Answer: half life
Explanation: Radioactive decay follows first order kinetics and the time required for the decay of a radioactive material is calculated as follows:
t= time required
k= disintegration constant
x= amount of substance left after time t
a= initial amount of substance
when one half of the sample is decayed, one half of the sample remains and t can be represented as
at ,
Answer:
a. minimum voltage that must be supplied for a redox reaction to occur
c. always equal to Eanode - Ecathode
Explanation:
In an electrolytic cell; The electromotive force(the maximum standard potential difference) of the cell formed by the system is defined as the standard electrode potential of the right handed electrode minus the standard electrode potential of the left hand electrode. (i.e )
As we all known that the process by which chemical energy is being converted to electrical energy is called the Electrochemical cell. It consists of two half cells , an oxidation half cell reaction and a reduction half-cell reaction.The overall redox reaction results in a flow of electrons in an electric current which is produced by a minimum voltage.
Therefore, option a and c are both correct.
