Answer : The substances half life in days is, 5.6 days.
Step-by-step explanation :
Half life : It is defined as the amount of time taken by a radioactive material to decay to half of its original value.
All radioactive decays follow first order kinetics.
The relation between the half-life and rate constant is:
where,
k = rate constant = 0.1235 per days
= half-life
Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:
Thus, the substances half life in days is, 5.6 days.
Answer:
30 gallons of 20% acid solution should be mixed.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x gallons of a 20% acid solution was mixed with 30 gallons of a 40% solution, to obtain a mixture of 30% acid solution.
Therefore, final volume of the solution will be (x + 30) gallons.
Now concept to solve this question is
20%.(x) + 40%.(30) = 30%.(x + 30)
0.20(x) + 0.40(30) = 0.30(x + 30)
0.20x + 12 = 0.30x + 9
0.30x - 0.20x = 12 - 9
.10x = 3
x =
x = 30 gallons
Therefore, 30 gallons of the 20% acid solution should be mixed.
