The barium isotope 133ba has a half-life of 10.5 years. a sample begins with 1.1×1010 133ba atoms. how many are left after (a) 5
Sladkaya [172]
<span>a) 7.9x10^9 b) 1.5x10^9 c) 3.9x10^4 To determine what percentage of an isotope remains after a given length of time, you can use the formula p = 2^(-x) where p = percentage remaining x = number of half lives expired. The number of half lives expired is simply x = t/h where x = number of half lives expired t = time spent h = length of half life. So the overall formula becomes p = 2^(-t/h) And since we're starting with 1.1x10^10 atoms, we can simply multiply that by the percentage. So, the answers rounding to 2 significant figures are: a) 1.1x10^10 * 2^(-5/10.5) = 1.1x10^10 * 0.718873349 = 7.9x10^9 b) 1.1x10^10 * 2^(-30/10.5) = 1.1x10^10 * 0.138011189 = 1.5x10^9 c) 1.1x10^10 * 2^(-190/10.5) = 1.1x10^10 * 3.57101x10^-6 = 3.9x10^4</span>

2. Flurine has 9 protons and lithium has 3 protons. you know that the electron is attracted with the centre of the atom, that's why more proton, more 'energy' that attract to the centre and that's why it make the shape of the atom is smaller

Which term is de ned as the region in an atom where an electron is most likely to be located?
charle [14.2K]
Orbital
All atoms have the same number of electrons as protons. Negative electrons are attracted to the positive nucleus. This force of attraction keeps electrons constantly moving around the nucleus. The region where an electron is most likely to be found is called an orbital.
