<u>Answer: </u>The equation which is wrong is
<u>Explanation:</u>
For the given reaction:
The expression for is given by:
The concentration of solids are taken to be 1, only concentration of gases and liquid states are taken. The pressure of only gases are taken.
Relationship between is given by the expression:
where,
= number of moles of gaseous products - number of moles of gaseous reactants
R = gas constant
T= temperature
For the above reaction,
= number of moles of gaseous products - number of moles of gaseous reactants = 0 - 3 = -3
Hence, the expression for is:
Therefore, the equation which is wrong is
Half-life is defined as the amount of time it takes a given quantity to decrease to half of its initial value. The equation to describe the decay is
Nt=N0(1/2)
where N0 is the initial quantity, Nt is the remaining quantity after time t, t1/2 is the half-time. So work out the equation, t1/2 = t (-ln2)/ln(Nt/N0) = 11.5*(-ln2)/ln(12.5/100) = 3.83 days
Nt=N0(1/2)
