From the calculations, the half life of the material is 6.5 days.
<h3>What is radioactivity?</h3>
The term radioactivity has to do with the spontaneous disintegration of a specie.
Uisng the formula;
N=Noe^-kt
N= amount at time t = 0.135 Ci or 4.995 ×10^9 Bq
No = amount initially present = 1.75 x 10^12 Bq
k = rate constant = ?
t = time taken = 55 days
Hence;
4.995 ×10^9 = 1.75 x 10^12e^-55k
4.995 ×10^9/1.75 x 10^12 = e^-55k
2.85 * 10^-3 = e^-55k
ln2.85 * 10^-3 = -55k
k = ln2.85 * 10^-3/-55
k = 0.1066 day-1
Half life = 0.693/ 0.1066 day-1
= 6.5 days

Pretty sure it's the Precambrian.
Answer:
3.49 g
Explanation:
The mass is the product of volume and density:
(8.96 g/cm³)(0.39 cm³) ≈ 3.49 g
The mass of a pure-copper penny would be 3.49 g.
<u>Answer:</u> Carbon-carbon double bond is stronger and shorter than the single bond.
<u>Explanation:</u>
It is given that carbon-carbon double bond has greater energy than the carbon-carbon single bond.
Bond energy is directly proportional to the bond strength, which means that the double bond will have greater strength than single bond and triple bond has the greatest strength of all the bonds.
Bond energy is inversely proportional to the bond length of the carbon-carbon bond. This means that more is the bond energy, shorter will be the bond and vice-versa.
Hence, carbon-carbon double bond is stronger and shorter than the single bond.
