Barium-131's radiation level won't reach 1/4 of its initial level for 24 hours.

ln[A] t = -kt + ln[A] 0 is the integrated rate rule for the first-order reaction A's products.

A straight line is produced when the natural log of [A] is plotted as a function of time since this equation has the form y = mx + b.

How is the length of a half-life determined?

The amount of time needed for the reactant concentration to drop to half its initial value is known as the half-life of a reaction. A first-order reaction's half-life is a constant that is correlated with its rate constant:

t 1/2 = 0.693/k.

The student is now told that the four solids, in no particular order, are aluminum chloride (AlCl3), sugar (C6H12O6), benzoic ac
zaharov [31]

Answer:

AlCl₃, NaBr, C₆H₅COOH, C₆H₁₂O₆.

Explanation:

The more ions in solution, the greater the conductivity of a solution because these charged particles can carry electrons in the solution.

In the first place, when AlCl₃ dissolves in water it produces 4 ions:

AlCl₃(aq) ⇄ Al³⁺(aq) + 3 Cl⁻(aq)

If the solution is 0.20M in AlCl₃, it will be 4 x 0.20M = 0.80M in ions.

Secondly, NaBr is a strong electrolyte (<em>complete ionization</em>) so it produces 2 moles of ions per each mole of NaBr dissolved:

NaBr(aq) ⇄ Na⁺(aq) + Br⁻(aq)

If the solution is 0.20M in NaBr, it will be 2 x 0.20M = 0.40M in ions.

Then, benzoic acid is a weak electrolyte (<em>partial ionization</em>) so it will produce <em>less than</em> 2 moles of ions per each mole of benzoic acid dissolved:

C₆H₅COOH(aq) ⇄ C₆H₅COO⁻(aq) + H⁺(aq)

If the solution is 0.20M in benzoic acid, the solution will be far below 0.40M in ions.

Finally, sugar has only nonpolar covalent bonds so it will produce no ions in solution, thus being a poor electricity conductor.

What would be the vapor pressure at 25.0 °c of a solution of 5.00 g of glucose (c6h12o6) in 100.0 g of ethanol (c2h5oh)?
Crank
Use Raoult's Law:
Psolution = (χsolvent) (P°solvent)

24.90 = (x) (25.756)

x = 0.966765 (this is the solvent mole fraction)

χsolute = 1 - 0.966765 = 0.033235

χsolute = 0.03324 (to four sig figs)

If you eat 3 apples. How many apples do you have?
Ugo [173]

Answer:

Let's say we were Subtracting 3-2=? To Find the Answer we would Subtract  2 from 3 which is 1 Simple our answer is 1  But let's say the Question is 3 - 1= ? to find this answer we would subtract 1 from 3 which is 2 Let's say you were subtracting 3-3=? to do this we take 3 away from 3 now 3 is 0 so our answer is 0 so there are 3 different problems we can make with 3 we could make more but I'm just telling the basics Hope I Helped Bye :)

Which machine is the least simple? a bike a screw an inclined plane a lever
Ivenika [448]

Answer: A bike

A bike is composed of various simple machines. It has a wheel and axle as one component, and it also has screws to hold the various parts together, along with levers and pulleys that are connected to the pedals. So all of these simple machine concepts work together to help transport the rider from point A to point B.

The other answer choices of screw, inclined plane, and lever, are fairly simple machines that don't have many things going on at once compared to a bike.
