Assume that you have developed a tracer with first-order kinetics and k = 0.1 s − 1 . For any given mass, how long will it take

anygoal [31]

Answer: It will take 6.93 sec for tracer concentration to drop by 50% and 13.9 sec for tracer concentration to drop by 75%

Explanation:

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

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

where,

k = rate constant = $0.1s^{-1}$

t = age of sample

a = let initial amount of the reactant = 100 g

a - x = amount left after decay process

a) for tracer concentration to drop by 50%

a - x = amount left after decay process = 50

$t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{100}{50}$

$t=\frac{0.693}{0.1}$

$t=6.93sec$

It will take 6.93 sec for tracer concentration to drop by 50%

b) for tracer concentration to drop by 75 %

a - x = amount left after decay process = 25

$t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{100}{100-75}$

$t=\frac{2.303}{0.1}\times \log\frac{100}{25}$

$t=13.9sec$

It will take 13.9 sec for tracer concentration to drop by 75%.

6)Explain why a 0.010 M solution of hydrochloric acid, HCl has a pH of 2.00 but a 0.010 M solution of

ExtremeBDS [4]

0.010 M solution of hydrochloric acid, HCl has a pH of 2.00 but a 0.010 M solution of acetic acid, HCH₃COO, is 3.37 is because HCl dissociates more.

<h3>Dissociation</h3>

This is the separation of ions of an ionic compound when it dissolves.

<h3>Hydrogen ion concentration of HCl</h3>

Since 0.010 M solution of hydrochloric acid, HCl has a pH of 2.00 its hydrogen ion concentration is gotten from

pH = -log[H⁺]

So,

$[H^{+} ] = 10^{-pH}$

So, [H⁺] = 10⁻²

<h3>Hydrogen ion concentration of HCH₃COO</h3>

Also, since 0.010 M solution of acetic acid, HCH₃COO, has a pH of 3.37, its hydrogen ion concentration is gotten from

pH = -log[H⁺]

So,

$[H^{+} ] = 10^{-pH}$

So, [H⁺] = 10⁻³°³⁷ = 0.000427 = 4.27 × 10⁻⁴

Since the hydrogen ion concentration of HCl is 10⁻² and the hydrogen ion concentration of HCH₃COO is 4.27 × 10⁻⁴, we see that HCl dissociates more than HCH₃COO.

So, 0.010 M solution of hydrochloric acid, HCl has a pH of 2.00 but a 0.010 M solution of acetic acid, HCH₃COO, is 3.37 is because HCl dissociates more.
