After 25 days, it remains radon 5.9x10^5 atoms.

Half-life is the time required for a quantity (in this example number of radioactive radon) to reduce to half its initial value.

N(Ra) = 5.7×10^7; initial number of radon atoms

t1/2(Ra) = 3.8 days; the half-life of the radon is 3.8 days

n = 25 days / 3.8 days

n = 6.58; number of half-lifes of radon

N1(Ra) = N(Ra) x (1/2)^n

N1(Ra) = 5.7×10^7 x (1/2)^6.58

N1(Ra) = 5.9x10^5; number of radon atoms after 25 days

The half-life is independent of initial concentration (size of the sample).

Suppose you want to make an acetic acid/acetate buffer to a pH of 5.00 using 10.0 mL of 1.00 M acetic acid solution. How many mi
olasank [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Molarity of NaOAc needed

Using the Henderson-Hasselbalch Equation calculate base molarity needed given [HOAc] = 1.00M and pKa(NaOAc) = 4.75 and [HOAc] = 1.00m.

pH = pKa + log [NaOAc]/[HOAc]

5.00 = 4.75 + log[NaOAc]/[1.00M]

5.00 - 4.75 = log [NaOAc] - log[1.00M]

log [NaOAc] = 0.25 => [NaOAc] = 10⁰·²⁵ M = 1.78

Given 10ml of HOAc, how much (ml) 1.78M NaOAc to obtain a buffer pH of 5.00.

Determine Volume of Base Needed

(M·V)acid = (M·V)base => V(base) = (M·V)acid / (M)base

Vol (NaOAc) needed = (1.00M)(0.010L)/(1.78M) = 0.0056 liter = 5.6 ml.

Checking Results:

5.00 = 4.75 + log [1.78M]/[1.00M] = 4.75 + 0.25 = 5.00    QED.

When a chemical reaction takes in energy it might feel cold hot boiling electric
padilas [110]

Answer: hot

Explanation:

Exothermic reactions are defined as the reactions in which energy of the product is lesser than the energy of the reactants. The total energy is released in the form of heat and the system will be cold and surroundings will be hot.

Endothermic reactions are defined as the reactions in which energy of the product is greater than the energy of the reactants. The total energy is absorbed in the form of heat and the system will be hot and surroundings will be cold.

As heat is absorbed,  the reaction is endothermic and the system will feel hot.

Aluminum reacts with chlorine gas to form aluminum chloride
VikaD [51]

Answer: 48.95g

Explanation:

no. of moles of Cl2 = 39/(2*35.5) = 0.55 mol

no. of moles of Al = 34/27 = 1.26 mol

hence, aluminium is in excess so we'll do calculation using no. of moles of Cl2 as it will be the only reactant to be used up completely. So,

no of moles of AlCl3 = 2/3 * (0.55) = 0.367 mol

hence amount of AlCl3 = 0.367 * (27+3*35.5) = 48.95g

2 nf3 + 225 kj -&gt; n2 + 3f2 is it exothermic or endothermic
velikii [3]
Due to energy being a reactant instead of a product, the process is endothermic. The system must absorb a quantity of energy before it can react, so it must be an endothermic system.
