Please helpRadiocontrast dyes are considered safe because the isotopes have short half-lives and the isotopes coat the gastrointestinal tract and are not absorbed by normal tissue. If a patient ingests 10.0 mg of iodine, how long until the iodine-134 is 99% out of the patient's system if the half-life of iodine-134 is 52.6 minutes?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: In 52.6 mins the 10 mg of iodine will be divided by its half-life which is 2 it will become 5 mg  (in 52.6 minutes ) and same procedure will be followed until it reach 99% out of the patient's system.

The answer is 368 minutes will it takes the iodine to be absorbed in one's system.

One balloon was only partly filled when put on the plane. During the flight, the balloon volumeincreased from 7 L at 1.0 atm to 9 L. What was the cabin pressure on the airplane during the flight?
(Assume the balloon stretched very easily and the temperature was constant.)

Answers

Answer:

P₂ = 0.8 atm

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial pressure = 1 atm

Initial volume = 7 L

Final volume = 9 L

Final pressure = ?

Solution:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

P₁ = Initial pressure

V₁ = Initial volume

P₂ = Final pressure

V₂ = Final volume

Now we will put the vales in formula.

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

P₂ = P₁V₁ /V₂

P₂ = 1 atm × 7 L / 9 L

P₂ = 7 atm. L / 9 L

P₂ = 0.8 atm

Can someone explain #3

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Hey,

so here the student is saying that the given mass is of one atom. But when we usually talk about amu it is the unified atomic mass so mass of all the atoms present.

So that's why he is wrong.

Also the definitions states,

The atomic mass of an element is the average mass of the atoms of an element measured in atomic mass unit (amu, also known as daltons, D). The atomic mass is a weighted average of all of the isotopes of that element, in which the mass of each isotope is multiplied by the abundance of that particular isotope.

Answer:

See below.

Explanation:

121.76 amu is the Relative Atomic Mass of Antimony (the average mass of the different isotopes). . The element exists as a mixture of isotopes ,  the main one being  SB121 which has a mass of 121.

the atomic number of barium is 56 what do you know about the subatomic particles in an atom of this element

Answers

Answer is 56 protons and 56 electrons.

Explanation;

Atomic number is equal to number of protons. Hence, when the atomic number is 56, it means that atom has 56 protons.

When the element is in neutral state,number of protons = number of electrons. Hence, we can say that barium atom has 56 electrons.

But same element can have different number of neutrons. Those are called isotopes. Hence, we cannot say that there are 56 neutrons in barium atom without having its mass number. (Mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons)

If this atom is a neutral atom, the subatomic particles would be 56 protons, 56 neutrons, and 56 electrons.
