Answer:

CO is a chemical formula that contains one carbon atom (C) and one atom of oxygen (O). Altogether, CO translates to "carbon monoxide."

Explanation: Why monoxide and not dioxide? Well, the prefix mono means "one," and di means "two." Since there is only one oxygen atom (-oxide), then it must be monoxide! Voila!!

Is photosphere the layer that emits sunlight?

weqwewe [10]

Answer:

In our Sun, as in other stars, roughly 99.9% or so of all light emitted is emitted in a thin layer known as the photosphere, or light sphere. This is explained as follows. Interior to the photosphere the gas is ever denser and becomes far too opaque for any photon to emerge directly from that layer.

A certain radioactive isotope decays at a rate of 0.2% annually. Determine the half-life of this isotope, to the nearest year

pychu [463]

Answer:

The half-life of the radioactive isotope is 346 years.

Explanation:

The decay rate of the isotope is modelled after the following first-order linear ordinary differential equation:

$\frac{dm}{dt} = -\frac{m}{\tau}$

Where:

$m$ - Current isotope mass, measured in kilograms.

$t$ - Time, measured in years.

$\tau$ - Time constant, measured in years.

The solution of this differential equation is:

$m(t) = m_{o}\cdot e^{-\frac{t}{\tau} }$

Where $m_{o}$ is the initial mass of the isotope. It is known that radioactive isotope decays at a yearly rate of 0.2 % annually, then, the following relationship is obtained:

$\%e = \frac{m(t)-m(t+1)}{m(t)}\times 100\,\% = 0.2\,\%$

$1 - \frac{m(t+1)}{m(t)} = 0.002$

$1 - \frac{m_{o}\cdot e^{-\frac{t+1}{\tau} }}{m_{o}\cdot e^{-\frac{t}{\tau} }}=0.002$

$1 - e^{-\frac{1}{\tau} } = 0.002$

$e^{-\frac{1}{\tau} } = 0.998$

$-\frac{1}{\tau} = \ln 0.998$

The time constant associated to the decay is:

$\tau = -\frac{1}{\ln 0.998}$

$\tau \approx 499.500\,years$

Finally, the half-life of the isotope as a function of time constant is given by the expression described below:

$t_{1/2} = \tau \cdot \ln 2$

If $\tau \approx 499.500\,years$ , the half-life of the isotope is:

$t_{1/2} = (499.500\,years)\cdot \ln 2$

$t_{1/2}\approx 346.227\,years$

The half-life of the radioactive isotope is 346 years.
