Select the correct answer. if two half-lives have passed since a scientist collected a 1.00-gram sample of u-235, how much u-235

is left now? a. 0.001 g b. 0.100 g c. 0.250 g d. 0.450 g e. 3.00 g

Answer:

0.25 g of U-235 isotope will left .

Formula used :

where,

N = amount of U-235 left after n-half lives = ?

= Initial amount of the U-235 = 1.00 g

n = number of half lives passed = 2

0.25 g of U-235 isotope will left .

We want to calculate the concentrations of all species in a 0.58 M Na 2 SO 3 (sodium sulfite) solution. The ionization constants

NeX [460]

Explanation:

Reaction equation is as follows.

$Na_{2}SO_{3}(s) \rightarrow 2Na^{+}(aq) + SO^{2-}_{3}(aq)$

Here, 1 mole of $Na_{2}SO_{3}$ produces 2 moles of cations.

$[Na^{+}] = 2[Na_{2}SO_{3}] = 2 \times 0.58$

= 1.16 M

$[SO^{2-}_{3}] = [Na_{2}SO_{3}]$ = 0.58 M

The sulphite anion will act as a base and react with $H_{2}O$ to form $HSO^{-}_{3}$ and $OH^{-}$ .

As, $K_{b} = \frac{K_{w}}{K_{a_{2}}}$

= $\frac{10^{-14}}{6.3 \times 10^{-8}}$

= $1.59 \times 10^{-7}$

According to the ICE table for the given reaction,

$SO^{2-}_{3} + H_{2}O \rightleftharpoons HSO^{-}_{3} + OH^{-}$

Initial: 0.58 0 0

Change: -x +x +x

Equilibrium: 0.58 - x x x

So,

$K_{b} = \frac{[HSO^{-}_{3}][OH^{-}]}{[SO^{2-}_{3}]}$

$1.59 \times 10^{-7} = \frac{x^{2}}{0.58 - x}$

$x^{2} = 1.59 \times 10^{-7} \times (0.58 - x)$

x = 0.0003 M

So, x = $[HSO^{-}_{3}] = [OH^{-}]$ = 0.0003 M

$[SO^{2-}_{3}]$ = 0.58 - 0.0003

= 0.579 M

Now, we will use $[HSO^{-}_{3}]$ = 0.0003 M

The reaction will be as follows.

$HSO^{2-}_{3} + H_{2}O \rightleftharpoons H_{2}SO_{3} + OH^{-}$

Initial: 0.0003

Equilibrium: 0.0003 - x x x

$K_{b} = \frac{x^{2}}{0.0003 - x}$

$K_{b} = \frac{K_{w}}{K_{a_{1}}}$

= $\frac{10^{-14}}{1.4 \times 10^{-2}}$

= $7.14 \times 10^{-13}$

Therefore, $7.14 \times 10^{-13} = \frac{x^{2}}{0.0003 - x}$

As, x <<<< 0.0003. So, we can neglect x.

Therefore, $x^{2} = 7.14 \times 10^{-13} \times 0.0003$

= $0.00214 \times 10^{-13}$

x = $0.0146 \times 10^{-6}$

x = $[OH^{-}] = [H_{2}SO_{3}]$ = $1.46 \times 10^{-8}$

$[H^{+}] = \frac{10^{-14}}{[OH^{-}]}$

= $\frac{10^{-14}}{0.0003}$

= $3.33 \times 10^{-11}$ M

Thus, we can conclude that the concentration of spectator ion is $3.33 \times 10^{-11}$ M.

Justin mixed two clear liquids together during an experiment and made the following observations:

svp [43]

Answer:

B. A chemical change occurred which caused the liquid's physical properties to change.

Explanation:

The reduction of the temperature of the system meant that the reaction absorbed heat energy from it. This shows that a chemical reaction was in progress. New products were formed, and this is proved by the change in the color to blue.
