Carbon 14 and carbon 12 are the same element because they contain the number of proton in the periodic table. but the different in number (14 and 12) is from the neutron

A gas occupies 25.3 at pressure of 790.5 mmHg. Determine the volume if the pressure is reduced to 8.04 mmHg
taurus [48]

Answer:

2487.51.

Explanation:

As per Boyle's law temperature remaining constant the volume of an ideal gas is inversely proportional to its pressure.

pV= k

therefore, p1V1 = p2V2

here V1 = 25.3, p2 = 8.04mm Hg

pressure p1 = 790.5 mm Hg

this means that

25.3×790.5 = 8.04V2

⇒V2= 2487.51

Hence, the required volume is, 2487.51.

Write a balanced nuclear reaction for the following:
Andru [333]
<span>Balanced nuclear reaction: 234/91 Pa → 4/2 He + 230/89 Ac.
1) number of protons and neutrons on both side of nuclear reaction must be the same. There are 91 protons (atomic number) and 143 neutrons (mass number - atomic number, 234 - 91 = 143 or (4-2) + (230 - 89) = 143)) on both side of reaction.
2) a</span>lpha decay is radioactive decay<span> in which an atomic nucleus emits an alpha particle (helium nucleus) and transforms into an atom with an atomic number that is reduced by two and mass number that is reduced by four, so atomic mass of new element is 89 (91 - 2) and mass number is 230 (234 - 4 = 230).
3) look at atomic number, element with atomic number 89 is actinium.</span>

The rate constant for a certain reaction is k = 4.70×10−3 s−1 . If the initial reactant concentration was 0.700 M, what will the
Lynna [10]

Answer:

Therefore the concentration of the reactant after 4.00 minutes will be 0.686M.

Explanation:

The unit of k is s⁻¹.

The order of the reaction = first order.

First order reaction: A first order reaction is  a reaction in which the rate of reaction depends only the value of the concentration of the reactant.

-\frac{d[A]}{dt} =kt

[A] = the concentration of the reactant at time t

k= rate constant

t= time

Here k= 4.70×10⁻³ s⁻¹

t= 4.00

[A₀] = initial concentration of reactant = 0.700 M

-\frac{d[A]}{dt} =kt

\Rightarrow -\frac{d[A]}{[A]}=kdt

Integrating both sides

\Rightarrow\int -\frac{d[A]}{[A]}=\int kdt

⇒ -ln[A] = kt +c

When t=0 , [A] =[A₀]

-ln[A₀]  = k.0 + c

⇒c= -ln[A₀]  

Therefore

-ln[A] = kt - ln[A₀]

Putting the value of k, [A₀] and t

- ln[A] =4.70×10⁻³×4 -ln (0.70)

⇒-ln[A]=  0.375

⇒[A] = 0.686

Therefore the concentration of the reactant after 4.00 minutes will be 0.686M.

Which substance cannot be decomposed by a chemical change?
coldgirl [10]

Copper substance cannot be decomposed by a chemical change.

<h3 />
  • When heated, the copper to carbonate breaks down into copper to oxide. The copper carbonate, which is dark in colour, releases carbon dioxide as well.Because they are the simplest chemically, elements cannot be broken down by chemical processes.

  • Elements are those pure compounds that cannot be broken down by reactions, heating, electrolysis, or other common chemical processes. Examples of elements are oxygen, gold, and silver. Its makeup stays the same, though.  One instance of a physical change is melting.  A physical change is when a sample of matter experiences a change in some of its qualities but not in its identity. Water turns into water vapour when it is heated.
