Hydrogen 3 has a half life of 12.32 years a sample of h-3 weighing 3.02 grams is left for 15.0 years what will the final weight of h-3 sample be?

The final mass of sample is 1.3 g.

Explanation:

Given data:

Half life of H-3 = 12.32 years

Amount left for 15.0 years = 3.02 g

Final amount = ?

Solution:

First all we will calculate the decay constant.

t₁/₂ = ln² /k

t₁/₂ =12.32 years

12.32 y =  ln² /k

k = ln²/12.32 y

k = 0.05626 y⁻¹

Now we will find the original amount:

ln (A°/A) = Kt

ln (3.02 g/ A) = 0.05626 y⁻¹ × 15.0 y

ln (3.02 g/ A) = 0.8439

3.02 g/ A = e⁰°⁸⁴³⁹

3.02 g/ A = 2.33

A = 3.02 g/ 2.33

A = 1.3 g

The final mass of sample is 1.3 g.

elements make up everything, and they combine to make compounds.

the answer is c
