Answer:
X = 4
Explanation:
Start 2800
End 175
175 = 2800x(0.5)^X
175/2800 = 0.5^X
0.0625 = 0.5^X
log(0.5 x) = log(0.0625)
x · log(0.5) = log(0.0625)
-0.301x = -1.204
x = -1.204/-0.301
x = 4
Answer:
answer A
Explanation:
A) the quantity of usable energy declines with each transformation → True . Since the entropy increases , the amount of energy that can not be converted to useful energy increases and since the total amount of energy is conserved, the quantity of useful energy decreases.
B) energy can be neither created nor destroyed → False in the context of entropy , since the energy is conserved regardless of the changes in entropy (First law → conservation of energy vs second law → increase of entropy)
C) life should be impossible → False . Since the second law states that the entropy of the <u>universe </u>increases with time . Then the system (life) can experience a decrease in entropy at the expense of a larger increase in entropy of the surroundings ( so the net increase is positive)
D) it is not possible to observe an increase in molecular organisation → False . Same as C. A system can experience a decrease in entropy at the expense of a larger increase in entropy of the surroundings ( so the net increase is positive)

Since Br-80 does not exist, maybe that means Br-79 or Br-81 have very unequal abundances. For example, Br-79 may have 75% abundance whereas Br-81 may have 25% abundance.
