write the elements in order of atomic mass, space between the symbols, no commas

Thanks, on to silver now

can you show me how to do Rg? I keep getting the value of 0.000104 hours, but this is obviously wrong.

You don't need diffs to answer Rg
My chemistry teacher gave everyone this sheet to help

That uses the integrated form of the DE.

im so dumb.... now im getting 1663 hours but that is also wrong urggh..... in the end, a semi final conclusion was that 0.5006573143=t/h - is this correct or wrong?

Close, but no cigar.

For that picture, it's really just a ****ty way of solving

dMdt=Aekt,k,AR\dfrac{\text{d}M}{\text{d}t} = \text{A}e^{-\text{k}t}, \: \text{k}, \text{A} \in \mathbb{R}

You should be able to work out what k and A are pretty easily.

As for where you're going wrong:

alow you do me too much honour!!!
hey:smile: im on the gold challenge, but my poor year 11 brain cant handle this, i think its something to do with it being a crystal (ionic lattice), ive tried using CPK colouring to determine the elements but that doesn't work, i think the fractions are just to show the position on the atom, but are they more relevant, any useful tips for figuring it out ??
Guys it's almost May!!:eek:
