The general equation for radioactive decay is;
N = N₀e^(-λt)
x - decay constant (λ) - rate of decay
t- time
N - amount remaining after t days , since we are calculating the half life, amount of time it takes for the substance to to be half its original value, its N₀/2
N₀ - amount initially present
substituting the values
N₀/2 = N₀e^(-0.081t)
0.5 = e^(-0.081t)
ln (0.5) = -0.081t
-0.693 = -0.081t
t = 0.693 / 0.081
= 8.55
half life of substance is 8.55 days
Because it relates to more than one branch of knowledge. It combines more than one academic disiplines.
A, They Lower The Activation Energy.
Answer: D. test tubes, thermometers, etc
I think this is the correct answer. Sorry if it is not.
Explanation:
Answer:
Combustion reaction
Explanation:
Let's consider the following balanced equation.
CH₄ + 2 O₂ ⇒ CO₂ + 2 H₂O
This reaction is known as a combustion reaction, in which a compound reacts with oxygen to form a compound of carbon and water.
- If the product is carbon dioxide, the combustion is complete.
- If the product is carbon monoxide or carbon, the combustion is incomplete.
