Explanation:

Metals and non-metals can be identified either by their position in the periodic table or by their properties.

he metal elements are found on the left hand side of the periodic table, and the non-metal elements are found on the right. You can imagine a zig-zag line, starting at B-Al-Si, separating metals from non-metals.

Hey I need help with this element, compound, and mixtures worksheet
Alika [10]

We should describe a little bit the legend.

A - Element - we should have circles with same color and not bonded together (argon gas).

B - Compound - here we may have circles with same or different color bonded together (water or oxygen which is a diatomic molecule).

C - Mixture of elements - circles with different colors not not bonded together (mixture of noble gases).

D - Mixture of compounds - circles with same or different color bonded together but we should see two or more types of connectivity between circles (mixture of water and ethanol).

E - Mixture of elements and compounds - circles with same or different color bonded together mixed with circles with same color and not bonded together (a mixture between oxygen which is a diatomic molecule and noble gas like argon).

Now we may answer the question:

1) B

2) C

3) D

4) D

5) A

6) B

7) B

8) E

9) E

10) D

A radioactive isotope of potassium (k) has a half-life of 20 minutes. if a 43 gram sample of this isotope is allowed to decay fo
Ksenya-84 [330]

Hello!

The half-life is the time of half-disintegration, it is the time in which half of the atoms of an isotope disintegrate.

We have the following data:

mo (initial mass) = 43 g

m (final mass after time T) = ? (in g)

x (number of periods elapsed) = ?

P (Half-life) = 20 minutes

T (Elapsed time for sample reduction) = 80 minutes

Let's find the number of periods elapsed (x), let us see:

T = x*P

80 = x*20

80 = 20\:x

20\:x = 80

x = \dfrac{80}{20}

\boxed{x = 4}

Now, let's find the final mass (m) of this isotope after the elapsed time, let's see:

m =  \dfrac{m_o}{2^x}

m =  \dfrac{43}{2^{4}}

m = \dfrac{43}{16}

\boxed{\boxed{m = 2.6875\:g}}\end{array}}\qquad\checkmark

I Hope this helps, greetings ... DexteR! =)
