Answer:
The half-life of Material 1 and Material 2 are equal.
Explanation:
Material 1 disintegrates to half its mass three times in 21.6 s, to go from 100g
to 12.5g. That is,
100g - 50g - 25g - 12.5g
Material 2 disintegrates to half its mass three times in 21.6 s, to go from 200g to 25g. That is,
200g - 50g - 25g - 12.5g.
This means that regardless of their initial masses involved, material 1 and material 2 have equal half-life.
Their half-life is 21.6 ÷ 3 = 7.2 sec
Like PERIODic table.). All of the elements in a period have the same number of atomic orbitals. For example, every element in the top row (the first period) has one orbital for its electrons. All of the elements in the second row (the second period) have two orbitals for their electrons.

There are several phases that this problem undergoes and the final answer is the sum of all the energy used for each phase.
Phase 1. Heating of solid ethanol until its melting point.
Phase 2. Melting of the ethanol until it's completely liquid.
Phase 3. Heating of the liquid ethanol until it reaches its boiling point.
Phase 4. Boiling the ethanol until it's completely vapor.
To make things more interesting, some of our constant are per gram and some others are per mole. So let's calculate how many moles of ethanol we have.
Atomic weight carbon = 12.0107
Atomic weight hydrogen = 1.00794
Atomic weight oxygen = 15.999
Molar mass ethanol = 2*12.0107 + 6*1.00794 + 15.999 = 46.06804 g/mol
Moles ethanol = 75g / 46.06804 g/mol = 1.628026719 mol
Phase 1. Use the specific heat of solid ethanol and multiply by the number of degrees we need to change by the mass we have. So
0.97 J/g*K * 75 g * (-114c - -120c)
= 0.97 J/g*K * 75 g * 6K
= 436.5 J
Phase 2: Time to melt. Just need the moles and the enthalpy of fusion. So:
1.628026719 mol * 5.02 kJ/mol = 8.172694128 kJ
Phase 3: Heat to boiling. Just like heating to melting, just a different specific heat and temperature
2.3J/g*K * 75g * (78c - -114c)
= 2.3J/g*K * 75g * 192 K
= 33120 J
Phase 4: Boil it to vapor. Need moles and enthalpy of vaporization. So
1.628026719 mol * 38.56 kJ/mol = 62.77671027 kJ
Now let's add them together:
436.5 J + 8.172694128 kJ + 33120 J + 62.77671027 kJ
= 0.4365 kJ + 8.172694128 kJ + 33.120 kJ + 62.77671027 kJ
=104.5059044 kJ
Since the least precise datum we have is 2 significant figures, round the result to 2 significant figures, giving 100 kilo joules.</span>
