Radioactive gold-198 is used in the diagnosis of liver problems. the half-life of this isotope is 2.7 days. if you begin with a sample of 8.1 mg of the isotope, how much of this sample remains after 2.6 days?

See explanation below

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we need to use the expression of half life decay of concentration (or mass) which is the following:

m = m₀e^-kt  (1)

In this case, k will be the constant rate of this element. This is calculated using the following expression:

k = ln2/t₁/₂  (2)

Let's calculate the value of k first:

k = ln2/2.7 = 0.2567 d⁻¹

Now, we can use the expression (1) to calculate the remaining mass:

m = 8.1 * e^(-0.2567 * 2.6)

m = 8.1 * e^(-0.6674)

m = 8.1 * 0.51303

m = 4.16 mg remaining

b.final

answer: any goods being imported from another country may be subject to issued by the federal government are tariffs

explanation:  

tariffs are a tax on anything that are imported from abroad. government use them to protect and boost their local industries and the thought is that they encourage consumers to buy local instead of importing and they will hope will protect jobs and economy in the country that implements them
