Valence.
The electrons in the outer shell of an atom are called valence electrons.
Valence electrons determine whether the an element is ready form compounds. These electrons can be gained, lost, or shared in the formation of compounds.
The half life equation is -->P(t) = Pi (0.5) ^ (t/c)
c is equal to the element to reach its half-life (5 seconds)t is equal to the duration of time the element is expose to (20 seconds)Pi is the initial amount (340)0.5 is the base of this exponential function to represent half-life.P(t) is the expression for the function of time
P(20) = 340 (0.5)^20/5P(20) = 340 (0.5) ^4P(20)= 21.25 grams
Fraction = P(t)/Pi = P(20)/Pi =21.25/340 =1/16
Therefore, when given 20 seconds, 340 grams of Fluorine-21 will degrade to 21.25 grams OR 1/16 of its original mass.
Hope this method helps! (This is my answer btw, I think you may have accidentally posted twice?)
Frequency and energy have a direct relationshipWave Y transfers about three times the amount of energy as wave Z because energy and frequency have a direct relationship
