a sample is brought to the laboratory and the chemist determines the percentage of the daughter isotope is 87.5%. if the half-life of the isotope is 150 million years, how old is the sample?
Uranium 235 is 0.7 percent of natural uranium and is fissile
It will take between 450 and 525 years.
Yes U235 is the fissionable isotope of Uranium. Natural Uranium contains only about 0.7 percent U235, which is enough to produce fission only with a good moderator such as graphite or heavy water. In light water reactors the Uranium has to be enriched to about 4 percent U 235.
45% percent of Canada's Forests are forested. That's all.
Oxygen levels stay above 15 percent starting 200 million years ago
That is done to calculate the weighted average.
Calculation of the atomic weight of an element having many isotopes:ia - atomic mass of the isotope a x percent concentration of the isotope in the elementib - atomic mass of the isotope b x percent concentration of the isotope in the elementic - atomic mass of the isotope c x percent concentration of the isotope in the element...........................................................................................................................iz - mass of the isotope z x percent concentration of the isotope in the elementMake the sum: I = ia + ib + ic + ..... izThe atomic weight of the element is: I/100 (the term weight is recommended by IUPAC in this case).
22 million = 2,200 million percent
5%
19.9
It is 460,000,000% (460 million percent).
7.5 percent of 280 million is 21 million.
28 million percent of 2% is 5,600
10 percent of 10 million is 1 million.
53 percent of 9 million is 4.77 million.

1.3 million = 1,300,000 = 130,000,000% (130 million percent)
