Answer:

( °F − 32) × 5/9 =  °C

Explanation:

Also there is a mental calculation to convert from Fahrenheit to Celsius. The ratio 5/9 is approximately equal 0.55555….

Subtract 32º to adapt the equivalent in the Fahrenheit scale.

Divide the degrees Celsius by 2 (multiply by 0.5).

Take 1/10 of this number (0.5 * 1/10 = 0.05) and add it to the number obtained previously.

Example: Convert 98.6º F to Centigrade.

98.6 - 32 = 66.6

66.6 * 1/2 = 33.3

33.3 * 1/10 = 3.3

33.3 + 3.3 = 36.6 which is an approximation in degrees Centigrade

What is the half-life of a pharmaceutical if the initial dose is 500 mg and only 31 mg remains after 6 hours?
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{b. 1.5 h}}

Explanation:

1. Calculate the rate constant

The integrated rate law for first order decay is

\ln \left (\dfrac{A_{0}}{A_{t}}\right ) = kt

where

A₀ and A_t are the amounts at t = 0 and t

k is the rate constant

\begin{array}{rcl}\ln \left (\dfrac{500}{31}\right) & = & k \times 6\\\\\ln 16.1 & = & 6k\\2.78& =& 6k\\k & = & \dfrac{2.78}{6}\\\\& = & 0.463 \text{ h}^{-1}\\\end{array}

2. Calculate the half-life

t_{\frac{1}{2}} = \dfrac{\ln2}{k} = \dfrac{\ln2}{\text{0.463  h}^{-1}} = \textbf{1.5 h}\\\\ \text{The half-life is $\large \boxed{\textbf{1.5 h}}$}

You have 2.7 moles of carbon. How many atoms do you have?
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

1.63 × 10²⁴ atoms.

Explanation:

To calculate the number of atoms (N) contained in 2.7moles of carbon, we multiply the number of moles (n) by Avogadro's number (6.02 × 10²³).

That is, N = n × nA

Where;

N = number of atoms

n = number of moles (mol)

nA = Avogadro's numbe

N = 2.7 × 6.02 × 10²³

N = 16.254 × 10²³

N = 1.63 × 10²⁴ atoms.

Hence, there are 1.63 × 10²⁴ atoms in 2.7moles of Carbon.

HELP PLSSSSS!!

Answer:

68133080.02 g

Explanation:

I believe that the question is to find the mass of air in the room and not the molar mass of air since the molar mass of air was already given in the question as 28.97 g/mol.

Now, if 1 mole of a gas occupies 22.4 L

x moles of air occupies 52,681,428.8 Liters

x = 1 * 52,681,428.8 /22.4

x = 2351849.5 moles of air

Now, number of moles = mass/ molar mass

but molar mass = 28.97 g/mol

2351849.5 = mass/28.97

mass = 2351849.5 * 28.97

mass = 68133080.02 g
