Nitrogen has a half life of 10 days. If you have a 75 gram sample how much is remaining after 20 days ?

There is 9.375 g of nitrogen. This is because when a half-life passes, the mass becomes 2 times less. Since two half-lives have passed, you need to divide by 4.

How do you balance this Chemical Equation? C5H12O + O2 = CO2 + H2O

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

The chemical equation by putting, a 2 on C₅H₁₂O, 15 on O₂, 10 on CO₂ , and 12 on H₂O in the equation;

2C₅H₁₂O + 15O₂ → 10CO₂ + 12H₂O

Explanation:

Chemical equations are balanced by putting coefficients on the reactants and products to ensure the total number of atoms on the left side equal to those on the right side.
Balancing chemical equations is done to make chemical equations obey the law of conservation of mass.
According to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of the reactants should always be equal to the mass of products.
This is done by balancing chemical equations to ensure the total number of atoms on the left side is equal to that on the right side.

Therefore, the balanced equation is;

2C₅H₁₂O + 15O₂ → 10CO₂ + 12H₂O

What determines the strength of the attraction between molecules?

alexandr402 [8]

To determine strength of attractive forces between the molecules the size of the molecules, their polarity (dipole moment), and their shape. ... If two molecules have about the same size and similar shape, the dipole-dipole intermolecular attractive force increases with increasing polarity.

When a solution containing 1.4000 g of Ba(NO3)2 and 2.4000 g of HSO3NH2 is boiled, a precipitate forms. One possible identity fo

Georgia [21]

Answer:

See explanation for detailed solution

Explanation:

The balanced reaction equation is Ba(NO3)2 + 2HSO3NH2 → Ba(SO3NH2)2 + 2HNO3

Number of moles of Ba(NO3)2 = 1.4 g/ 261.337 g/mol = 5.36 × 10^-3 moles

From the reaction equation;

1 mole of Ba(NO3)2 yields 1 mole of Ba(SO3NH2)2

5.36 × 10^-3 moles of Ba(NO3)2 yields 5.36 × 10^-3 moles of Ba(SO3NH2)2

For HSO3NH2

Number of moles = 2.4g/97.10 g/mol =0.0247 moles

2 moles of HSO3NH2 yields 1 mole of Ba(SO3NH2)2

0.0247 moles of HSO3NH2 yields 0.0247 ×1/2 = 0.0137 moles

Hence, Ba(NO3)2 is the limiting reactant

The theoretical yield of Ba(SO3NH2)2 is 5.36 × 10^-3 moles × 329.4986 g/mol = 1.766 g

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Molar mass = mass/ number of moles

Molar mass = 1.6925 g/5.36 × 10^-3 moles = 315.76 g

The cis and trans geometric isomers of a compound have different chemical and physical properties. Draw the structure of the geo

frutty [35]

Answer: The structure of the geometrical isomers are attached below.

Explanation:

Cis- and Trans- isomers are the geometrical isomers which have same chemical formula but different structural formula

According to CIP rule, the groups on the doubly bonded carbon atoms are given priorities based on the the atomic masses of first connected atom.

If the highest priority groups are on the same side, it is known as cis-form and if the highest priority groups are on opposite side, it is known as trans-form.

We are given a chemical compound, which is 2-pentene.

In this the highest priority groups are methyl and ethyl groups.

When the groups are on the same side, it forms cis-form and when the groups are on the opposite side, it forms trans-form

The structure of the geometrical isomers are attached below.
