Use the following half-life graph to answer the following question:
a graph titled half-life graph of a radioactive isotope is shown with mass remaining on the y axis from 0 to 60 grams and time on the x axis from o to 6 minutes. a curve connects the points 0, 50 and 1, 25 and 2, 12.5 and 3, 6.25 and 4, 3.125 and 5, 1.5625
how many half-lives occur during 6.0 minutes?
1
3
6
12

6

Explanation:

This is a type of radioactive decay and all the radioactive process follow first order kinetics.

Half life is the time taken for an radioactive substance to decompose to half of its original value.

Now, to calculate the number of half lives, we use the formula:

where,

a = amount of reactant left after 6 minutes =

= Initial amount of the reactant = 50

n = number of half lives  = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

Taking log on both sides, we get

Thus 6 half lives occur during 6 minutes.

false

explanation:

boats, things on boats luggage are way more heavy then water.

a lot of it means it can be "burned" for energy and sold at one price. if it is scarce, the price will go up
