Answer:

Cambrian

Explanation:

The fossil from the Cambrian is older than the one from the Triassic. This is because in the geologic time scale, the Cambrian is older than the Triassic.

  • Absolute age of the Cambrian is between 541 - 484mya
  • It is the first geological period in the Paleozoic era.
  • The Triassic is the earliest period of the Mesozoic era
  • It occurred about 237mya ago.
  • Therefore, the fossils which corresponds to the Cambrian is the oldest.

The half-life of radon gas is approximately four days. Four weeks after the introduction of radon into a sealed room, the fracti
maksim [4K]

The fraction of the original amount remaining is closest to 1/128

<h3>Determination of the number of half-lives</h3>
  • Half-life (t½) = 4 days
  • Time (t) = 4 weeks = 4 × 7 = 28 days
  • Number of half-lives (n) =?

n = t / t½

n = 28 / 4

n = 7

<h3>How to determine the amount remaining </h3>
  • Original amount (N₀) = 100 g
  • Number of half-lives (n) = 7
  • Amount remaining (N)=?

N = N₀ / 2ⁿ

N = 100 / 2⁷

N = 0.78125 g

<h3>How to determine the fraction remaining </h3>
  • Original amount (N₀) = 100 g
  • Amount remaining (N)= 0.78125 g
  • Fraction remaining =?

Fraction remaining = N / N₀

Fraction remaining = 0.78125 / 100

Fraction remaining = 1/128

Based on the chemical formula and state of matter, which of these substances will conduct electricity?
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

CuSO4(aq)

Explanation:

The aqueous form of copper sulfate will conduct electricity.

The Solid form will not be a good conductor.

C₅H₁₂ will not conduct electricity

CO₂ will not conduct electricity

  • Copper sulfate is an ionic compound
  • In aqueous solutions or molten forms, ionic compounds can conduct an electric current using free mobile ions as carriers.
  • This way, they are electrolytes.
  • In solid state, the ions are arranged into a crystal lattice and will not conduct a current of electricity.

What would happen if this cell were moved from pure water to a seawater solution?
Reika [66]
<span>The cell would swell and burst, because the 20% salt solution is hypotonic with respect to the cell, causing a net movement of water into the cell. Example, water moves from the blood filtrate that will form urine. The same will do while pure water moved to seawater.</span>
