25000 molecules of U-238 element will be left after 4.5 billion years.

<h2>What is half life of radioactive element?</h2>

<h3>Half life of radioactive element</h3>

Half-life of radioactive elements refers to the time interval needed for one-half of the atomic nuclei of a radioactive sample to decay. The change occurs in the radioactive element into other nuclear species by emitting particles and energy.

Radioactive decay reduces the number of radioactive nuclei up to half of its original value or molecules so we can conclude that 25000 molecules of U-238 element will be left after 4.5 billion years.

the pressure in a car tire is 198 kpa at 27°C. After a long drive the pressure is 225 kpa. what is the temperature of the air in
Grace [21]

Answer:

340.9°k ~ 67.8°C

Explanation:

This is an example of Gay-Lussac's law, which states that the pressure of a given amount of gas held at constant volume is directly proportional to the Kelvin temperature. This means that if the volume increases, so does the temperature, and vice versa.

The equation for this gas law is:

P1/T1 = P2/T2

Known

P1 = 198 kPa

T1 = 27°C + 273.15 = 300°K ← Temp. must be in Kelvins

P2 = 225 kPa

T2 = ?

Solution

Rearrange the equation to isolate T2

Input the known values and solve.

T2 = T1P2/P1

Where:

T2 = 300°K × 225kPa/198kPa = 340.91°K

T2 in °C = 340.91°K − 273.15 = 67.8°C

#1: Which of the following statements is true?
liberstina [14]
<span>Endothermic reactions take in heat from the environment in order to react while exothermic reactions release heat during the reaction. For this, D must be true as the products have less energy because they have released heat during the reaction. A and C are incorrect because they products and reactants are equal and B is wrong because the energy of the products would be more as the reaction took in heat.</span>

How do ionic bonds form??
mihalych1998 [28]
It is formed when a metal element is chemically combined to a nonmetal. The metal element will form a positive ion and the nonmetal will form a negative ion. They will then combined to form a very strong bond with very strong electrostatic forces between the particles.
