This for health and hazard purposes. The conventional thermometers contain mercury which is very dangerous to health. It is toxic which could cause poisoning, respiratory damage and kidney problems. Because of this, it is already illegal to use them for safety purposes. Temperature probes are much safer because they only use thermocouples.
Answer:
10.8 days (3 sig.figs.)
Explanation:
All radioactive decay is 1st order decay defined by the expression A = A₀e^-kt
which is solved for time of decay (t) => t = ln(A/A₀) / -k
A = final weight = 1.0 gram
A₀ = initial weight = 16.0 grams
k = rate constant = 0.693/t(1/2) = 0.693/2.69 days = 0.258 days⁻¹
t = ln(1/16) / -0.258da⁻¹ = (-2.77/-0.258) days = 10.74646792 days (calculator)
≅ 10 days (1 sig. fig. based on given 1 gram mass)

Answer:
In conclusion, the net ionic equation for the reaction between calcium carbonate and hydrochloric acid is CaCO3 solid plus two H+ aqueous react to form Ca2+ aqueous plus CO2 gas plus H2O liquid.
Answer:
Infectious diseases are commonly transmitted through direct person-to-person contact.
The main four pathogens are virus, bacteria, protists and fungi.
Bacteria, fungi and protists can reproduce wherever the conditions are warm, with plenty of moisture, nutrients, and space. Viruses can only reproduce by invading living cells.
