Hello!
The half-life is the time of half-disintegration, it is the time in which half of the atoms of an isotope disintegrate.
We have the following data:
mo (initial mass) = 20 g
m (final mass after time T) = 5 g
x (number of periods elapsed) = ?
P (Half-life) = ? (in minutes)
T (Elapsed time for sample reduction) = 8 minutes
Let's find the number of periods elapsed (x), let us see:






Now, let's find the half-life (P) of the radioactive sample, let's see:





I Hope this helps, greetings ... DexteR! =)
Answer:
The answer is 1.15m.
Since molality is defined as moles of solute divided by kg of solvent, we need to calculated the moles of H2SO4 and the mass of the solvent, which I presume is water.
We can find the number of H2SO4 moles by using its molarity
C=nV→nH2SO4=C⋅VH2SO4=6.00molesL⋅48.0⋅10−3L=0.288
Since water has a density of 1.00kgL, the mass of solvent is
m=ρ⋅Vwater=1.00kgL⋅0.250L=0.250 kg
Therefore, molality is
m=nmass.solvent=0.288moles0.250kg=1.15m
i think that the answer is d. millions of small rocky objects
Answer:
froth flotation is a technique commonly used in the mining industry. In this technique, particles of interest are physically separated from a liquid phase as a result of differences in the ability of air bubbles to selectively adhere to the surface of the particles, based upon their hydrophobicity.
Explanation:
Froth floatation method is commonly used to concentrate sulphide ore such as galena (PbS), zinc blende (ZnS) etc. (ii) In this method, the metaalic ore particles which are perferentially wetted by oil can be separated from gangue. (iii) In this method, the crushed ore is suspended in water and mixed with frothing agent such as pine oil, eucalyptus oil etc. (iv) A small quantity of sodium ethyl xanthate which act as a collector is also added. (v) A froth is generated by blowing air through this mixture. (vi) The collector molecules attach to the ore particles and make them water repellent. (vii) As a result, ore parrticles, wetted by the oil, rise to the surface along with the froth. (viii) The froth is skimmed off and dried to recover the concentration ore. (ix) The gangue particles that are preferentially wetted by water settle at the bottom.
