Answer:
Half life is the time taken by a radio active isotope to reduce by half of its original amount. Radium-226 has a half life of 1602 years meaning that it would take 1602 years for a mass of radium to reduce by half.
Number of half lives in 9612 years = 9612/1602 = 6 half lives
New mass = Original mass x (1/2)n where n is the number of half lives.
Therefore, New mass= 500 x (1/2)∧6
= 500 x 0.015625
= 7.8125 g
Hence the mass of radium after 9612 years will be 7.8125 grams.

Why do molecules combined into chains?
It should be 3 feet... I did something like this one day in school but I’m trying to remember
The balanced equation for the given reaction:
C₆H₁₂O₆ (glucose) + 6O₂→ 6CO₂ + 6H₂O
So in the balanced equation the coefficients before glucose, oxygen, water and carbon dioxide are 1, 6, 6 and 6 respectively.
Therefore, the sum of the coefficients in the balanced equation
= 1 + 6 + 6 + 6
= 19
The correct answer is 19.
Answer:
a) 320: two significant figures.
b) 2,366: four significant figures.
c) 73.0: three significant figures.
d. 532.5: four significant figures.
Explanation:
Hello there!
In this case, according to the given information, it turns out possible for us to write each number by knowing we move the decimal places to the right as much as the exponent is, and also, we count every figure, even zeros, because they are to the right of the first nonzero digit:
a) 320: two significant figures because the rightmost zero is not preceded o followed by a decimal place.
b) 2,366: four significant figures.
c) 73.0: three significant figures, because the zero is followed by the decimal place.
d. 532.5: four significant figures.
Regards!
