Correct Question:
A spectator ion is (Select all that apply.)
- a piece of french fry contaminating the reaction mixture
- an ionic component of a reactant that is unchanged by the reaction
-in this experiment, nitrate ion
- your eye, carefully watching the progress of the reaction
Answer:
- an ionic component of a reactant that is unchanged by the reaction
Explanation:
A spectator ion is an ion that exists as a reactant and a product in a chemical equation. A spectator ion is one that exists in the same form on both the reactant and product sides of a chemical reaction.
Spectator ions are ions that are present in a solution but don't take part in the reaction. When reactants dissociate into ions, some of the ions may combine to form a new compound. The other ions don't take part in this chemical reaction and are therefore called spectator ions.
The correct option is therefore the option;
- an ionic component of a reactant that is unchanged by the reaction
Radio active decay reactions follow first order rate kinetics.
a) The half life and decay constant for radio active decay reactions are related by the equation:
Where k is the decay constant
b) Finding out the decay constant for the decay of C-14 isotope:
c) Finding the age of the sample :
35 % of the radiocarbon is present currently.
The first order rate equation is,
![[A] = [A_{0}]e^{-kt}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5BA%5D%20%3D%20%5BA_%7B0%7D%5De%5E%7B-kt%7D%20%20%20)
![\frac{[A]}{[A_{0}]} = e^{-kt}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Cfrac%7B%5BA%5D%7D%7B%5BA_%7B0%7D%5D%7D%20%3D%20e%5E%7B-kt%7D%20%20)
t = 7923 years
Therefore, age of the sample is 7923 years.
