How does a graph show a saturated solution and a unsaturated solution

A graph can illustrate what solution is saturated and unsaturated. If the point is on the line, then the solution is saturated, while if is below the line, the solution is unsaturated.

What is radioactive dating based on

The half-life of the radioactive material.

What describes a radioisotope

An isotope of an element that is radioactive

Which type of energy releases greenhouse gases when used to make electricity

Coal

What characteristic should an isotope used for dating have

It should have a half life that is close to the age of the object being dated

What happens to an atom that experiences radioactive decay

It loses mass.

What is the biggest problem with radioactive waste

It has a very long half-life. Disposal of radioactive waste is the biggest problem. Proper disposal is essential to ensure protection of the health and safety of the public and quality of the environment including air, soil, and water supplies.

Why can light be treated like a particle

Light comes in chunks of energy called photons.

What property should a radioisotope used for dating have

it's half-life should be similar to the age of the fossil. APEX

What is the half-life of a radioisotope if a 100 g sample becomes 50 g after 20 years

20 years

How is the mass defect determined

The mass of a nucleus is subtracted from the sum of the masses of its individual components.

What is the half-life of a radioisotope if a 40 g sample becomes 10 g after 20 minutes

10 minutes. APEX ^-^

Which is a renewable energy source

Hydroelectric

How is the H fusion used to calculate the mass of solid that 1kJ of energy will melt

1kj x 1/H fusion x g/mol solid

How much energy is released is a sample loses 0.05 kg mass through radioactive decay

4.5 × 1015 J

What is an example of bronsted Lowry base

NH3

which is a fossil fuel

natural gas

How would a change in pressure affect a gaseous system in equilibrium, according to Le Chatelier's principle

The answer is "The equilibrium would shift to reduce the pressure change" on Apex
