Explanation:
1) Initial mass of the Cesium-137=
= 180 mg
Mass of Cesium after time t = N
Formula used :
Half life of the cesium-137 =
= initial mass of isotope
N = mass of the parent isotope left after the time, (t)
= half life of the isotope
= rate constant

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get
Mass that remains after t years.

Therefore, the parent isotope remain after one half life will be, 100 grams.
2)
t = 70 years


N = 35.73 mg
35.73 mg of cesium-137 will remain after 70 years.
3)


N = 1 mg
t = ?

t = 224.80 years ≈ 225 years
After 225 years only 1 mg of cesium-137 will remain.
Answer:
Atoms with 5 or more valence electrons gain electrons forming a negative ion, or anion. why are outermost electrons only ones included in orbital filling diagram? they are the only ones involved in chemical reactions and bonding. ... 2s orbital is farther from the nucleus meaning it has more energy.
Explanation:
You just need to multiply the total mass by the decimal value of the part that is tin. 133.8*0.103=13.8g (following the rules of significant figures).
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
The reactivity of metals has a lot to do with their position in the electrochemical series. However, it is also known that metallic character decreases across the period. This implies that as we move from left to right along the periodic table. Sodium, magnesium, aluminum and silicon continues to decrease in metallic character. As a matter of fact, silicon is a metalloid and not a pure metal.
Sodium reacts with cold water to give a vigorous reaction,magnesium and aluminium reacts with steam at red heat.
Silicon does not react with water, even as steam, under normal conditions.
Answer:
0.583 kilojoules
Explanation:
The amount of heat required to pop a single kernel can be calculated using the formula as follows:
Q = m × c × ∆T
Where;
Q = amount of heat (J)
m = mass of water (g)
c = specific heat capacity of water (4.184 J/g°C)
∆T = change in temperature
From the given information, m = 0.905 g, initial temperature (room temperature) = 21°C , final temperature = 175°C, Q = ?
Q = m × c × ∆T
Q = 0.905 × 4.184 × (175°C - 21°C)
Q = 3.786 × 154
Q = 583.044 Joules
In kilojoules i.e. we divide by 1000, the amount of heat is:
= 583.04/1000
= 0.583 kilojoules
