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>

Starting with a vessel of temperature 50.1°C, a pressure of 6263.MmHg and volume 461.1mL, what is its final volume, in liters, i
il63 [147K]

Answer:

The value of final volume inside the vessel  V_{2} =  5.17 ml

Explanation:

Initial pressure P_{1} = 6263 mm Hg = 8.24 atm = 835 K pa

Initial temperature T_{1} = 50.1 ° c = 323.1 K

Initial volume V_{1} = 461.1 ml =  0.0004611 m^{3}

Final temperature T_{2} = - 95.8 ° c = 177.2 K

Finial pressure P_{2} = 411 atm = 41644.6 K PA

We know that

P_{1} \frac{V_{1} }{T_{1} }  = P_{2} \frac{V_{2} }{T_{2} }

Put all the values in the above equation

⇒ 835 × \frac{0.0004611}{323.1} = 41644.6 × \frac{V_{2} }{177.2}

⇒ V_{2} = 5.07 × 10^{-6} m^{3}

⇒ V_{2} =  5.17 ml

This is the value of final volume inside the vessel.
