Answer: The rate constant is
Explanation ;
Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

where,
k = rate constant = ?
t = age of sample = 4.26 min
a = initial amount of the reactant = 2.56 mg
a - x = amount left after decay process = 2.50 mg
Now put all the given values in above equation to calculate the rate constant ,we get



Thus rate constant is [tex]0.334s^{-1}
Heat energy is required.
In distillation, the solution is first heated, where heat energy is required, such as using a bunsen burner.
When the solution is heated, the water may reach its boiling point and evaporate. However, salt does not. When water molecules evaporates, it travels through a condenser that cools it down into liquid again. Therefore we get pure water. Salt is also obtained in the original beaker.
Therefore to first start this process, heat energy is required.
It would be plastic Becaus we can recreate things with plastic and other things that are recyclable. Since,we mostly cut down trees everyday for paper,not knowing that we are wasting natural resources, and destroying animal homes and food.
Explanation:
The magnet uses electromagnetic induction meaning it can be readily magnetized and demagnetized (using electricity) when required. When electricity is switched on, it becomes magnetized and lifts an object and when electricity is switched off, it loses magnetism and releases the object.
The magnetic is able to lift heavy objects because it has powerful conductor material (ferromagnetic iron) and the number of electromagnetic coils is many to induce a powerful magnetic force. The electric current, inducing the magnetism, is also powerful.
