a sample that has a half life of 45 years take ____ for the count rate to drop from 600 cpm to 150 cpm

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

90yrs

Explanation:

Half life is the time taken for half of an original radioactive material to decay by half.

For the sample;

    Half - life = 45yrs

  Original amount  = 600cpm

                 0yrs                                                600cpm

                                   First half life

                 45yrs                                              300cpm

                                  Second half life

                 90yrs                                               150cpm

Kernels of corn are heated and become popcorn. Why is this a chemical change?

Answers

Answer:

When popcorn is popped, liquid inside the kernel is changed to steam. Pressure from the steam builds up inside the kernel. When the pressure reached a critical stage the kernel pops turning itself inside out. This is a physical change.

Explanation:

Because it’s not a physical change

Temperature and kinetic energy have a relationship.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf Temperature=Average \ kinetic \ energy}}[/tex]

Explanation:

Temperature is also known as the average kinetic energy in a substance.

If there is an absence of heat in a substance, the particles move slower and the kinetic energy decreases. The temperature will be lower, because there is less kinetic energy.

If heat is present or applied, the particles move more, so kinetic energy increases. The temperature will be higher, since there is more kinetic energy.

So, the relationship is: temperature is the measure of average kinetic energy.

Calculate the mass of fe(no3)3 that is measured to prepare 500.0 mL of a 0.175mol/L solution.​

Answers

Answer:

21.3g

Explanation:

The formula of the compound is;

        Fe(NO₃)₃

Given:

volume  = 500mL  = 0.5L

concentration  = 0.175mol/L

Unknown:

Mass of  Fe(NO₃)₃ measured = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, find the number of moles first;

      Number of moles of  Fe(NO₃)₃ = concentration x volume

 So;

      Number of moles  = 0.175 x 0.5   = 0.088mol

Now to find the mass;

  Mass  = number of moles x molar mass

      Molar mass of  Fe(NO₃)₃ = 55.8 + 3[14 + 3(16)]

       Molar mass of  Fe(NO₃)₃ = 55.8 + 3(62) = 241.8g/mol

  Mass = 0.088mol x 241.8g/mol  = 21.3g

Which orbital can be modeled by a "peanut" shape?

Answers

Answer:

d - orbital

Explanation:

The d-orbital can modelled by a peanut shape.

A peanut shape closely resembles the shape of a double dumb-bell shape. The double dumb-bell shape is like that of a peanut.

The s-orbital has a spherical shape. p - orbital is dumb-bell shapedd - orbital is a double dumbellf - orbital has a complex shape.

Therefore, since a peanut is like a double dumb-bell, it clearly models the d-orbital.

20 PTS!!! Jack said that unprocessed oil is a mixture of many organic compounds. Jane said that unprocessed oil needs to be processed so that individual compound can be isolated. Who made the correct statement and why?

1. Jack is correct, unprocessed oil is a mixture of many organic compounds. Jane is not correct, they do not need to be processed to be used.
2. Jack is incorrect, unprocessed oil is not a mixture of many organic compounds. Jane is correct, unprocessed oil needs to be processed to be used.
3. Both Jack and Jane are correct. Unprocessed oil, petroleum, is a mixture of organic compounds that need to be isolated or separated to be used.
4. Neither Jack nor Jane are correct. Unprocessed oil, petroleum, is not a mixture of organic compounds and it does not need to be isolated or separated to be used.
