What happens when magma cools during the rock cycle
Mumz [18]

Answer:

Si las condiciones para que el magma permanezca líquido no perduran, el magma se enfriará y solidificará en una roca ígnea. Una roca que se enfría en el interior de la Tierra se denomina intrusiva o plutónica y su enfriamiento será muy lento, produciendo una estructura cristalina de granos grueso.

The atomic mass is the sum of the number of ________ and ________ in the nucleus of an atom. Choose two answers from the options
iVinArrow [24]

Answer :

The atomic mass is the sum of the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom.

Explanation :

Atomic number : it is defined as the number of protons or number of electrons.

Atomic number = number of protons = number of electrons

Mass number or atomic mass : It is defined as the sum of the number of protons and the number of neutrons.

Mass number or atomic mass = Number of protons + Number of neutrons

For example :

Number of protons in carbon = 6

Number of neutrons in carbon = 6

Mass number or atomic mass = Number of protons + Number of neutrons

Mass number or atomic mass = 6 + 6

Mass number or atomic mass = 12

Thus, the atomic mass is the sum of the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom.

An original sample of the radioisotope fluorine-21 had a mass of 80.0 milligrams. Only 20.0 milligrams of this original sample r
lyudmila [28]

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option 3.

<u>Explanation:</u>

All the radioisotope decay processes follow first order kinetics.

Rate law expression for first order kinetics is given by the equation:

k=\frac{2.303}{t}\log\frac{a}{a-x}

where,  

k = rate constant  = ?

t = time taken for decay process = 8.32 seconds

a = initial amount of the reactant  = 80 mg

a - x = amount left after decay process  = 20 mg

Putting values in above equation, we get:

k=\frac{2.303}{8.32sec}\log\frac{80g}{20}\\\\k=0.166sec^{-1}

The equation used to calculate half life for first order kinetics:

t_{1/2}=\frac{0.693}{k}

where,

t_{1/2} = half life of the reaction = ?

k = 0.166sec^{-1}

Putting values in above equation, we get:

t_{1/2}=\frac{0.693}{0.166sec^{-1}}=4.16sec

Hence, the correct answer is Option 3.
