Answer:
They are eukaryotic, which means they have a nucleus. Most have mitochondria
Its a 50% chance that approx 1/2 of the pennies will land on tails. The next toss will result the same. and so on and so on. showing how a reaction would slowly eliminate 1/2 of the remaining lives per reaction, until nothing is left. I think it is a good stimulation.
There will be 7.5 g of Be-11 remaining after 28 s.
If 14 s = 1 half-life, 28 s = 2 half-lives.
After the first half-life, ½ of the Be-11 (15 g) will disappear, and 15 g will remain.
After the second half-life, ½ of the 15 g (7.5 g) will disappear, and 7.5 g will remain.
In symbols,
<em>N</em> = <em>N</em>₀(½)^<em>n</em>
where
<em>n</em> = the number of half-lives
<em>N</em>₀ = the original amount
<em>N</em> = the amount remaining after <em>n</em> half-lives
