s sample of thorium-234 has a half life of 25 days. will all the thorium undergo radioactive decay in 50 days?
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

25% thorium will left after 50 days.

Explanation:

Half life:

A nuclear half is the time period of radioactive material in which its amount remain halved.

In given question it is stated that the half life thorium-234 is 25 days. Which means after passing the 25 days the amount of thorium must be halved of original amount.

For example,

If the original concentration was 100%, than after 25 days it will be 50%.

After 50 days amount of thorium left:

Number of half life = T (elapsed) / T half life

Number of half life = 50/25

Number of half life =  2

At first half life amount of thorium left = 100/2 = 50

After second half life amount of thorium left = 50/2 = 25

Total amount decayed = 50+25 = 75

Amount left after 50 days = 100-75 = 25

25% thorium will left after 50 days.

It is observed that the atoms of hydrogen in gas discharge tube emit radiations whose spectrum shows line characteristics (line
azamat

Answer: the line Spectra of hydrogen lies between the ultra-violet, visible light and infra-red of the electro magnetic spectrum

Explanation:

Electromagnetic radiation spans an wide range of wavelengths and frequencies. This range is called the electromagnetic spectrum. The electromagnetic spectrum is generally divided into seven regions, in order of decreasing wavelength and increasing energy and frequency. The 7 regions includes; radio waves, microwaves, infrared (IR), visible light, ultraviolet (UV), X-rays and gamma rays.

lower-energy radiation, such as radio waves, is expressed as frequency while microwaves, infrared, visible and UV light are usually expressed as wavelength and finally, higher-energy radiation such as X-rays and gamma rays, is expressed in terms of energy per photon.

Therefore, hydrogen lies between the ultra-violet, visible light and infra-red region of the electro magnetic spectrum.
