I was told to start with a piece of printer paper and cut it in half. Set aside one of the halves. Then cut the second half in half again. Repeat this until you are unable to cut the paper. The results were 13 cuts and a final area of 7.36E-6 m^2. Each cut represents a half-life of a molecule. Please explain how this relates to the half-life of Uranium-235?

Background (Part 1): We are continuously exposed to ionizing radiation from natural and artificial sources. All of us are exposed to radiation every day, from natural sources such as minerals in the ground and cosmic radiation to man-made sources such as medical x-rays. According to the National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP), the average annual radiation dose per person in the U.S. is 620 millirem. In this activity, you will use the interactive online dose calculator to estimate...

if a reaction is Oxidation reduction or not. Thanks a lot
OXIDATION-REDUCTION Introduction Chemists refer to reactions which involve a transfer of electrons from one reactant to another as oxidation reduction reactions of just "redox" reactions. Oxidation is defined as a loss of electron and reduction as a gain of electron by a substance during a chemical reaction. The loss of electrons by one substance...

Exercise 2 Separation of a Mixture Based on Acid-Base Properties One purpose of this exercise is to learn how to use a separatory funnel to extract a single component away from other compounds in solution. To do so, we will apply the principles of solubility and acid-base behavior you’re seeing in class. One of the compounds is neutral in the acid-base sense. It has no ability to either donate or accept a proton from an aqueous solution, and will remain...
