Answer:

The correct answer is - B.  It measures the tendency of a radioisotope to decay radioactively.

Explanation:

The half-life of the radioactive sample is the time it takes to decay to its half amount of the unstable nuclei of its initial amount. It is radioactively decays to its half value or in simple words, it takes the time to decay an unstable nuclei to decay to its half value.

It can take milliseconds to million years to disintegrate the different unstable nuclei of a radioactive substance to disintegrate its half amount to a stable substance.

When Acid Rain falls on limestone, the rock is eroded and carbon dioxide is produced.
Sav [38]

<em>The formula of calcium carbonate is CaCO3 </em>

<em>The formula of nitric acid is HNO3. </em>

<em>When put together:</em>

<em>CaCO3 + HNO3 </em><em>= </em><em>Ca(NO3)2 + CO2 + H2O </em>

<em> The balanced equation:</em>

<em> CaCO3 + 2HNO3</em><em> = </em><em>Ca(NO3)2 + CO2 + H2O </em>

A sample of gas occupies 280 mL when the pressure is 560.00 mm Hg . If the temperature remains constant , what is the new pressu
vichka [17]

Answer : The new pressure if the volume changes to 560.0 mL is, 280 mmHg

Explanation :

According to the Boyle's, law, the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume of gas at constant temperature and moles of gas.

P\propto \frac{1}{V}

or,

P_1V_1=P_2V_2

where,

P_1 = initial pressure = 560.00 mmHg

P_2 = final pressure = ?

V_1 = initial volume = 280 mL

V_2 = final volume = 560.0 mL

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

560.00mmHg\times 280 mL=P_2\times 560.0 mL

P_2=280mmHg

Therefore, the new pressure if the volume changes to 560.0 mL is, 280 mmHg
