Answer:
Radiation is energy that comes from a source and travels through space at the speed of light.
The powder sugar because has more contact area
<span>Hydrogen bonds are
approximately 5% of the bond strength of covalent bonds, for example (C-C or C-H
bonds).
Hydrogen bonds strength in water is approximately 20
kJ/mol, strenght of carbon-carbon bond is approximately 350 kJ/mol
and strengh of carbon-hydrogen bond is approximately 340 kJ/mol.
20 kJ/350 kJ = 0,057 = 5,7 %.</span>
An exponential decay law has the general form: A = Ao * e ^ (-kt) =>
A/Ao = e^(-kt)
Half-life time => A/Ao = 1/2, and t = 4.5 min
=> 1/2 = e^(-k*4.5) => ln(2) = 4.5k => k = ln(2) / 4.5 ≈ 0.154
Now replace the value of k, Ao = 28g and t = 7 min to find how many grams of Thalium-207 will remain:
A = Ao e ^ (-kt) = 28 g * e ^( -0.154 * 7) = 9.5 g
Answer 9.5 g.
