Answer:Answer: The step that is NOT necessary to complete before a cuvette is placed into the spectrophotometer is option B (Write, in ink, either sample or blank on the side of the cuvette to keep track of them)
Explanation: spectrophotometer is an instrument used to measure the light intensity absorbed after being passed through a solution. Before the absorbance of the sample solution, a solvent solution called blank is used for the calibration of the machine and this blank solvent is placed in a cuvette. The procedure usually comes first before the main sample is processed. Therefore there is no need to
Write, in ink, either sample or blank on the side of the cuvette to keep track of them. This is so since sample and blank is not absorbed at the same time by the machine.

Answer:
There were originally 8 atoms of Potassium-40.
Explanation:
The half-life of a radioactive material is the time taken for half the original material to decay or the time required for a quantity of the radioactive substance to reduce to half of its initial value.
If the original material formed without any Argon-40, it means that the atoms originally present were Potassium-40 atoms.
Presently, there are 7 Argon-40 atoms for every 1 of Potassium-40, we can deduce the number of half-lifes the Potassium-40 has undergone as follows :
After one half-life, (1/2) there will be one Potassium-40 atom for every Argon-40 atom.
After a second half life, 1/2 × 1/2 = 1/4: there will be one Potassium-40 atom for every three atoms of Argon-40.
After a third half-life, 1/4 × 1/2 = 1/8: there will be one Potassium-40 atom for every 7 atoms of Argon-40.
Since there are 1/8 atoms of Potassium-40 presently, there were originally 8 atoms of Potassium-40.
