Answer:
0.16 moles of Carbon
Explanation:
The balanced reaction equation:
+ 
→ 
+ 
↑
The mole ratio of Carbon to Iron is 3 : 4 (since Fe2O3 is in excess)
i.e 3 moles of C produces 4 moles of Fe.
If 1 mole of Fe - 55.8g of Fe
? moles - 11.6g of Fe
= 
= 0.208 moles
But 3 moles of C - 4 moles of Fe
? moles of C - 0.208 moles of Fe
= 
= 0.16 moles of carbon.
I hope this explanation was clear and useful.
Answer:
5.0 x 10⁹ years.
Explanation:
- It is known that the decay of a radioactive isotope isotope obeys first order kinetics.
- Half-life time is the time needed for the reactants to be in its half concentration.
- If reactant has initial concentration [A₀], after half-life time its concentration will be ([A₀]/2).
- Also, it is clear that in first order decay the half-life time is independent of the initial concentration.
- The half-life of K-40 = 1.251 × 10⁹ years.
- For, first order reactions:
<em>k = ln(2)/(t1/2) = 0.693/(t1/2).</em>
Where, k is the rate constant of the reaction.
t1/2 is the half-life of the reaction.
∴ k =0.693/(t1/2) = 0.693/(1.251 × 10⁹ years) = 5.54 x 10⁻¹⁰ year⁻¹.
- Also, we have the integral law of first order reaction:
<em>kt = ln([A₀]/[A]),</em>
where, k is the rate constant of the reaction (k = 5.54 x 10⁻¹⁰ year⁻¹).
t is the time of the reaction (t = ??? year).
[A₀] is the initial concentration of (K-40) ([A₀] = 100%).
[A] is the remaining concentration of (K-40) ([A] = 6.25%).
∴ (5.54 x 10⁻¹⁰ year⁻¹)(t) = ln((100%)/( 6.25%))
∴ (5.54 x 10⁻¹⁰ year⁻¹)(t) = 2.77.
∴ t = 2.77/(5.54 x 10⁻¹⁰ year⁻¹) = 5.0 x 10⁹ years.
