Chemistry
1 answer:
Cloud [144]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

13 years

Explanation:

From;

0.693/t1/2 = 2.303/t log (No/N)

Where;

t1/12 = half-life of Cobalt-60 = 5.3 years

t = time taken = the unknown

No = mass of radioactive material originally present = 5.2 g

N = mass of radioactive material at time t = 0.95 g

Substituting values;

0.693/5.3 = 2.303/t log (5.2/0.95)

0.131 = 2.303/t(0.738)

0.131 = 1.6996/t

t =  1.6996/0.131

t = 12.97 years

t = 13 years(to the nearest whole number)

Water vapor is condensed steam. <br><br> True <br> False
adelina 88 [10]

False, because water vapor, water vapour or aqueous vapor, is the gaseous phase of water. It is one state of water within the hydrosphere. Water vapor can be produced from the evaporation or boiling of liquid water or from the sublimation of ice. Unlike other forms of water, water vapor is invisible.

What is the similarity between a meander and a gully?
andre [41]
A meander, in general, is a bend in a sinuous watercourse or river. A meander forms when moving water in a stream erodes the outer banks and widens its valley, and the inner part of the river has less energy and deposits silt.
