 4.0 g

Nt = final mass of the sample = 0.25 g

Substituting the values into the equation, we have;

t \frac{1}{2} = 56 * \frac{LN2}(LN 4/ 0.25) \\t1/2 = 56 * Ln2  / Ln ( 4/0.25)

t1/2 = 56 * 0.6932 / Ln (16)      

t1/2 = 56 * 0.6932 / 2.7726      

t1/2 = 38.8192 / 2.7726

t1/2 = 14.001 days.

t1/2 = 14 days.

The half life of the phosphorus- 32 would be 14 days

What is the symbol of the ion with 36 electrons and a +2 charge?
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

Strontium

Explanation:

The atomic number of strontium is 38.

It has 38 electrons.

It is alkaline earth metal. It has two valance electrons.

Strontium loses its two electrons and form cation with +2 charge.

Electronic configuration;

Sr₃₈ = [Kr] 5s²

The valance electrons present in 5s are lost by strontium atom and form Sr⁺² cation.

it is yellowish-white metal.

It is highly reactive.

It form salt with halogens.e.g

Sr    +   Br₂    →     SrBr₂

IT react with oxygen and form oxide.

2Sr   +   O₂   →    2SrO

this oxide form hydroxide when react with water,

SrO  + H₂O   →  Sr(OH)₂

With nitrogen it produced nitride,

3Sr + N₂     →  Sr₃N₂

With acid like HCl,

Sr + 2HCl  →  SrCl₂ + H₂

Which pair of atoms has the highest electronegativity difference?
zavuch27 [327]
The best way to accurately determine the pair with the highest electronegativity difference is by using their corresponding electronegativity values. For the each of the choices, the difference is:

A. H-S = 2.5 - 2.1 = 0.4
B. H-Cl = 3 - 2.1 = 0.9
C. N-H = 3 - 2.1 = 0.9
D. O-H = 3.5 - 2.1 = 1.4
E. C-H = 2.5 - 2.1 = 0.4

As show, D. has the highest difference. Without looking at their values, you can also determine the pair with the highest difference by taking note of the trend of electronegativity on the periodic table. Electronegativity increases as you go right a group and up a period. This makes oxygen the most electronegative element among the other elements paired with hydrogen.

An airplane travels with a constant velocity of 210 m/s and in the upper atmosphere where the plane is traveling there is a wind
kolezko [41]

Answer:

hello your question is incomplete the options are missing

Determine the resultant velocity for the plane when it is travelling

i) To the east

ii) To the west

answer :i)  270 i

             ii)  -150 i

Explanation:

velocity of Airplane = 210 m/s

wind velocity = 60 m/s to the east

The resultant velocity for the plane when it is travelling  

let the velocity of the wind = V2

           velocity of the plane = v1

i) The resultant velocity for the plane when travelling to the east

Vr = V2 i  + V1 i

Vr= 60i + 210i  = 270i

ii) resultant velocity when the plane is travelling to the west

Vr = - V1 i + V2i

     = -210i  + 60 i = -150 i

The temperature of a boiling liquid can rise above its boiling point.<br> a. true<br> b. false
goldenfox [79]
The temperature of a liquid can exceed its boiling point. An example is water. Although at ordinary pressure of 1 atm, the boiling point is 100 degrees, water can still exist in higher temperatures but this time in another state. Superheated steam is the term used for water whose temperature has higher than the boiling point

Answer:

It helps the body remove heat through sweating.

Explanation:

When the weather is hot, the body tries to keep cool by sweating. The high specific heat capacity means that the body doesn't have to lose much water to stay cool.

The high specific heat capacity of water doesn’t heat the body, but it slows down the rate of heat loss when the weather is cool.

B is wrong. The body uses glucose, not water, as an energy source.

C is wrong. The high specific heat capacity of water is not connected with the body's ability to store it.

D is wrong. The high specific heat capacity of water doesn't heat the body, but it slows the rate at which it cools.
