If a 125 gms of radioactive element has a half life of 60 min how many half lives will it go through to become 3.90625 gms

Chemistry
1 answer:
Sonja [21]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

  • 5

Explanation:

Let the number of half lives be x

<u>Solve this equation to find the value of x:</u>

  • 125*(1/2)ˣ = 3.90625
  • (0.5)ˣ = 3.90625 / 125
  • (0.5)ˣ = 0.03125
  • log (0.5)ˣ  = log 0.03125
  • x =  log 0.03125 / log 0.5
  • x = 5

Calculate the mass percent of 0.485 g of H, which reacts with oxygen to form 2.32 g H2O
Nataly [62]

Answer:

Mass % of hydrogen = 20.9 %

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of hydrogen = 0.485 g

Mass of water = 2.32 g

Mass percent of hydrogen = ?

Solution:

Mass % of hydrogen = mass of hydrogen / mass of water × 100

Mass % of hydrogen = 0.485 g/ 2.32 g × 100

Mass % of hydrogen = 0.209  × 100

Mass % of hydrogen = 20.9 %

Felicity lists the factors that affect the shape of Florida
umka2103 [35]
1. Humidity

2. Temperature

3. Rainfall

 In general, the electron pairs in a molecule that will adopt a shape to maximize their distance far apart, even charges repel each other as well as unlike charges attract,

 for example H2O has two lone electrons pairs but it adopts an angular shape. Hope this help!!

How would you prepare 2.5 L of a 0.800M solution of KNO3?
statuscvo [17]
First  find the mass of <span>solute:

Molar mass KNO</span>₃ = <span>101.1032 g/mol

mass =  Molarity * molar mass * volume

mass = 0.800 * 101.1032 * 2.5

mass = 202.2064 g of KNO</span>₃

<span>To prepare 2.5 L (0800 M) of KNO3 solution, must weigh 202.2064 g of salt, dissolve in a Beker, transfer with the help of a funnel of transfer to a volumetric flask, complete with water up to the mark, capping the balloon and finally shake the solution to mix.</span>

hope this helps!

An example of a homogeneous mixture is 1. oil and vinegar dressing. 2. concrete. 3. a mixture of salt and pepper. 4. salt water
Sidana [21]

A mixture in which composition is constant throughout the mixture is said to be homogeneous mixture.

Now, oil and vinegar dressing is not considered as a homogeneous mixture because composition is not uniform.

Concrete is made up of three components. Thus, composition is not uniform, so it is not a homogeneous mixture.

A mixture of salt and pepper, when salt is mixed in pepper then the mixture is not uniform as white flecks of salt and black flecks of pepper can be seen in the mixture. Thus, it is not a homogeneous mixture.

Salt water is uniform mixture. Thus,  it is a homogeneous mixture.

Thus, salt water is the correct answer.
