A and C are incorrect because they are not complete transfer of valence electrons. Ionic bonds best to form a neutral molecule
Answer:
10.8 days (3 sig.figs.)
Explanation:
All radioactive decay is 1st order decay defined by the expression A = A₀e^-kt
which is solved for time of decay (t) => t = ln(A/A₀) / -k
A = final weight = 1.0 gram
A₀ = initial weight = 16.0 grams
k = rate constant = 0.693/t(1/2) = 0.693/2.69 days = 0.258 days⁻¹
t = ln(1/16) / -0.258da⁻¹ = (-2.77/-0.258) days = 10.74646792 days (calculator)
≅ 10 days (1 sig. fig. based on given 1 gram mass)
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option C. The can <span>from the cupboard will lose carbon dioxide more quickly because it is warmer and gases are less soluble in warmer temperatures. </span> Solubility of gases is a strong function of temperature and as well as pressure.
