Answer:

26.56g

Explanation:

The half life of an isotope decay is the time transcurred when the initial amount of the isotope decays to the half of its amount.

For the problem, when 1 half life transcur, the sample has a mass of:

425g / 2 = 212.5g

When 2 half lives transcur:

212.5g / 2 = 106.25g

3 half lives:

106.25/2 = 53.13g

And the amount that is found after 4 half lives is:

53.13/2 =

<h3>26.56g</h3>

Answer:

Aqueous layer (1 M HCI)

Explanation:

First of us I want to remind you of the cliché in chemistry that like dissolves like. In solvent extraction, a mixture is dissolved in a system consisting of two immiscible solvents. One layer is organic while the other layer is aqueous.

Polar substances partition in the aqueous layer while nonpolar substances partition in the organic layer.

Since Copper sulfate is ionic, we will find it in the aqueous layer according to the old chemistry cliche.
