Interpretation:
Transuranium elements that have half-life more than 1 year have to be determined using table 11-2 as the information source.
Concept Introduction:
Radioactive nuclides undergo disintegration by emission of radiation. All the radioactive nuclide do not undergo the decay at a same rate. Some decay rapidly and others decay very slowly. The nuclear stability can be quantitatively expressed by using the half-life.
Radioactive decay happens naturally. This can also be done artificially in the laboratory by means of bombardment reaction. Bombardment reaction produces synthetic nuclides. These synthetic radionuclides are known as transuranium elements. This is because they occur after uranium. The

IR Spectrograph of Acetaminophenarrow_forwardA flat (not spherical) tissue engineered skin (thickness 3.9 mm) is attached to the bottom of a dish and cultured with cell media atop it (which has an oxygen concentration of 0.15 mol/m3). The diffusivity of oxygen in the skin is 3.2 E-9 m?/s, and according to experiments that you've performed, you want to make sure that the concentration of oxygen in the device doesn't fall below 0.06 mol/m3. (Below that concentration harms the cells.) The rate of oxygen consumption is -5 E-17 mol/[cell•s]. What is the maximum cellularity (in cells/mL, three significant digits) that this tissue engineered skin can support?arrow_forwardA flat (not spherical) tissue engineered skin (thickness 2.5 mm) is attached to the bottom of a dish and cultured with cell media atop it (which has an oxygen concentration of 0.15 mol/m3).

- The Ksp values of silver chromate Ag2CrO4 and silver iodate Ag(IO3) are given below. Ag2CrO4 Ag(IO3) Ksp 1.12 x 10-12 3.17 x 10-8 Based on these Ksp values, which of the following is true? Choose one option only. Options: a. In the solution consisting of 1.00 x10-4 M Ag+ and 5.00 x10-5 M CrO42-, Ag2CrO4 precipitate will form. b. In the solution consisting of 1.0 x10-4 M Ag+ and 1.0 x10-4 M IO3-, Ag(IO3) precipitate will form. c. In pure water, the solubility of Ag2CrO4 is lower than the solubility of Ag(IO3). d. In the solution consisting of 0.200 M CrO42- and 0.200 M IO3-, Ag2(CrO4) will precipitate first if we add Ag+ ions gradually into the above mixture.arrow_forwardComplete the table by calculating the theoretical yield of SLT-88 and the percent yield of SLT-88.
