There are 2 grams remain

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

t1/2 = 30 years

t = 170 years

No = 100 g

Required

Remaining sample

Solution

General formulas used in decay:  

\large{\boxed{\bold{N_t=N_0(\dfrac{1}{2})^{t/t\frac{1}{2} }}}

Input the value :

\tt Nt=100.\dfrac{1}{2}^{170/30}\\\\Nt=1.969\approx 2~grams

Calculate the mass percent (m/m) of a solution prepared by dissolving 51.56 g of NaCl in 164.2 g of H2O. Express your answer to
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

"23.896%" is the right answer.

Explanation:

The given values are:

Mass of NaCl,

= 51.56 g

Mass of H₂O,

= 165.6 g

As we know,

⇒  Mass of solution = Mass \ of \ (NaCl+H_2O)

                                 = 51.56+164.2

                                 = 215.76 \ g

hence,

⇒ Mass \ percent =\frac{Mass \ of \ NaCl}{Mass \ of \ solution}\times 100

                           =\frac{51.56}{215.76}\times 100

                           =23.896 \ percent

What is the best definition for the atomic number in an element
arlik [135]
The atomic number in an element is usually how many protons the element has. For example, Hydrogen has a 1 on top of the H (on the periodic table), therefore, Hydrogen has 1 proton. Oxygen has an 8 on top of the O (on the periodic table) so therefore, Oxygen has 8 protons.

Anni [7]

Answer:

Homologous series is defined as a systematic order of structurally similar organic compound containing same functional group in their family and two adjacent members differ in their molecular formula by -CH2 unit.

Characteristics:

1.Various members of homologous series contain same functional group.

2.Various members of homologous series can be represented by common formula.

3. All members of a homologous series have almost similar chemical properties.

4. All members have common method of preparation.

5.Two successive members of homologous series have different chain length or difference in their molecular formula by -CH2 unit.

6.The members of homologous series show different physical properties.
