Answer:
Explanation:
Octet, in chemistry, the eight-electron arrangement in the outer electron shell of the noble-gas atoms. This structure is held responsible for the relative inertness of the noble gases and the chemical behaviour of certain other elements.
Decay is a type of degradation reaction and thus is considered a first order reaction. thus the formula goes like this.
rate constant= 0.693/half life
so here...
rate constant= 0.693/1620 year^-1
As the earth is in the form of a sphere, the angle of incidence of the sun's rays at the earth's surface increases from the equator towards the poles and therefore the amount of heat received on a GIVEN AREA diminishes in the same direction. Temperature is therefore normally hottest near the equator and coolest near the poles.
