Three radioisotopes are being discussed in a chemistry class. technetium-99m has a half-life of 6 hours. rubidium-87 has a half-life of 50 billion years. which describes who would most likely use each isotope? a geologist would use technetium-99m because short-life indicates an older organism, and a doctor would use rubidium-87 because it allows for a more-accurate measurement of disease. a doctor would use technetium-99m because a short half-life indicates a quick measurement, and a geologist would use rubidium-87 because a longer half-life means that there is a longer time to measure old rock. a doctor would use technetium-99m because a short half-life indicates a quick measurement, and an archeologist would use rubidium-87 because anything containing carbon also contains rubidium. a geologist would use technetium-99m because a short half-life indicates an older organism, and an archeologist would use rubidium-87 because anything containing carbon also contains rubidium.

Achemical reaction (also known as a chemical change) produces substances that are chemically different from the starting materials. an example of a chemical reaction is the formation of water from hydrogen and oxygen gas. in a physical change, a substance changes its physical appearance but not its chemical identity. an example of physical change is the formation of liquid water from solid water, a familiar process called melting. physically, liquid water looks very different from solid water (ice) but the chemical identity, water, is the same for both. which of following changes that affect the composition of our atmosphere involve physical changes and which involve chemical reactions? oxygen gas changes to ozone during thunderstorms carbon dioxide is produced by the combustion of gasoline in an automobile engine. when coal, oil, and natural gas are decomposed in landsills they produce methane gas. freezing rain develops when a warm air mass overrides a cold air mass. fog forms from water vapor when the temperature drops below the dew point
