Latent heat of melting is the energy that a solid absorbs to change its phase as its liquid. During this process, since all energy is used to change the phase, the temperature is constant.
Here the latent energy of melting for 1 g of ice is 80 calories and that 1 g of ice only absorbed 60 calories. hence the phase is not changed because it requires more 20 calories to melt.
Hence 1 g of ice remains as its solid phase (ice).
Answer:
4
Explanation:
Avogadro’s number represent the number of the constituent particles which are present in one mole of the substance. It is named after scientist Amedeo Avogadro and is denoted by
.
Also, it is the number of particles in exactly 12.000 g of isotope carbon 12.
Avogadro constant:-
Hence,
Mass of
= 131.293+ n18.998 g
So,
molecules have a mass of 131.293+ n18.998 g
Also,
molecules have a mass of
g
So,
molecules have a mass of
g
Also, given mass = 0.172 g
Thus,




<u>Thus, value of n is 4.</u>
The half-life of this radioisotope : 12 hr
<h3>Further explanation
</h3>
The atomic nucleus can experience decay into 2 particles or more due to the instability of its atomic nucleus.
Usually radioactive elements have an unstable atomic nucleus.
General formulas used in decay:

t = duration of decay
t 1/2 = half-life
N₀ = the number of initial radioactive atoms
Nt = the number of radioactive atoms left after decaying during T time
t=48 hr

The half-life :

A neon atom has 2 principal energy levels.
