under certain Water conditions, the free chlorine (hypochlorous acid, HOCI) in a swimming pool decomposes according to the law of uninhabited decay. after shocking a pool, the pool boy, Geoff, tested the water and found the amount of free chlorine to be 2.4 parts per million (ppm). 24 hours later, Geoff tested the water again in from the amount of free chlorine to be 2.1 ppm. what will the reading after two days (that is, 48 hours)? when the chlorine level reaches 1.0 ppm, Geoff must shock the pool again. how long can just go before he must shock the pool again?
Under certain water conditions, the free chlorine (hypochlorous acid, HOCI) in a swimming pool decomposes according to the law of uninhibited decay. After shocking a
pool, the pool boy, Geoff, tested the water and found the amount of free chlorine to be 2.7 parts per million (ppm). Twenty-four hours later, Geoff tested the water again
and found the amount of free chlorine to be 2.4 ppm. What will be the reading after 3 days (that is, 72 hours)? When the chlorine level reaches 1.0 ppm, Geoff must
shock the pool again. How long can Geoff go before he must shock the pool again?

After shocking a pool, the pool boy, Geoff, tested the water and found the amount of free chlorine to be 2.6 parts per million (ppm). Twenty-four hours later, Geoff tested the water again and found the amount of free chlorine to be 2.3 ppm. What will be the reading after 2days (that is,48 hours)? When the chlorine level reaches 1.0 ppm, Geoff must shock the pool again. How long can Geoff go before he must shock the pool again? After 2 days or 48 hours, the amount of free chlorine in the pool will be ____ppm.arrow_forwardUnder certain water conditions, the free chlorine (hypochlorous acid, HOCI) in a swimming pool decomposes according to the law of uninhibited decay. After shocking a pool, the pool boy, Geoff, tested the water and found the amount of free chlorine to be 2.4 parts per million (ppm). Twenty-four hours later, Geoff tested the water again and found the amount of free chlorine to be 2.1 ppm. What will be the reading after 3 days (that is, 72 hours)? When the chlorine level reaches 1.0 ppm, Geoff must shock the pool again. How long can Geoff go before he must shock the pool again?arrow_forwardUnder certain water conditions, the free chlorine (hypochlorous acid/HOCI) in a swimming pool decomposes according to the law of uninhibited decay. After shocking a pool, the pool boy, Geoff, tested the water and found the amount of free chlorine to be 26 parts per million (ppm). Twenty-four hours later, Geoff tested the water again and found the amount of free chlorine to be 2.2 ppm. What will be the reading after 3 days (that is. 72 hours)? When the chiorine level reaches 1,0 ppm/Geoff must shock the pool again. How long can Geoff go before he must shock the pool again? After 3 days, or 72 hours, the amount of free chlorine in the pool will be ppm/ (Do not round until the final answer. Then round to the nearest hundredth as needed.) Geoff will need to shock the pool again in hours. (Do not round until the final answer. Then round to the nearest tenth as needed.) An Pal ▸arrow_forward
- An element has a half life of 2.5 billion years a. you find a rock containing a mixture of the element and lead. You determin that 20% of the original element remains: the other 80% decayed into lead. How olt is the rock? b. Another rock contains 55% of the original element; the other 45% decayed into lead. How old is the rock?arrow_forwardThe half-life of substance X is 3.5 years. How long will it take for a 96.0 mg sample of substance X to decay and only have 3.0 mg of it remaining?arrow_forwardConsider an automobile assembly line in which each car undergoes two typesof service: painting, then engine installation. Each hour, an average of 22.4unpainted chassis arrive at the assembly line. It takes an average of 2.4minutes to paint a car and an average of 3.75 minutes to install an engine.The assembly line has one painter ant two engine installers. Assume thatinterarrival times and service times are exponentiala. On average, how many painted cars without completely installed engineswill be in the facility?b. On average, how long will a painted car have to wait before installation ofits engine begins?arrow_forward
- A bacteria has an initial population of 500 and is doubling every hour. The bacteria reaches a population of 16,000 bacteria.arrow_forwardA particularly virulent form of human-adapted mad cow disease sweeps across the world transforming most of the world into ravenous zombies. The zombie population obeys the law of uninhibited growth. A small group of survivors find an uninfected haven. On the first day in the safe haven, 15 people ate contaminated hamburger and turned into zombies. Ten days later, there are 300 zombies. What is the size of the zombie population after 16 days? Use A(t)=A0e^kt, where t represents the number of days that have passed since the first zombies appeared. Show your work.arrow_forwardUranium-238 (U-238) has a half-life of 4.5 billion years. Geologists find a rock containing a mixture of U-238 and lead, and determine that 67% of the original U-238 remains; the other 33% has decayed into lead. How old is the rock? The rock is billion years old. (Round to three decimal places as needed.)arrow_forward
