The amount of sample that is left after a certain period of time, given the half-life, h, can be calculated through the equation.

             A(t) = A(o) (1/2)^(t/d)

where t is the certain period of time. Substituting the known values,

             A(t) = (20 mg)(1/2)^(85.80/14.30)

Solving,

           A(t) = 0.3125 mg

Hence, the answer is 0.3125 mg.

Which alkane would have a higher boiling point?a)ethaneb)pentanec)heptane
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is option c.

Explanation:

Alkanes with higher molecular mass has higher boiling point.

Thisis because when the molar mass of the alkanes increases the the surface area  increases with which van der Waals forces between the molecules of alkane also increase which increases the association of the molecules of with each other which results in increase in boiling point is observed.

The increasing order of the molar mass of the given alkanes;

C_2H_6

So out of ethane, pentane and heptane . Heptane has highest molecular mass with higher boiling point value. Where as ethane have the lowest value of boiling point.

A student attempts to separate 4.656 g of a sand/salt mixture just like you did in this lab. After carrying out the experiment,
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) Total mixture = 4.656 g

Sand recovered = 2.775 g

percent composition of sand in the mixture

= (2.775 g / 4.656 g ) x 100

= 59.6 % .

b )

Total of sand and salt recovered = 2.775 g + .852 g = 3.627 g .

Total mixture = 4.656 g

percent recovery = (3.627 / 4.656 ) x 100

= 77.9 % .
