The amount of sample that is left after a certain period of time, given the half-life, h, can be calculated through the equation.
A(t) = A(o) (1/2)^(t/d)
where t is the certain period of time. Substituting the known values,
A(t) = (20 mg)(1/2)^(85.80/14.30)
Solving,
A(t) = 0.3125 mg
Hence, the answer is 0.3125 mg.
Answer:
Percent error = 12.5%
Explanation:
In a measurement you can find percent error following the formula:
Percent error = |Measured value - Accepted Value| / Acepted value * 100
Based on the data of the problem, accepted value is 22.4L and the measured Value (Value of Sara) was 19.6L.
Replacing:
Percent error = |Measured value - Accepted Value| / Acepted value * 100
Percent error = |19.6L - 22.4L| / 22.4L * 100
Percent error = |-2.8L| / 22.4L * 100
Percent error = 2.8L / 22.4L * 100
Percent error = 12.5%
