How many milligrams remain of a 15.0 mg sample of radium-226 after 6396 years? The half life of radium-226 is 1599 years.

1 answer:

3 0

There are 4 half lives of radium-226 in 6396 years. 15.0 divided by half 4 times (15.0/2= 7.5, 7.5/2 = 3.75, 3.75/2 = 1.875) equals 1.875 mg of radium-226.

Answer:

Average atomic mass = 10.812 amu

Explanation:

The formula for the calculation of the average atomic mass is:

$Average\ atomic\ mass=(\frac {\%\ of\ the\ first\ isotope}{100}\times {Mass\ of\ the\ first\ isotope})+(\frac {\%\ of\ the\ second\ isotope}{100}\times {Mass\ of\ the\ second\ isotope})$
