How many moles of ions are produced by ionization of 2 moles of MgCl2
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

number of ions = 12.04 x 10^²³

Explanation:

n = number of ions/Avogadro's constant

2 = number of ions/6.02 x 10^²³

number of ions= 2 x 6.02 x 10^²³

number of ions = 12.04 x 10^²³

A container of oxygen with a fixed volume has a pressure of 13.0 atm at a temperature of 20 °C. What will the pressure of the ox
Norma-Jean [14]

Given:

P1 = 13.0 atm

T1 = 20 °C

T2 = 102 °C

Required:

P2 of oxygen

Solution:

At constant volume, we can apply Gay-Lussac’s law of pressure and temperature relationship

P1/T1=P2/T2

(13.0 atm) / (20 °C) = P2 / (102 °C)

P2 = 66.3 atm

The answer is not in the choices given.

If it can be proven that irradiated food is not radioactive, then it will effective dispute the idea that irradiated food are less safe to eat.

  • An irradiated food is one in which ionizing radiations have been employed to improve food quality.
  • Thus, bacteria and other food spoilers can be exterminated from the food.
  • Most irradiated food do not contain radiation and are fit for consumption.

If it can be proven, that this is true, then it will challenge the idea that irradiated foods are not safe.

Chemistry help!! I'll give 30 points!!!

1. 1/16 x 1 000 000= 62500
2. Each half life is 5750 years long
3. The end of a half life is found by dividing the beginning of the half life by 2.
4. The number 62500 is between the 7th and the 8th half lives (refer to the number of 14C atoms on my table)
5. The 7th half life is 40250 years, and the 8th half life is 46000 years.
6. Therefore, your estimate would be a number roughly in the middle of 40250 and 46000 (for example: 43000)
Hope this helps :)
