What is the half life of the element in the picture HELP BRAINLIEST

Answer:

6 days

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Original amount (N₀) = 100 mg

Amount remaining (N) = 6. 25 mg

Time (t) = 24 days

Half life (t½) =?

Next, we shall determine the decay constant. This can be obtained as follow:

Original amount (N₀) = 100 mg

Amount remaining (N) = 6. 25 mg

Time (t) = 24 days

Decay constant (K) =?

Log (N₀/N) = kt / 2.303

Log (100/6.25) = k × 24 / 2.303

Log 16 = k × 24 / 2.303

1.2041 = k × 24 / 2.303

Cross multiply

k × 24 = 1.2041 × 2.303

Divide both side by 24

K = (1.2041 × 2.303) / 24

K = 0.1155 /day

Finally, we shall determine the half-life of the isotope as follow:

Decay constant (K) = 0.1155 /day

Half life (t½) =?

t½ = 0.693 / K

t½ = 0.693 / 0.1155

t½ = 6 days

Therefore, the half-life of the isotope is 6 days

Harman [31]
Halogens are a group of elements consisting of Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, Iodine and Astatine. In their ionic form, they have a superscript of -1, for example, chloride ion is Cl-1. These means that they readily accept one electron in order to achieve the Octet rule. The Octet rule states that each atom must contain 8 electrons in their valence shell for it to be stable. The most stable set of elements are the noble gases. Because they already fulfill the Octet rule, they no longer take part in reactions. Halogens are also very electronegative, meaning, they attract more electrons toward them. This is also a consequence of the Octet rule.

From the choices, the answers would be:
<span>they require only one electron to complete their outer shell
they have a high electronegativity</span>

Elena held a rock weighing 1 N in her hand. The rock has no velocity. <br> KE________?
nignag [31]

KE = 0

<h3>Further explanation  </h3>

Energy is the ability to do work  

Energy because its motion is expressed as Kinetic energy (KE) which can be formulated as:  

\large{\boxed{\bold{KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2}}}

So for two objects that have the same speed, the greater the mass of the object, the greater the kinetic energy  

The stone in hand is in a motionless state (at rest) so that its velocity (v) = 0, so it has no kinetic energy

But this stone can have <em>potential energy that is gained due to its height</em>
