What is the half-life of A? What will the pressure, initially 32.1 kPa, at

Chemistry
1 answer:
kodGreya [7K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

a) 32.09 kPa

b) 32.09 kPa

Explanation:

Given data:

rate constant = 3.56\times 10^{-7} s^{-1}

initial pressure is = 32.1 kPa

half life of A is calculated as

t_{1/2} = \frac{ln 2}{k}

t_{1/2} = \frac{ln 2}{3.56\time 10^{-7}}

t_{1/2} = = 1.956 \times 10^6 s

for calculating pressure we have follwing expression

ln p = ln P_o - kt

P =P_o e^{-kt}

a) P = 32.1 e^{-3.56\times 10^{-7} \times 10} = 32.09 kPa

b) P = 32.1 e^{-3.56\times 10^{-7} \times 10\times 60} = 32.09 kPa

What is the product if an atom of Po-209<br> undergoes alpha decay?
g100num [7]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

Lead-205 (Pb-205)

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>We are given;</u>

  • An atom of Po-209

We are supposed to identify its product after an alpha decay;

  • Polonium-209 has a mass number of 209 and an atomic number of 84.
  • When an element undergoes an alpha decay, the mass number decreases by 4 while the atomic number decreases by 2.
  • Therefore, when Po-209 undergoes alpha decay it results to the formation of a product with a mass number of 205 and atomic number of 82.
  • The product from this decay is Pb-205, because Pb-205 has a mass number of 205 and atomic number 82.
  • The equation for the decay is;

²⁰⁹₈₄Po → ²⁰⁵₈₂Pb + ⁴₂He

  • Note; An alpha particle is represented by a helium nucleus, ⁴₂He.

What is the concentration in molarity of a solution that has 54.21g of calcium hydroxide dissolved in 560mL of water?
ra1l [238]
We know that Molarity = # mol/L

In the question, we are given grams - so we need to calculate the number of moles that we are dealing with. We can do this by first finding out what the molecular formula of calcium hydroxide is: Ca(OH)_{2

This means that we have 1 calcium and 2 hydroxides.

We can find the number of moles by taking the grams given divided by the molar mass of the molecule. We can find the molar mass of the molecule by taking each atomic mass of each atom (found on the periodic table) and adding them together:

Ca = 40.08g
O = 15.999g
H = 1.008g

We have 1 calcium, 2 oxygens, and 2 hydrogens. So let's add the atomic masses together:

40.08 + 2(15.999) + 2(1.008) = 74.094g

Now that we have the molar mass, we can find the number of moles due to already knowing the given amount in the question:

54.21g/74.09g = 0.73 moles of Ca(OH)_{2}

Now that we know the number of moles, we can solve for the molarity; The other part of the question gives us 560 mL of water - but this can quickly be converted to liters by moving the decimal to the left 3 places => 0.560 L

Knowing all of this information, we can plug it into the molarity equation:

Molarity = 0.73 mol/0.56 L
Molarity = 1.30

The molarity of the solution is 1.3 M.

An experiment produced 0.10 g CO2, with a volume of 0.056 L at STP. If the accepted density of CO2 at STP is 1.96 g/L, what is t
Pachacha [2.7K]
The density of CO2 getting from experiment is 0.1/0.056 = 1.79 g/L. The percent error of this is (1.96 -1.79)/1.96*100%=8.67%. So the approximate percent error is 8.67%.

Explain why world food shortages could be reduced by growing more algae.
Sonja [21]
One of the many awe-inspiring things about algae, Professor Greene explains, is that they can grow between ten and 100 times faster than land plants. In view of this speedy growth rate – combined with the fact they can thrive virtually anywhere in the right conditions – growing marine microalgae could provide a variety of solutions to some of the world’s most pressing problems.

Take, global warming. Algae sequesters CO2, as we have learned, but owing to the fact they grow faster than land plants, can cover wider areas and can be utilised in bioreactors, they can actually absorb CO2 more effectively than land plants. AI company Hypergiant Industries, for instance, say their algae bioreactor was 400 times more efficient at taking in CO2 than trees.

And it’s not just their nutritional credentials which could solve humanity’s looming food crisis, but how they are produced. Marine microalgae grow in seawater, which means they do not rely on arable land or freshwater, both of which are in limited supply. Professor Greene believes the use of these organisms could therefore release almost three million km2 of cropland for reforestation, and also conserve one fifth of global freshwater
