What is the half-life of sodium-24? EXPLAIN how you determined your answer.

Chemistry
1 answer:
liraira [26]3 years ago

Half-life is basically how long it takes for a radioactive molecule to get to 1/2 of its original mass.

so if sodium 24 mass was 5g and it's half life was 24years then:

after every 24years 1/2 of 5g would have decayed. so in 48years there will only be 2.5g left.

Sulfuric acid in water dissociates completely into H+ and HSO4− ions. The HSO4− ion dissociates to a limited extent into H+ and
erastova [34]

Answer:

0.0010m SO₄²⁻

Explanation:

The freezing point depression due the addition of a solute into a pure solvent follows the equation:

ΔT = Kf×m×i (1)

<em>Where ΔT are °C that freezing point decreases (273.15K - 272.47K = 0.68K = 0.68°C). Kf is the constant of freezing point depression (1.86°C/m), m is molality of the solution (0.1778m) and i is Van't Hoff factor.</em>

Van't Hoff factor could be understood as  in how many one mole of the solute (sulfuric acid, H₂SO₄), is dissociated.

H₂SO₄ dissociates as follows:

H₂SO₄ → HSO₄⁻ + H⁺

HSO₄⁻ ⇄ SO₄²⁻ + H⁺

<em>Not all HSO₄⁻ dissociates.</em>

1 Mole of H₂SO₄ dissociates in 1 mole of H⁺+ 1 mole of HSO₄⁻ + X moles of   SO₄²⁻= 2 + X

Replacing in (1):

0.68°C = 1.86°C/m×0.1778m×i

2.056 = i

Moles of SO₄²⁻ are 2.056 - 2 = 0.056moles SO₄²⁻.

If 1 mole has a concentration of 0.1778m, 0.056moles are:

0.056moles ₓ (0.1778m / 1mole) =

What attractive force pulls electrons toward protons to form chemical bonds?
ehidna [41]

Answer:

C). Electronegativity.

Explanation:

'Electronegativity' is described as the tendency or a measure of the ability of an atom or molecule to attract electrons that leads to the formation of chemical bonds. It is denoted by 'χ', a Greek letter. The elements like Fluorine having a very high rate of electronegativity, its atom would attract the electrons more strongly while the elements with lesser electronegativity like Cesium would possess a lesser tendency to attract electrons towards it in order to form a bond. Thus, <u>option C</u> is the correct answer.

What is the empirical formula of ascorbic acid (Vitamin C). If Carbon is 40.91%, Hydrogen is 4.5% and Oxygen is 54.50%. Show you
kkurt [141]

Answer:

In 100 g of ascorbic acid, we will have 40.92 g C, 4.58 g H, and 54.50 g O. The whole-number ratio gives us the subscripts for the empirical formula. Thus, the empirical formula is C3H4O3.

Explanation:

When given % composition, and asked for the empirical formula, it is easiest to just assume 100 g of material. Thus,

Mass C = 40.92 g.  Moles C = 40.92 g x 1 mole/12 g = 3.41 moles C

Mass H = 4.58 g.  Moles H = 4.58 g x 1 mole/1.0 g = 4.58 moles H

Mass O = 54.50 g.  Moles O = 54.50 g x 1 mole/16 g = 3.41 moles O

Next, we want to get the moles into whole numbers, so we begin by dividing all by the smallest, i.e. divide all by 3.41.

Moles C = 3.41/3.41 = 1

Moles H = 4.58/3.41 = 1.34

Moles O = 3.41/3.41 = 1

Now, in order to get 1.34 to be a whole number we multiply it (and all others) by 3

Moles C = 1x3 = 3

Moles H = 1.34x3 = 4

Moles O = 1x3 = 3

Empirical Formula = C3H4O3
