The rate constant : k = 9.2 x 10⁻³ s⁻¹
The half life : t1/2 = 75.3 s
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
Reaction 45% complete in 65 s
Required
The rate constant and the half life
Solution
For first order ln[A]=−kt+ln[A]o
45% complete, 55% remains
A = 0.55
Ao = 1
Input the value :
ln A = -kt + ln Ao
ln 0.55 = -k.65 + ln 1
-0.598=-k.65
k = 9.2 x 10⁻³ s⁻¹
The half life :
t1/2 = (ln 2) / k
t1/2 = 0.693 : 9.2 x 10⁻³
t1/2 = 75.3 s
Answer: A)There is a high ratio of energy to cost
Positives:
A Chunk of Uranium can power a city a lot longer than a chunk of coal.
It also does not contribute to pollution since what comes out of the tower is steam.
Negatives:
It is very expensive to build and maintain a nuclear power plant at first so investors whom want money up front are more reluctant to loan money for one.
If the plant does melt down it is very bad for the enviroment and its people, for example Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in the Ukraine will not be able to be lived in for approximently 20,000 years.
Answer:
No they form nitrogen oxide which can be poisonous to some species but depending on the amount of nitrogen it can be harmful to everything living. Such as if you put it with a plant that had low nitrogen levels then there would be no carbon dioxide to filter.
