5.30

years, and are interested in finding how many grams of the sample would remain after

1.00

year and

10.0

years, respectively.

A radioactive isotope's half-life tells you how much time is needed for an initial sample to be halved.

If you start with an initial sample

Convert mass to moles for both reactants. (Round to 2 significant figures.)
shepuryov [24]
Mass = mr x moles
Mr of CuCl2 = ( 63.5) + ( 35.5 x 2) = 134.5
2.5 = 134.5 x moles
2.5 / 134.5 = moles
Moles = 0.019 (2DP)

0.25g of Al
Mr of Al = 27
0.25 = 27 x moles
0.25/ 27 = 0.0093 moles (2sf)

Hope this helps :)
