The half-life of Th-232 is 1.405 × 10¹⁰ years
Time elapsed = 2.8 x 10⁹ years
Equation of radioactive decay:
A = A₀ = (1/2)^ t/t₁/₂
where A₀ is the initial amount, A is the amount after time t, t₁/₂ is the half file
The fraction of thorium-232 that remains in the rock after 2.8 billions years is,
A/A₀ = (1/2) ^ (2.8 x 10⁹/ 1.405 × 10¹⁰) = 0.871
Therefore, the percentage of thorium-232 in the rock that was dated at 2.8 billions year = 87.1%
Answer: 800 mL of methyl alcohol should be added to 200 ml of water to make this solution.
Explanation:
Volume of the methyl alcohol = x
Volume of water = y = 200 mL
Volume of the solution ,V = x + y
Volume percentage of solution = 80%
x = 800 mL
800 mL of methyl alcohol should be added to 200 ml of water to make this solution.
Answer:
C. Trp D. Phe E. Tyr
Explanation:
The concentration of a protein has a direct relation with absorbance of the protein in a UV spectrophotometer. The formula which relates concentration with absorbance is described as under:
A = ∈ x c x l
where, A = Absorbance
∈ = Molar extinction co-efficient
c = Concentration of absorbing species i.e. protein
l = Path length of light
Tryptophan (Trp), phenylalanine (Phe ) and tyrosine (Tyr) are three aromatic amino acids which are used to measure protein concentration by UV. It is mainly because of tryptophan (Trp), protein absorbs at 280 nm which gives us an idea of protein concentration during UV spectroscopy.
The table depicting the wavelength at which these amino acids absorb and their respective molar extinction coefficient is as under:
Amino acid Wavelength Molar extinction co-efficient (∈)
Tryptophan 282 nm 5690
Tyrosine 274 nm 1280
Phenylalanine 257 nm 570
In view of table above, we can easily see that Molar extinction co-efficient (∈) of Tryptophan is highest amongst all these 3 amino acids that is why it dominates while measuring concentration.
Answer:
less than 5 centimeters because it is a nonvascular plant
Explanation:
Mosses are a group of plants under the division Bryophyta. They are said to be the most primitive plant life in existence as they lack true roots, stems and leaves. They also lack vascular system, hence, they are regarded as non-vascular plants. They usually grow in very small sizes (about 0.2 - 10cm).
According to this question, Penny bought a club moss plant for her water garden and needs to know how tall the plant will grow so she know how much space it will need. Since it is a miss plant that lacks vascular tissues i.e. nonvascular, it will likely grow less than 5 centimeters in height.
Answer:
Explanation:
The symbol for TIN is Sn.
When Sn loses 2 electrons, it gets a double positive charge ( +2 ) and becomes 
.
It becomes a cation.
The name of Ion is Tin ( II ) Ion.
