Answer: The statement is true
Explanation:
The half-life of a radioactive isotope is the time taken for half of the total number of atoms in a given sample of the isotope to decay.
For instance
The half-life of radium is 1622 years. This means that if we have 1000 radium atoms at the beginning, then at the end of 1622 years, 500 atoms would have disintegrated, leaving 500 undecayed radium atoms
Thus, the statement is true
A chemical equation should be balanced, so that when you make calculations based on the equation you must be able to relate the products to the reactants or vice versa. An example of using equations for calculations in chemistry is with the subject stoichiometry.
Answer:
As explained
Explanation:
My reaction will be positive and I will feel elated that a new elements has been discovered as this will be a modification of the earlier claim by berzelius and the likes that there are over 106 known elements ; Metal, Non Metals and Metalloids.
However, fitting the new discovered element in between Tin and antimony may be an issue, as the physical properties of the new elements has to be known, its melting point, metals or non metals as this is paramount to be able to classify the elements. if the elements fits in between tin and antimony, it is an indication that the elements is mot likely a metal or non-mental and may belong to group IVB or VB. Another issue is, the discoverer will have to create his own periodic table to be able to stand in with the discovery of Dimitriy Mendelev.
