Answer:

after 45 days 9 g left

Explanation:

Given data:

Half life Na-24 = 15 days

Mass of sample = 72 g

Mass remain after 45 days = ?

Solution:

Number of half lives passed:

Number of half lives = time elapsed / half life

Number of half lives = 45 days / 15 days

Number of half lives = 3

At time zero total amount = 72 g

After first half life = 72 g/ 2= 36 g

At 2nd half life = 36 g/2 = 18 g

At 3rd half life = 18 g/2 = 9 g

Thus after 45 days 9 g left.

Chlorine and bromine are elements in Group VII.
Goryan [66]

Explanation:

Bromine is a chemical element with the symbol Br and atomic number 35. It is the third-lightest halogen, and is a fuming red-brown liquid at room temperature that evaporates readily to form a similarly coloured vapour. Its properties are intermediate between those of chlorine and iodine. Isolated independently by two chemists, Carl Jacob Löwig (in 1825) and Antoine Jérôme Balard (in 1826), its name was derived from the Ancient Greek βρῶμος ("stench"), referring to its sharp and disagreeable smell.
