Hi there I believe it’s 18 please let me know if I’m wrong :)
Magnesium and I think its MG12 for the other part
Using the exponential decay model; we calculate "k"
We know that "A" is half of A0
A = A0 e^(k× 5050)
A/A0 = e^(5050k)
0.5 = e^(5055k)
In (0.5) = 5055k
-0.69315 = 5055k
k = -0.0001371
To calculate how long it will take to decay to 86% of the original mass
0.86 = e^(-0.0001371t)
In (0.86) = -0.0001371t
-0.150823 = -0.0001371 t
t = 1100 hours
According to this formula :
㏑[A] /[Ao] = - Kt
when we have Ao = 0.3 m
and K =0.46 s^-1
t = 20min = 0.2 x 60 =12 s
So by substitution :
㏑[A] / 0.3 = - 0.46 * 12
㏑[A] / 0.3 = - 5.52
by taking e^x for both side of the equation we can get [A]
∴[A] = 0.0012 mol dm^-3
