Tc-99 is also a radioactive element. It's half-life is 2,11,000 years. Upon radioactive decay, it emits beta particles and gets converted into stable compound Ruthenium-99
This process of radioactive decay is shown below.
99 43Tc → 99 44Ru + 0 -1e

Half-life of a radioactive substance is the time required to reduce the amount of substance to half of its initial amount.
In present case, half-life is material is given as 1000 years and initial amount of material is given as 400 kg
Answer 1) Since, half-life of radio-active substance is 1000 years, therefore after 1st half life, amount of the material will be left to half the initial amount. Hence, amount of substance left after 1000 years = 400/2 = 200 kg.
Answer 2) For 2000 years, radioactive material has crossed 2 times the half life. Therefore , amount of the material will be left to 1/4 the initial amount. Hence, amount of substance left after 2000 years = 400/4 = 100 kg.
Answer 3) For 4000 years, radioactive material has crossed 4 times the half life. Therefore , amount of the material will be left to 1/16 the initial amount. Hence, amount of substance left after 4000 years = 400/16 = 25 kg.

Answer:
50.8 g
Explanation:
Equation of reaction.

From the given information, the number of moles of methane = mass/ molar mass
= 15.4 g / 16.04 g/mol
= 0.960 mol
number of moles of oxygen gas = 90.3 g / 32 g/ mol
= 2.82 mol
Since 1 mol of methane requires 2 moles of oxygen
Then 0.960 mol of methane will require = 0.960 mol × 2 = 1.92 mol of oxygen gas
Thus, methane serves as a limiting reagent.
2.82 mol oxygen gas will result in 2.82 moles of water
So, the theoretical yield of water = moles × molar mass
= 2.82 mol × 18.01528 g/mol
= 50.8 g
