T is amount after time t 
<span>Ao is initial amount </span>
<span>t is time </span>
<span>HL is half life </span>

<span>log (At) = log [ Ao x (1/2)^(t/HL) ] </span>
<span>log (At) = log Ao + log (1/2)^(t/HL) </span>
<span>log (At) = log Ao + (t/HL) x log (1/2) </span>

<span>( log At - log Ao) / log (1/2) = t / HL </span>
<span>log (At/Ao) / log (1/2) = t / HL </span>

<span>HL = t / [( log (At / Ao)) / log (1/2) ] </span>

<span>HL = 14.4 s / [ ( log (12.5 / 50) / log (1/2) ] </span>

<span>HL = 14.4 s / 2 = 7.2 seconds </span>

If you had a 0.5 M KCl solution, how much solute would you have in moles, and what would the solute be?
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

37.25 grams/L.

Explanation:

  • Molarity (M) is defined as the no. of moles of solute dissolved per 1.0 L of the solution.

<em>M = (no. of moles of KCl)/(volume of the solution (L))</em>

<em></em>

∵ no. of moles of KCl = (mass of KCl)/(molar mass of KCl)

∴ M = [(mass of KCl)/(molar mass of KCl)]/(volume of the solution (L))

∴ (mass of KCl)/(volume of the solution (L)) = (M)*(molar mass of KCl) = (0.5 M)*(74.5 g/mol) = 37.25 g/L.

<em>So, the grams/L of KCl = 37.25 grams/L.</em>

Solve 4x-8x=-3 I need help
koban [17]

4x − 8x= −3

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

4x−8x = −3

4x + −8x= −3

(4x + −8x) = −3 (Combine Like Terms)

−4x = −3

Step 2: Divide both sides by -4.

−4x / −4  

−3 - / −4

so your answer will be x=  3/4 .
