Janice needs to have a gastro-intestinal study. So she is given 375 mg of radiocontrast dye containing Barium-142. The half-life

of Ba-142 is 10.6 minutes and its decay is followed by -ray. After one half -life, of Ba-142 remains . After 31.8 minutes , of Ba-142 remains . After half-lives, 11.7 mg of Ba - 142 remains . After minutes , 0.366 mg of Ba - 142 remains. Finally, after approximately 3.5 hours - half-lives , only 0.000358 mg remains . The dye is no longer visible to the Xray and Janice's study is over .

After one half life, 188mg

46.9 mg of Ba-142

After 5 half lives

After 106 minutes

20 half lives , only 0.000358 mg remains

Hope this helps

Consider the half reactions below for a chemical reaction.
ladessa [460]

Answer:

Option A:

Zn(s) + Cu^(2+) (aq) → Cu(s) + Zn^(2+)(aq)

Explanation:

The half reactions given are:

Zn(s) → Zn^(2+)(aq) + 2e^(-)

Cu^(2+) (aq) + 2e^(-) → Cu(s)

From the given half reactions, we can see that in the first one, Zn undergoes oxidation to produce Zn^(2+).

While in the second half reaction, Cu^(2+) is reduced to Cu.

Thus, for the overall reaction, we will add both half reactions to get;

Zn(s) + Cu^(2+) (aq) + 2e^(-) → Cu(s) + Zn^(2+)(aq) + 2e^(-)

2e^(-) will cancel out to give us;

Zn(s) + Cu^(2+) (aq) → Cu(s) + Zn^(2+)(aq)

Hello, everyone!
marusya05 [52]

Answer: 27.09 ppm and 0.003 %.

First, <u>for air pollutants, ppm refers to parts of steam or gas per million parts of contaminated air, which can be expressed as cm³ / m³. </u>Therefore, we must find the volume of CO that represents 35 mg of this gas at a temperature of -30 ° C and a pressure of 0.92 atm.

Note: we consider 35 mg since this is the acceptable hourly average concentration of CO per cubic meter m³ of contaminated air established in the "National Ambient Air Quality Objectives". The volume of these 35 mg of gas will change according to the atmospheric conditions in which they are.

So, according to the <em>law of ideal gases,</em>  

PV = nRT

where P, V, n and T are the pressure, volume, moles and temperature of the gas in question while R is the constant gas (0.082057 atm L / mol K)

The moles of CO will be,

n = 35 mg x \frac{1 g}{1000 mg} x \frac{1 mol}{28.01 g}

→ n = 0.00125 mol

We clear V from the equation and substitute P = 0.92 atm and

T = -30 ° C + 273.15 K = 243.15 K

V =  \frac{0.00125 mol x 0.082057 \frac{atm L}{mol K}  x 243 K}{0.92 atm}

→ V = 0.0271 L

As 1000 cm³ = 1 L then,

V = 0.0271 L x \frac{1000 cm^{3} }{1 L} = 27.09 cm³

<u>Then the acceptable concentration </u><u>c</u><u> of CO in ppm is,</u>

c = 27 cm³ / m³ = 27 ppm

<u>To express this concentration in percent by volume </u>we must consider that 1 000 000 cm³ = 1 m³ to convert 27.09 cm³ in m³ and multiply the result by 100%:

c = 27.09 \frac{cm^{3} }{m^{3} } x \frac{1 m^{3} }{1 000 000 cm^{3} } x 100%

c = 0.003 %

So, <u>the acceptable concentration of CO if the temperature is -30 °C and pressure is 0.92 atm in ppm and as a percent by volume is </u>27.09 ppm and 0.003 %.
