It is important because some places are bias, some think there is no global warming at all!
Answer:
WordPad (also referred to as its description name WordPad MFC Application) is the basic word processor that has been included with almost all versions of Microsoft Windows from Windows 95 on. It is more advanced than Microsoft Notepad, and simpler than Microsoft Word and Microsoft Works (last updated in 2007)
Answer:
Reactants, Activation energy, Energy released by the reaction and Products
Explanation:
This energy profile is that of an exothermic reaction. In an exothermic reaction, heat is liberated to the surrounding. The surrounding becomes hotter than the environment.
The first box to the left is the reactants which signifies the species combining together.
The topmost box is the activation energy which is the energy barrier that must be over come before a reaction takes place.
The box underneath is the energy change. Here, energy is being released.
The right most box is the product of the reaction.
Answser:
3.77 mg of K-40 decayed into Ar-40.
Data:
1) K-40, Ca-40, Ar-40: all three have the same atomic mass
2) 90%<span> of the potassium-40 will decay into calcium-40
3) 10% of the potassium-40 will decay into argon-40.</span>
4) K-40 inside the rock = 0.81 mg
5) Ar-40 trapped = 0.377 mg
Soltuion:
1) 0.377 mg of Ar-40 is the 10% of the mass of the K-40 that decayed
=> x * 10% = 0.377 mg => x * 0.1 = 0.377mg
=> x = 0.377 mg / 0.1 = 3.77 mg
That means that 3.77 mg of K-40 decayed into Ar-40. And this is the answer to the question.
Additionaly, you can analyze the content of all K-40 and Ca-40, to understand better the case.
2) The mass of the K-40 that decayed into Ca-40 is 9 times (ratio 9:1) the amount that decayed into Ar-40 =>
mass of K-40 that decayed into Ca-40 = 9 * 0.377 = 3.393 mg
3) Total amount of K-40 that decayed = amount that decayed into Ar-40 + amount that decayed into Ca-40 = 0.377mg + 3.393mg = 3.77 mg
4) Original amount of K-40 = amount of K-40 that decayed + amount of K-40 present in the rock = 3.77mg + 0.81 mg = 4.58 mg
5) amount of K-40 that decayed into Ar-40 as percent
% = [3.77 mg / 4.58mg] * 100 = 82.31 %.
