Answer:

1 million years

Explanation:

The half life of a radioactive isotope refers to the time it takes for the radioactive isotope to decay to half of its original amount.

The half life of a radioactive isotope is independent of the amount of starting material. Hence, whether the amount of starting material is small or large, the half life of the substance remains the same.

Hence the half life of 2 green marbles and 500,000 green marbles is 1 million years.

stepan [7]

Thermosoftening plastics melt when they are heated.This means that they can be recycled , which involves melting them before making a new product. Thermosoftening plastics do not have covalent bonds between neighbouring polymer molecules, so the molecules can move over each other when heated and the plastic melts.

Suppose a sodium hydroxide solution was standardized against pure solid primary standard grade KHP. If 0.4798 g of KHP required

Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

The NaOH solution has a molarity of 0.052 M

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of KHP = 0.4798 grams

Volume of NaOH= 45.22 mL = 0.04522 L

Molar mass of NaOH = 40 g/mol

Molar mass of KHP = 204.22 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate moles of KHP

Moles KHP = mass KHP / Molar mass KHP

Moles KHP = 0.4798 grams / 204.22 g/mol

Moles KHP = 0.00235 moles

Step 3: Calculate moles of NaOH

KHP here acts as a mono-acid so, the number of moles of NaOH = number of moles KHP = 0.00235 moles

Step 4: Calculate molarity of NaOH

Molarity NaOH = moles NaOH / volume NaOH

Molarity NaOH = 0.00235 moles / 0.04522 L

Molarity NaOH = 0.052 M

The NaOH solution has a molarity of 0.052 M

Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere can be reduced by _.*

pychu [463]

Answer:

As the use of plants as carbon sinks can be undone by events such as wildfires, the long-term reliability of these approaches has been questioned. Carbon dioxide that has been removed from the atmosphere can also be stored in the Earth's crust by injecting it into the subsurface, or in the form of insoluble carbonate salts (mineral sequestration).
