The Earth’s atmosphere contains about 0.04% (or 400 parts per million) carbon dioxide. Although most of the carbon dioxide is in

the form 12CO2, which is not radioactive, a specific fraction of the total is made up of radioactive 14CO2.

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Yes the given statement is true

Most of the carbon dioxide preset in the atmosphere is C12 isotope and a very small fraction of The atmosphere is made up by C14 isotope which is radioactive in nature

C14 makes about 1 to 1.5 atoms per 10^{12} atoms of carbon in the atmosphere.

A 5 mole sample of liquid acetone is converted to a gas at 75.0°C. If 628 J are required to raise the temperature of the liquid
velikii [3]
The total energy required for this conversion is equivalent to the sum of the energies that are used. There are three steps:

1) Heating of liquid acetone
This used 628 J

2) Evaporation of acetone
This used 15.6 kJ or 15,600 J

3) Heating of acetone vapors
This used 712 J

Adding these quantities,

Total energy = 628 + 15,600 + 712

The total energy required was <span>16940 Joules of 16.94 kJ</span>

Hno3, a strong acid, is added to shift the ag2co3 equilibrium (equation 7.6) to the right. explain why the shift occurs.
Deffense [45]
Answer 1)  When a strong acid like HNO_{3} reacts with Ag_{2} CO_{3} usually the equilibrium shifts to the right because

As per the Le chatelier's principle "if in any reaction, a dynamic equilibrium is disturbed by changing the any of the conditions, the position of equilibrium moves to counteract the change."  So, in the given reaction when HNO_{3} reacts with Ag_{2} CO_{3}  it generates carbon dioxide and water as a by product, if we are adding HNO_{3} it will remove some of the CO_{3} molecule from the reaction mixture, which then tends to shift the equilibrium towards right.

Answer 2) The same would be observed in this case, if we replace HNO_{3} with HCl it will shift the equilibrium to the right as their will be generation of AgCl as the precipitate.

As per the definition of Le Chatelier's principle if we add reactants in the reaction the equilibrium will tend to move towards right, also if we replace the products or remove it then too it will shift the equilibrium towards right. So, in this reaction you are removing Ag^{+} and Cl^{-} ions from the solution.
