Answer : The correct option is B (clay, slit, sand).

Explanation :

Soil particles are of three types : Sand, Slit and clay. Most of the soils particles are made up of a combination of sand, slit and clay.

Particle size range of the sand = 2.00 -0.05 mm

Particle size range of the slit = 0.05 -0.002 mm

Particle size range of the sand = less than 0.002 mm

Sand is the largest soil particle, clay is the smallest soil particle and slit particle is present in between the sand & clay particle.

Therefore, the order from smaller to larger sediment particles is

Clay > Slit > Sand

<em>K</em> = 5.0 × 10^25

<h2>Part (a). Calculate <em>E</em>° for the reaction </h2>

<em>Step 1.</em> Write the equations for the two half-reactions

2H^(+)(aq) + 2e^(-) → H2(g); _0.00 V

Zn^(2+)(aq) + 2e^(-) → Zn(s); -0.76 V

<em>Step 2.</em> Identify the cathode and the anode

The half-cell with the more negative <em>E</em>° (Zn) is the anode.

<em>Step 3.</em> Calculate <em>E</em>°

Zn(s) → Zn^(2+)(aq) + 2e^(-); _________+0.76 V

2H^(+)(aq) + 2e^(-) → H2(g); __________0.00 V

Zn(s) + 2H^(+)(aq) → Zn^(2+)(aq) + H2(g); +0.76 V

<em>E</em>° = +0.76 V

<h2>Part (b). Calculate <em>K</em> for the reaction </h2>

The relation between <em>E</em>° and <em>K</em> is

<em>E</em>° = (<em>RT</em>)/(<em>nF</em>)ln<em>K </em>

where

<em>R</em> = the universal gas constant: 8.314 J·K^(-1)mol^(-1)

<em>T</em> = the Kelvin temperature

<em>n</em> = the moles of electrons transferred

<em>F</em> = the Faraday constant: 96 485 J·V^(-1)mol^(-1)

Then

0.76 V = [8.314 J·K^(-1)mol^(-1) × 298.15 K]/[2 × 96 485 J·V^(-1)mol^(-1)]ln<em>K</em>

0.76 = 0.012 85 ln<em>K</em>

ln<em>K</em> = 0.76/0.012 85 = 59.16

<em>K</em> =e^59.16 = 5.0 × 10^25

4. A term base or glossary is a database containing single words or expressions related to a specific subject.
5. Strong acid is an acid that ionizes completely in aqueous solution. It always loses a proton (H+) when dissolved in water. Weak acid is an acid that ionizes partially in a solution. ... Because the rate of reaction depends upon the degree of dissociation αand strong acids have higher degrees of dissociation.

The half-life of a radioactive isotope is the amount of time it takes for a quantity of that isotope to decay to one half of its
Sedaia [141]

Radio active decay reactions follow first order rate kinetics.

a) The half life and decay constant for radio active decay reactions are related by the equation:

t_{\frac{1}{2}} =\frac{ln 2}{k}

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

Where k is the decay constant

b) Finding out the decay constant for the decay of C-14 isotope:

Decay constant (k) = \frac{0.693}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}

k = \frac{0.693}{5230 years}

k = 1.325 * 10^{-4} yr^{-1}

c) Finding the age of the sample :

35 % of the radiocarbon is present currently.

The first order rate equation is,

[A] = [A_{0}]e^{-kt}

\frac{[A]}{[A_{0}]} = e^{-kt}

\frac{35}{100} = e^{-(1.325 *10^{-4})t}

ln(0.35) = -(1.325 *10^{-4})(t)

t = 7923 years

Therefore, age of the sample is 7923 years.
