As part of her nuclear stress test, Simone starts to walk on the treadmill. When she reaches the maximum level, Paul injects a r

adioactive dye with201Tl with an activity of 72 MBq . The radiation emitted from areas of her heart is detected by a scanner and produces images of her heart muscle. After Simone rests for 3 h, Paul injects more dye with 201Tl and she is placed under the scanner again. A second set of images of her heart muscle at rest is taken. When Simone's doctor reviews her scans, he assures her that she had normal blood flow to her heart muscle, both at rest and under stress.
Part A
If the half-life of 201Tl is 3.0 days, what is its activity, in megabecquerels after 3.0 days?
Express the activity to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

Part B
What is its activity in megabecquerels after 6.0 days?
Express the activity to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

Answer:

Part A: 36 MBq; Part B: 18 MBq

Explanation:

The half-life is the time it takes for half the substance to disappear.

The activity decreases by half every half-life

A =Ao(½)^n, where n is the number of half-lives.

Part A

3.0 da = 1 half-life

A =  Ao(½) = ½ × 72 MBq = 36 MBq

Part B

6.0 da = 2 half-lives

A = Ao(½)^2 = ¼ × 72 MBq = 18 MBq

If irons temperature goes from 50c to 75c in a 20g sample, how many joules of heat were used?
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

Option D. 230 J

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the temperature change of the iron. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial temperature (T₁) = 50 °C

Final temperature (T₂) = 75 °C

Change in temperature (ΔT) =?

ΔT = T₂ – T₁

ΔT = 75 – 50

ΔT = 25 °C

Thus, the temperature change of the iron is 25 °C.

Finally, we shall determine the amount of heat energy used. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (M) = 20 g

Change in temperature (ΔT) = 25 °C

Specific heat capacity (C) = 0.46 J/gºC

Heat (Q) =?

Q = MCΔT

Q = 20 × 0.46 × 25

Q = 230 J

Thus, the amount of heat used was 230 J

Hydrochloric acid reacts with calcium to form hydrogen and calcium chloride. if 100 grams of hydrochloric acid reacts with 100 g
natita [175]
The balanced chemical reaction is:

2HCl + Ca = CaCl2 + H2

We are given the amount of the reactants to be used for the reaction. These values will be the starting point of our calculations.

100 g HCl ( 1 mol HCl / 36.46 g HCl ) = 2.74 mol HCl

100 g Ca ( 1 mol Ca / 40.08 g ) = 2.08 mol Ca

From the reaction, the mole ratio of the reactants is 2:1 where every 2 moles of hydrochloric acid, 1 mole of calcium is required. Therefore, the limiting reactant for this case is calcium.
