Answer: 12.5 mg

Explanation:

The half-life of Iodine -123 is 13 hours.

Between 8 am on Monday and 10 am on Tuesday will be 26 hours.

After the first 13 hours, the Iodine should be left with half of its initial quantity

= 50/2

= 25 mg

There are now 13 hours remaining meaning that the Iodine will be half of the 25mg after that period.

= 25/2

= 12.5 mg.

12.5 mg remain at 10 am the next day.

Given 50.0 grams of Strontium, find grams of Phosphorus required for complete reaction
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

                     Mass = 11.78 g of P₄

Explanation:

                     The balance chemical equation is as follow:

                                          6 Sr + P4 → 2 Sr₃P₂

Step 1: Calculate moles of Sr as;

Moles = Mass / M/Mass

Moles = 50.0 g / 87.62 g/mol

Moles = 0.570 moles

Step 2: Find moles of P₄ as;

According to equation,

6 moles of Sr reacted with  =  1 mole of P₄

So,

0.570 moles of Sr will react with  =  X moles of P₄

Solving for X,

X = 1 mol × 0.570 mol / 6 mol

X = 0.0952 mol of P₄

Step 3: Calculate mass of P₄ as,

Mass = Moles × M.Mass

Mass = 0.0952 mol × 123.89 g/mol

Mass = 11.78 g of P₄
