Ionic bonds are formed when one of the two atoms that are reacting has excess electrons and transfer the electrons to the atom that is deficient in electrons. During the formation of the ionic bond, one of the reacting atoms will donate electrons and form positive ion.
The atomic number of an element identifies the number of protons and electrons.
Answer:
0.0468 g.
Explanation:
- The decay of radioactive elements obeys first-order kinetics.
- For a first-order reaction: k = ln2/(t1/2) = 0.693/(t1/2).
Where, k is the rate constant of the reaction.
t1/2 is the half-life time of the reaction (t1/2 = 1620 years).
∴ k = ln2/(t1/2) = 0.693/(1620 years) = 4.28 x 10⁻⁴ year⁻¹.
- For first-order reaction: <em>kt = lna/(a-x).</em>
where, k is the rate constant of the reaction (k = 4.28 x 10⁻⁴ year⁻¹).
t is the time of the reaction (t = t1/2 x 8 = 1620 years x 8 = 12960 year).
a is the initial concentration (a = 12.0 g).
(a-x) is the remaining concentration.
∴ kt = lna/(a-x)
(4.28 x 10⁻⁴ year⁻¹)(12960 year) = ln(12)/(a-x).
5.54688 = ln(12)/(a-x).
Taking e for the both sides:
256.34 = (12)/(a-x).
<em>∴ (a-x) = 12/256.34 = 0.0468 g.</em>
