8 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Have the class stand up. Tell them that they will be flipping the penny (you will tell them when); each time they flip one half life will have passed. If their penny lands on heads, they are radioactive and have decayed and they should sit; if their penny lands on tails, they have not decayed and may remain standing.

What is the mass of 3.5 l of co2(g)? (density = 0.0019 g/ml, answer to hundredths place)?
monitta
Density is defined as mass per unit volume.
density =  \frac{mass}{volume}
the mass of 1 mL of CO₂ is  - 0.0019 g
3.5 L = 3500 mL 
then the mass of 3500 mL of CO₂ is - 0.0019 g/mL x 3500 mL = 6.65 g
mass of 3.5 L of CO₂ is 6.65 g
