a 60.0-g sample of fermium-253 was placed in a sealed vessel 9.0 days ago. only 7.5 g of this isotope is now left. what is the
half-life of fermium 253?
3.0 days
4.5 days
17.5 days
20.0 days

Half life = 3 days

Explanation:

Given data:

Original amount = 60 g

Amount left after 9 days = 7.5 g

Half life of fermium-253 = ?

Solution:

At time 0 = 60 g

At 1st half life = 60 g/2 = 30 g

At 2nd half life = 30 g /2 = 15 g

At 3rd half life = 15 g/2 = 7.5 g

Half life = T elapsed / number of half lives

Half life = 9 days / 3

Half life = 3 days

plants need sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to make food. plants use the raw materials of water, nutrients they absorb from soil, and carbon dioxide to make sugars the plant can use. energy from the sun and chlorophyll are also needed.

warm front forms when a moist, warm air mass slides up and over a cold air mass. as the warm air mass rises, it condenses into a broad area of clouds. a warm front brings gentle rain or light snow, followed by warmer, milder weather.
