Half-life<span> is the time required for a quantity to reduce to half its initial value. </span><span>If four half-lives have elapsed for calcium-45, then it would be 4x162.7 = 650.8 days have passed. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day. Feel free to ask more questions.</span>

Answer:

1.78 years

Explanation:

First half life is the time at which the concentration of the reactant reduced to half.

Second half reaction is the time at which the remaining concentration reduced to half or the initial concentration reduced to 1/4.

Third half life is the time at which the remaining concentration reduced to half or the initial concentration reduced to 1/8.

Fourth half life is the time at which the remaining concentration reduced to half or the initial concentration reduced to 1/16.

There are four half lives. So, time has passed = 4*162.7 days = 650.8 days = 1.78 years

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

36

Explanation:

Since the sample was undiluted the number of colonies is the number that grew on the nutrient agar which is 36 colonies. If it was diluted for example let say 0.1 ml from a dilution in which 1 ml of the sample was added to 9 ml of water, and it grew  colonies then  0.1 ml  yielded  6 colonies, 1 ml of the diluted sample will yield 60 colonies and 10 ml will have 600 colonies and therefore the 1 ml undiluted sample will have 600 colonies.

Illusion [34]

Answer:

Part A

K = (K₂)²

K = (K₃)⁻²

Part B

K = √(Ka/Kb)

Explanation:

Part A

The parent reaction is

2Al(s) + 3Br₂(l) ⇌ 2AlBr₃(s)

The equilibrium constant is given as

K = [AlBr₃]²/[Al]²[Br₂]³

2) Al(s) + (3/2) Br₂(l) ⇌ AlBr₃(s)

K₂ = [AlBr₃]/[Al][Br₂]¹•⁵

It is evident that

K = (K₂)²

3) AlBr₃(s) ⇌ Al(s) + 3/2 Br₂(l)

K₃ = [Al][Br₂]¹•⁵/[AlBr₃]

K = (K₃)⁻²

Part B

Parent reaction

S(s) + O₂(g) ⇌ SO₂(g)

K = [SO₂]/[S][O₂]

a) 2S(s) + 3O₂(g) ⇌ 2SO₃(g)

Ka = [SO₃]²/[S]²[O₂]³

[SO₃]² = Ka × [S]²[O₂]³

b) 2SO₂(g) + O₂(g) ⇌ 2 SO₃(g)

Kb = [SO₃]²/[SO₂]²[O₂]

[SO₃]² = Kb × [SO₂]²[O₂]

[SO₃]² = [SO₃]²

Hence,

Ka × [S]²[O₂]³ = Kb × [SO₂]²[O₂]

(Ka/Kb) = [SO₂]²[O₂]/[S]²[O₂]³

(Ka/Kb) = [SO₂]²/[S]²[O₂]²

(Ka/Kb) = {[SO₂]/[S][O₂]}²

Recall

K = [SO₂]/[S][O₂]

Hence,

(Ka/Kb) = K²

K = √(Ka/Kb)

Hope this Helps!!!

If a pharmacist dissolves 1.2 grams of a medicinal agent in 60 ml of a cough syrup having a specific gravity of 1.20, what is th
guapka [62]

Mass of medicinal agent taken = 1.2 g

the volume is 60 mL

Specific gravity = 1.20

So the mass of solution = specific gravity X volume = 1.20 * 60 = 72g

Now if we have increased the volume by 0.2 so the new volume = 60.2

New mass = 72 + 1.2 = 73.2  

Specific gravity = mass /  volume = 73.2 / 60.2 = 1.22 g/mL
