The total amount of radioactive substance will never reach zero because it decays in half-lives. For C-14 is 5730 years, this means that after 5730 years one half of the original material will have decayed. After another 5730 years the remaining radioactive material (1/2 the original) will have decayed by 1/2 once again.
-An infinite crowd of mathematicians enters a bar. The first one orders a pint, the second one a half pint, the third one a quarter pint...
"I understand", says the bartender - and pours two pints.
What else can I help you with?
What is the property that is a quality of a substance that never changes and can be used to indentify the substance?
A quality of a substance that never changes is one of the reasons why density is a characteristic property
What never gets any wetter no matter how much it rains but im always outside all the same?
A shadow never gets wetter no matter how much it rains, as it is merely the absence of light and not a physical substance. Despite the rain, shadows are always present when you are outside during the day.
Why is density is a useful physical property for identifying substances?
Density is useful for identifying an unknown material because it is a physical constant. A physical constant is a unique characteristic of the material in question. This constant never change or vary with the shape or amount of the material/substance.
Explain why a radioactive rock will never become completely stable?
A radioactive rock will never become completely stable because it contains isotopes that undergo radioactive decay, transforming into different elements over time. This process continues until a stable isotope is reached, but due to the presence of multiple isotopes with varying half-lives, decay can occur over extremely long timescales. Additionally, new radioactive isotopes can be produced through decay chains, perpetuating the cycle. As a result, the rock will always possess some level of radioactivity, albeit diminishing over time.
When does radioactive decay stop?
Radioactive decay does not entirely stop. It continues until all the unstable radioactive isotopes have decayed into stable isotopes. The rate of decay may decrease over time, but it never completely stops.
Where would a person have the least amount of mass at sea level or the moon?
Neither. Mass, is your total amount of substance, mass never changes.
Were can you find a radioactive spider?
There are no radioactive spiders. This is something from a movie, and has never happened. There is no way to find images of radioactive spiders.
What did Marie Curie never do?
Bake radioactive ckes.
Which minerals are present in granite but are never present in gabbro?
Never say never, but it's mica.
What is meant by a characteristic property of a substance?
A characteristic property of a substance is a unique and specific attribute that is inherent to that substance and helps to identify and distinguish it from others. These properties remain constant regardless of the amount or form of the substance and can be used to determine its identity.
What does hesse mean when he says Siddhartha was never present?
kamala was never present
Does temperature have an effect on the amount of thermal energy in a substance?
Yes, temperature directly impacts the amount of thermal energy in a substance. As temperature increases, the kinetic energy of the particles in the substance increases, leading to a higher amount of thermal energy. Conversely, a decrease in temperature results in a lower amount of thermal energy.
How do you use radioactive element in a sentence?
A radioactive element is one that discharges radiation. Uranium is a radioactive element. A radioactive element is very dangerous if you don't have protective clothing. You should never go near a radioactive element.
What is the property that is a quality of a substance that never changes and can be used to indentify the substance?
A quality of a substance that never changes is one of the reasons why density is a characteristic property
What is the tense of 'never seen'?
The tense of 'never seen' is present perfect. It indicates that an action was never experienced or witnessed up to the present moment.
What verb tense is it never snows in Florida?
Present tense.
Do the use of radioactive isotopes determine the exact age of a rock or the absolute age?
All rocks contain some radioactive heavy nuclei, as time passes the constantly 'break' into smaller nuclei by a process called nuclear fission. The older the rock gets, the lower the concentration of radioactive goes (they never become zero as their rate of decrement alse decreses as the total substance decreases). So you cannot tell if the substance is exactly 1248.5 years old for an instance but but you do have enough information to say it is 1000-1500 years old. For more detailed knowledge you may study 'Kinetics of Chemical Reactions' and 'Nucler Physics' in row.
