Answer:

t \approx 50.4\,min

Step-by-step explanation:

The time constant of the element X is:

\tau = \frac{13\,min}{\ln 2}

\tau = 18.755\,min

The decay function has the following form:

\frac{m}{m_{o}} = e^{-\frac{t}{\tau} }

t = -\tau \cdot \ln \frac{m}{m_{o}}

t = -(13\,min)\cdot \ln \left(\frac{11\,g}{530\,g} \right)

t \approx 50.4\,min

A certain bleach is 5% active ingredients. In 10 gallons of this bleach, how much is active ingredients
aalyn [17]
You didn't include how many gallons each container of bleach has, so I'm just going assume one container has a gallon inside. if 5% of one gallon is active Ingredients, and there are 10 gallons, then that's 1,000%. (one gal = 100%. 100x10= 1,000) 5 x 10= 50, so 50% of 1,000% is active ingredients, which can be simplified to 5% anyway, so 5%
