is directly related to the ideal gas law.
The ideal gas law states that:
. Rewriting this gives:
. R is the universal gas constant, so its value is fixed. For a given sample, n is the number of moles of the gas, so its value would be fixed too. This means that the value of
would be a fixed constant as well. Therefore, whatever the initial value
is, it should be equal to the final value

Strong electrolytes by definition are those compounds that completely dissociates into their component ions when dissolved in water. The chemical formula for the zinc fluoride is,
ZnF2
This means that each formula unit is composed of one atom of zinc and 2 atoms of fluoride. The ions comprising the unit are Zn²⁺ and F⁻. The dissociation is as shown below,
ZnF₂ --> Zn²⁺ + 2F⁻
When dissolved in water it is expected that the compound dissociates into three different ions, one Zn²⁺ and two F⁻.
A scientific law states a repeated observation about nature.
Answer: the time it takes for one-half of the sample to decay.
Explanation:
Half life is the amount of time taken by a radioactive material to decay to half of its original value.
Radioactive decay process is a type of process in which a less stable nuclei decomposes to a stable nuclei by releasing some radiations or particles like alpha, beta particles or gamma-radiations. The radioactive decay follows first order kinetics.
Half life is represented by 
= rate constant
Thus the half-life of a radioisotope is the time it takes for one-half of the sample to decay.
