2. Mercury (II) oxide decomposes into mercury and oxygen gas according to the following

Biology
1 answer:

7 0

Answer:

7.8 moles are needed.

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of oxygen produced = 125 g

Number of moles of mercury oxide needed = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation;

2HgO → 2Hg + O₂

Number of moles of oxygen:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 125 g/ 32 g/mol

Number of moles = 3.9 mol

Now we will compare the moles of oxygen with mercury oxide.

                       O₂         :         HgO

                        1           :             2

                     3.9          :              2×3.9 = 7.8 mol

Determine whether a nail would be chiral or achiral.
weeeeeb [17]

A nail may be considered as an achiral object because it can be superimposed when it is faced in a mirror image where in it may look exactly the same rather than chiral when they are in a mirror image, it wouldn’t be superimposable.

A geologist is studying two different rhyolite flows to determine if they were erupted at the same time.
ss7ja [257]
Q1. The answer is 1.

It can be calculated using the equation:

 (1/2)ⁿ = x

x - decimal amount remaining, 

n - a number of half-lives.


x = 50% = 50/100 = 0.5

n = ?

(1/2)ⁿ = 0.5

log((1/2)ⁿ) = log(0.5)

n * log(1/2) = log(0.5)

n * log(0.5) = log(0.5)

n = log(0.5)/log(0.5)

n = 1


Q10. The answer is 2.


It can be calculated using the equation:

 (1/2)ⁿ = x

x - decimal amount remaining, 

n - a number of half-lives.


Rhyolite #2 has 25% of the parent H remaining:

x = 25% = 25/100 = 0.25

n = ?

(1/2)ⁿ = 0.25

log((1/2)ⁿ) = log(0.25)

n * log(1/2) = log(0.25)

n * log(0.5) = log(0.25)

n = log(0.25)/log(0.5)

n = -0.602 / - 0.301

n = 2



Q3. The answer is 100 million years.


A number of half-lives (n) is a quotient of total time elapsed (t) and length of half-life (H):

n = t/H

n = 1

t = ?

H = 100 000 000 years


n = t/H

t = n * H

t = 1 * 100 000 000 years

t = 100 000 000 years<span>
