Answer:
= 3/4
Explanation:
Half life is the time taken by a radioactove element to decay by half of its original mass.
The half life of tritium is 12.3 years , therefore it would take 12.3 years for tritium to decay to a half its original mass.
Using the formula;
New mass = Initial mass × (1/2)^n ; where n is the number of half lives.
n = 5.2 years/12.3 years
= 52/123
Therefore;
New mass = 1 × (1/2)^(52/123)
= 0.74599
= 0.75
The fraction of a tritium sample after 5.20 years will be approximately 3/4
You will need the Gas Law:
pV = nRT
Since T and p are constant, R is constant too, then moles increases->volume will increase with the same ratio too!
Answer:
Adding heat and increasing concentration are meant to cause an increase in the rate of a reaction
Explanation:
The rate of a chemical reaction is defined as the number of moles of reactants converted or products formed pee unit time. It is a measure of how quickly the reactants in a given reaction are used up to form products or how quickly products are formed from reactants.
Factors that affect the rate of a chemical reaction include:
1. Nature of reactants
2. Concentration/pressure (for gases) of reactants
3. Temperature of reaction mixture
4. Presence of light
5. Presence of a catalyst
The effect of increasing the concentration of reactants for a given chemical reaction is that the reaction rate will increase. This is so because, according to the collision theory of chemical reactions, the frequency of collision between reactant particles which results in a chemical reaction (effective collisions) will increase when the reactant particles are crowded together in a small space due to an increase in their concentration.
The effect of increasing temperature or adding heat to a reaction is that the reaction rate increases. When the heat is added to a reactant particles, the number of particles with energies greater than or equal to the activation energy (the minimum amount of energy that reactant particles must possess for effective collisions) increases. Also, the average speed of the reactant particles increases resulting in a greater frequency of collision. Hence, the rate of the chemical reaction increases.
Answer : The amount of carbon dioxide produced is, 197.12 grams.
Explanation : Given,
Moles of ethanol = 2.24 mole
Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mole
The balanced chemical reaction will be,
First we have to calculate the moles carbon dioxide.
From the balanced chemical reaction, we conclude that
As, 1 mole of ethanol react to give 2 moles of carbon dioxide
So, 2.24 mole of ethanol react to give 
moles of carbon dioxide
Now we have to calculate the mass of carbon dioxide.
Therefore, the amount of carbon dioxide produced is 197.12 grams.
