1 mole of iron-59 would mass 59 grams, so 0.133 picograms would be 0.133x10^-12 / 59 = 2.25x10^-15 moles of iron-59. Multiplying by Avogadro's number, we can determine the number of atoms of iron-59 we have, so: 2.25x10^-15 * 6.02214x10^23 = 1.35x10^9
Since we have 242 decays over a period of 1 second, we can divide the
number of atoms left by the original number of atoms
(1350000000 - 242)/1350000000
= 1349999758/1350000000
= 0.999999820740741
And calculate the logarithm to base 2 of that quotient.
ln(0.999999820740741)/ln(2)
= -1.79259275281191x10^-7/0.693147180559945
= -2.58616467481524x10^-7
The reciprocal of this number will be the half life in seconds. So
-1/2.58616467481524x10^-7
= -3866729.79388461
And dividing by 3600 (number of seconds in an hour) will give the half-life in
hours.
-3866729.79388461 / 3600 = -1074.091609
So the half life in hours to 3 significant figures is 1070 hours.
Dividing that figure by 24 gives a half life of 44.58 days which is in pretty close agreement to the official half-life of 44.495 days for iron-59.
Plants and wetlands purify water by acting as filter media. The roots of the plants and the wetlands would trap pollutants like sediments and hold onto the. In wetlands, the flow of water is slow allowing for the sediments to settle due to gravity onto the bottom where the plants would accumulate them into place. With this, excess nutrients would be remove and will prevent polluting bodies of water. Also, bacteria like E. coli and Salmonella can be filtered out from the water. There are plants that works excellent for filtering out pollutants like the lilies, hornwort, bulrushes and rushes.
Answer:
the particles of matter are arranged in different ways for the different states
Explanation:
because solid liquid and gas all three matters have different states for example the particles in a solid are closely packEd and form of movement is vibration
Answer : first opinion and also last
Expiation : Note that these last two reactions, and 2H + 2H → 4He + γ, .Nuclear fusion is a reaction in which two nuclei are combined to form a larger nucleus. Nuclear fusion is a reaction in which two nuclei are combined, or fused, to form a larger nucleus. We know that all nuclei have less mass than the sum of the masses of the protons and neutrons that form them. The missing mass times c2 equals the binding energy of the nucleus—the greater the binding energy, the greater the missing mass.
