Answer: Between 1 and 2.
Explanation:
Half life is the amount of time taken by a radioactive material to decay to half of its original value.
............(1)
where,
a = amount of reactant left after n-half lives = 40
= Initial amount of the reactant = 100
n = number of half lives
Putting in the values we get:

taking log on both sides


Thus half-lives that have elapsed is between 1 and 2
We are given with
136 g P4
excess oxygen
The complete combustion reaction is
P4 + 5O2 => 2P2O5
Converting the amount of P4 to moles
136/123.9 = 1.098 moles
Using stoichiometry
moles P2O5 = 1.098 x 2 = 2.195 moles P2O5
Answer:
Cost to supply enough vanillin is 
Explanation:
Threshold limit of vanillin in air is
per litre means there should be
of vanillin in 1L of air to detect aroma of vanillin.

So, 
So amount of vanillin should be present to detect = 
As cost of 50 g vanillin is
therefore cost of
vanillin =
