Plants can grow from sunlight and water.
Na = 23 x 2.40 = 55.2
O = 16 x 2.40 = 38.4
H = 1 x 2.40 = 2.40
55.2 + 38.4 + 2.4 = 96
2.40 mol of NaOH = 96 amu
An element cannot be broken down any further. Elements can be found on the periodic table
Answer : The half life of 28-Mg in hours is, 6.94
Explanation :
First we have to calculate the rate constant.
Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

where,
k = rate constant
t = time passed by the sample = 48.0 hr
a = initial amount of the reactant disintegrate = 53500
a - x = amount left after decay process disintegrate = 53500 - 10980 = 42520
Now put all the given values in above equation, we get


Now we have to calculate the half-life.



Therefore, the half life of 28-Mg in hours is, 6.94
