The first thing to do is calculate how many half lives have expired. So take the time of 72 seconds and divide by the length of a half life which is 38 seconds. So
72 / 38 = 1.894736842
So we're over 1 half life, but not quite 2 half lives. So you'll have something less than 12/2 = 6 grams, but more than 12/4 = 3 grams.
The exact answer is done by dividing 12 by 2 raised to the power of 1.8947. So let's calculate 2^1.8947 power
= 12 g / (e ^ ln(2)*1.8947)
= 12 g / (e ^ 0.693147181 * 1.8947)
= 12 g / (e ^ 1.313305964)
= 12 g / 3.718446464
= 3.227154167 g
So rounded to 2 significant figures gives 3.2 grams.</span>
Hi
The answer to this question is B. Reaction
<u>Answer</u>
The combined displacement is 2km north
<u>Explanation</u>
Since displacement is a vector quantity, we take into account the direction.
Good for us all the displacement vectors are in the same dimension, so we can make north positive and south negative or vice-versa.
We now add to obtain,
This will simplify to
Therefore the combined displacement is 2km north
Answer: A compound is a substance formed when two or more elements are chemically joined. Water, salt, and sugar are examples of compounds. When the elements are joined, the atoms lose their individual properties and have different properties from the elements they are composed of.
