Answer:
So, you're dealing with a sample of cobalt-60. You know that cobalt-60 has a nuclear half-life of
5.30
years, and are interested in finding how many grams of the sample would remain after
1.00
year and
10.0
years, respectively.
A radioactive isotope's half-life tells you how much time is needed for an initial sample to be halved.
If you start with an initial sample
A
0
, then you can say that you will be left with
A
0
2
→
after one half-life passes;
A
0
2
⋅
1
2
=
A
0
4
→
after two half-lives pass;
A
0
4
⋅
1
2
=
A
0
8
→
after three half-lives pass;
A
0
8
⋅
1
2
=
A
0
16
→
after four half-lives pass;

Explanation:
now i know the answer
A residue from a gunshot is most likely gun powder, which tells you what kind of bullet was shot and the type of gun that was used to shoot the target/victim/person. Some complications may be that there is more than one gun or weapon which uses that residue, so it may be hard to pinpoint it and the bullet can't really tell you who it is unless there's DNA on the bullet, and the chemicals of the bullet may even destroy evidence.
There is acetone, xylene, and toluene in spray paint
The transitions which fall to the lowest principle position release the greatest energies. In this case, this would be the transition from the 5p to the 3s orbital (a Paschen transition).
Hope this helps!
