The Environmental Protection Agency and health officials nationwide are concerned about the levels of radon gas in homes. The half-life of the radon-222 isotope is 3.8 days. If a sample of gas taken from a basement contains 2.1 µg of radon-222, how much radon will remain in the sample after 4.94 days? Answer in units of µg.

The amount left after 4.94 days is

Explanation:

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

where,

k = rate constant

t = age of sample

a = let initial amount of the reactant

a - x = amount left after decay process  

a) for completion of half life:

Half life is the amount of time taken by a radioactive material to decay to half of its original value.

b) to calculate amount left after 4.94 days

The amount left after 4.94 days is

explanation:

venn diagram is pictorial representation with of circles showing the relation between two finite sets or things. the intersection part of two circles conveys the relation present in between those sets or things.

here in the venn diagram of sand and salt two circles represent sand and salt. but the area falling under the intersection of these circle represents the mixture of sand and salt.

so, in a venn diagram the mixture will be placed in a middle that is in between the intersection of two circles.
