After 72000 years, the half life would have passed 3 times.

This means that (1/2)^3 = 1/8 of the original sample would remain.

The original sample is 100.0 g, meaning that 1/8 of the sample would be 12.5 g.

So, the answer is D.

Draw the product(s) that are expected when tert-butyl bromide undergoes solvolysis in isopropanol, (CH3)2CHOH.
N76 [4]
Those reactions in which Alkyl Halide reacts with the solvent without the involvement of any acid or base is called as Solvolysis. In given problem <em>tert</em>-Butyl Bromide is a tertiary Alkyl Halide and we know well that tertiary alkyl halides undergo SN¹ and E¹ elimination reaction due to the formation of stable tertiary carbocation. In given example after the formation of carbocation when Isopropyl act as nucleophile it will produce ether and when it acts as a base it will produce unsaturated compound. The reaction along with both products is shown below,

How much calcium can be recovered from 75.0g of calcium fluoride
7nadin3 [17]

38.46g

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of CaF₂ = 75.0g

Unknown:

Mass of calcium that can be recovered = ?

Solution:

This is a mass percentage problem and we need to solve it accordingly.

To solve this problem;

Find the molar mass of  CaF₂

Find the ratio between the molar mass of Ca and that of  CaF₂

Multiply by the given mass

Molar mass of  CaF₂ = 40 + (2 x 19) = 78g/mol

Mass of calcium = \frac{40}{78} x 75 = 38.46g

A solution containing aluminium ions forms a white precipitate when a few drops of dilute sodium hydroxide solution are added to
Otrada [13]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

A word equation tries to depict a chemical reaction in words. Letters rather than only chemical formulas are used to show the reaction equation.

Now we want to write a word equation that shows the reaction of sodium hydroxide solution and aluminium sulphate solution:

Alumunium sulphate + sodium hydroxide ------>Aluminium hydroxide + sodium sulphate
