How is half time used on an element?
If you mean HALF LIFE, that is the length of time it takes a quantity of a radioactive element to lose half its radioactivity.
What is symbol of DNA?
DNA is not an element. DNA is the brain of the cell, and carries our genetics, traits, and characteristics of ourselves. It is not an element, but a microscopic, double-helix twisted strand that is miles and miles and miles long if it is unwound to its full length. It is not, however, an element.
What is the disintegration rate of radioactive elements?
It varies from one element to another. It is measured in terms of its half-life. A half-life is the length of time it takes for half the number of radioactive atoms of the element in a lump to decay.
What element makes up the skeleton of an organic macromolecules?
The properties of carbon make it the backbone of the organic molecules which form living matter. Carbon is a such a versatile element because it can form four covalent bonds. Carbon skeletons can vary in length, branching, and ring structure.
How would you confirm a successful PCR reaction?
You could do an Agarose Gel Electrophoresis. Run your PCR to a DNA ladder and confirm that the size of your amplified gene corresponds to the appropriate size on your DNA ladder (for example, if your gene is approximately 3000 base pairs in length, it should correspond to the 3000 bp band of the DNA ladder).
How is half time used on an element?
If you mean HALF LIFE, that is the length of time it takes a quantity of a radioactive element to lose half its radioactivity.
Can radioactivity cause death?
Depending on the strength and length of exposure, yes it can.
What happen to angles' length and measure if angle are correspond to each other?
They have equal measures.
How many yards in a neiborhood?
neighborhood is a term for an area where people have settled and does not correspond to a measure of length
Is the longer side in a rectangle always the length?
By convention the longer side is called the length, but it doesn't have to be. Consider a rectangular window: If you were to buy a blind for a window, the length of the blind would correspond to the drop from top to bottom of the window, and the width of the blind would correspond to the distance from side to side. If the window was a short, wide window the width of the blind would be longer than its length!
How long will it take half of a radioactive sample to decay?
The length of time depends on the element and isotope, but the point at which half of the sample has decayed is known as the half-life.
How does the type of radioactivity affect the length of the half life?
Different types of radioactivity have different amounts of energy and this directly impacts the half life. More energy will decrease the half life because it quickly gives off the unstable energy.
What size is silver?
The bond length in silver is: 288.9 pm. One measure of size is the element-element distance within the element.
What does the half life of a radioisotope correspond to?
The length of time required for half of a sample of radioactive material to decay
What is the musical Element associated with note length is called?
Articulation.
How many mm in 9 liters?
Two entirely different types of measurements. One is a measurement of length, and the other is a measurement of volume. They don't correspond to each other.
What is the shortes chemical element?
The smallest (in mass and volume) element is hydrogen symbol: HIt has no specific length, so there's no 'short' one
