Radiation decrease over time due to the concentration of radioactive atoms and the concentration decreases as radioactive particles are emitted (Option D).

<h3>What is radiation?</h3>

Radiation refers to the transmission of energy by means of subatomic particles that travel as waves.

Radioactive isotopes are also known as radioisotopes, which have unstable combinations of subatomic particles (i.e., neutrons or protons) in their atomic nuclei, and thus may emit alpha particles, gamma rays or beta particles.

Radioactive isotopes such as C14 lost (emit) energy per unit of time, which is known as radiation or radioactive decay.

In conclusion, radiation decrease over time due to the concentration of radioactive atoms and the concentration decreases as radioactive particles are emitted (Option D).

How many moles of SO2 are required to produce 0.45 mole CS2?
Kaylis [27]

Answer: The moles of carbon needed will be, 13.8 moles

Explanation: Moles of  = 5.52 mole

Now we have to calculate to moles of carbon.

The given balanced chemical reaction is,

From the balanced chemical reaction, we conclude that

As, 2 mole of  react to give 5 moles of carbon

So, 5.52 mole of  react to give  moles of carbon

Therefore, the moles of carbon needed will be, 13.8 moles

You are asked to prepare 500 mL 0.300 M500 mL 0.300 M acetate buffer at pH 4.904.90 using only pure acetic acid ( MW=60.05 g/mol
defon

Answer:

You will need 9,0 g of acetic acid

Explanation:

The equilibrium acetate-acetic acid is:

CH₃COOH ⇄ CH₃COO⁻ + H⁺ pka = 4,76

Using Henderson-Hasselbalch you will obtain:

pH = pka + log₁₀\frac{[A^{-}]}{[HA]}

Where HA is acetic acid and A⁻ is acetate ion

4,90 = 4,76 + log₁₀\frac{[A^{-}]}{[HA]}

1,38 = \frac{[A^{-}]}{[HA]} <em>(1)</em>

As acetate concentration is 0,300M:

0,300M = [HA] + [A⁻] <em>(2)</em>

Replacing (2) in (1):

[HA] = 0,126 M

And:

[A⁻] = 0,174 M

As you need to produce 500 mL:

0,5 L × 0,126 M = 0,063 moles of acetic acid

0,5 L × 0,174 M = 0,087 moles of acetate

To produce moles of acetate from acetic acid:

CH₃COOH + NaOH → CH₃COO⁻ + Na⁺ + H₂O

Thus, moles of acetate are equivalents to moles of NaOH and all acetates comes from acetic acid, thus:

0,087 moles of acetate + 0,063 moles of acetic acid  ≡ 0,15 moles of acetic acid ×\frac{60,05 g}{1mol} = <em>9,0 g of acetic acid</em>

<em></em>

I hope it helps!
