Answer:

For plato, the answer is C: after each half tile, the amount of radioactive material is reduced by half

storchak [24]2 years ago

Answer: b} The exact time when an individual atom will decay can be accurately predicted.

c} After each half-life, the amount of radioactive material is reduced by half.

Explanation:

All radioactive decay  follows first order kinetics.

Rate law expression for first order kinetics is given by:

t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{a}{a-x}

where,

k = rate constant

t = time taken for decay process

a = initial amount of the reactant

a - x = amount left after decay process

Expression for calculating half life, which is the time taken by the half of the reactants to decompose is:

t_{1/2}=\frac{0.693}{k}

Calculate the moles of calcium oxalate formed from 5 grams of potassium oxalate (molar mass 184.24 g/mol) the mole mole ratio fr
Nataly_w [17]

5 g of potassium oxalate react to produce 0.03 moles of calcium oxalate.

Calcium oxalate (CaC₂O₄) is obtained by the reaction of 5 g of potassium oxalate (K₂C₂O₄).

We can calculate the moles of CaC₂O₄ obtained considering the following relationships.

  • The molar mass of K₂C₂O₄ is 184.24 g/mol.
  • The mole ratio of K₂C₂O₄ to CaC₂O₄ is 2:1.

5 g K_2C_2O_4 \times \frac{1molK_2C_2O_4}{184.24gK_2C_2O_4}  \times \frac{1molCaC_2O_4}{2molK_2C_2O_4} = 0.03molCaC_2O_4

5 g of potassium oxalate react to produce 0.03 moles of calcium oxalate.

A methanol-water mixture is to be flash distilled at 1 atm. If the feed is 25 mole %methanol, what are the liquid and vapor comp
frozen [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that:

The distillation is carried out at a pressure of 1 atm

The feed harbors 25% mole of methanol (z)

The total moles of feed is usually 100 moles

In the system, we have both methanol and water

Using the total mole balance for the distillation column.

Fz = Lx + Vy

where;

F = amount of feed

z = mole fraction of ethanol (in feed)

L = amount of liquid product out of the column

V = amount of vapor product out of the column

x = mole fraction of methanol out of the liquid

y  = mole fraction of methanol out of the vapor.

SO;

(a)

If all the feed is vaporized, then the vapor will likely have the same composition as the feed.

(b)

If no vaporization of the feed takes place, then the bottoms moving out of the column contains the same composition as the feed.

(c)

If 1/3 of the feed is vaporized; then 2/3 of the feed is at the bottom.

The balance equation would be:

Fz = (\dfrac{2}{3}F) x + (\dfrac{1}{3}F)y \\ \\ z = \dfrac{2}{3}x+\dfrac{1}{3}y

Replacing z = 0.25; we have:

0.25 = \dfrac{2}{3}x+\dfrac{1}{3}y

0.75 = 2x + y

(d)

If 2/3 of the feed is vaporized;

Then:

Fz = (\dfrac{1}{3}F) x + (\dfrac{2}{3}F)y \\ \\ z = \dfrac{1}{3}x+\dfrac{2}{3}y

replacing z = 0.25

0.25 = \dfrac{1}{3}x+\dfrac{2}{3}y

0.75 = x + 2y

Which of the following ions is formed when an acid is dissolved in a solution? (5 points)
olasank [31]

Answer:

H +

Explanation:

Acid are those species which donates the H+ ion when dissolved in a solution. In other way acid are those chemical species which donate proton to other species as proton means H+ ion so H+ ions are formed as a result of dissolution ..
