Answer:
1.25 gram of cesium-137 will remain.
Explanation:
Given data:
Half life of cesium-137 = 30 year
Mass of cesium-137 = 5.0 g
Mass remain after 60 years = ?
Solution:
Number of half lives passed = Time elapsed / half life
Number of half lives passed = 60 year / 30 year
Number of half lives passed = 2
At time zero = 5.0 g
At first half life = 5.0 g/2 = 2.5 g
At 2nd half life = 2.5 g/ 2 = 1.25 g
Thus. 1.25 gram of cesium-137 will remain.
Answer:
The mass of an atom is found in its nucleus.
Explanation:
An atom is made of three different particles: protons, neutrons and electrons.
Protons (positive charge) and neutrons (no charge) each have a mass of 1 AMU. They are both found in the nucleus (centre) of the atom.
Electrons (negative charge) are considered to have a mass of 0. Their mass is not actually 0, but very close so we do not count them. They are not in the nucleus, but found in shells surrounding the atom.
To calculate the mass of an atom, we add the number of protons and the number of electrons.
m = P + N
The formula for kinetic energy is KE=1/2(mv²). Since both mass and velocity are multiplied by each other, particle with a larger mass needs to be moving slower than a particle with less mass if both have the same kinetic energy. You can think of it as 2KE/m=v² or 2KE/v²=m, If you increase the mass the velocity needs to decrease to keep the same KE value.
I hope this helps. Let me know in the comments if anything is unclear.
