Use the formula in terms of half life from the normal exponential functions 
<span>
N(t) = N(0) (1/2) ^ (t/thalf) </span>
<span>
N(0) is the original quantity </span>
<span>
N(t) = quantity remaining at time t </span>
<span>
t is the time </span>
<span>

thalf is half life </span>
<span>
1/16 = (1/2)^(t/3.82) </span>
<span>
16 = 2^(t/3.82) </span>
<span>
4 = t/3.82 </span>
<span>
t = 15.28 days

An ionic bond occurs between what particles
kakasveta [241]
<span>The correct answer is that an ionic bond forms between charged particles. To form this bond, the particles transfer valence electrons (those in the outermost orbit). Specifically, in ionic bonding, the metal atom loses its electrons (thus becoming positive) and the nonmetal atom gains electrons (thus becoming negative).</span>

It takes 60 mL of 0.20 M of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) to neutralize 25 mL of carbonic acid (H2CO3) for the following chemical reac
irina1246 [14]

If It takes 60mL of 0.20M of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) to neutralize 25 mL of carbonic acid (H_2CO_3), then the concentration of the carbonic acid is 0.24M

The reaction between NaOH solution and H_2CO_3 is written below

2NaOH + H_2CO_3 \rightarrow Na_2CO_3 + 2H_2O

Volume of NaOH, V_B = 60 ml

Volume of H_2CO_3, V_A=25 ml

Molarity of H_2CO_3, C_A=?

Molarity of NaOH, C_B=0.20M

Number of moles of H_2CO_3, n_A=1

Number of moles of NaOH, n_B=2

The mathematical equation for neutralization reaction is:

\frac{C_AV_A}{C_BV_B} =\frac{n_A}{n_B}

Substitute  C_B=0.2 M,  n_A=1,  n_B=2,  V_B = 60ml, and  V_A=25 ml into the equation above in order to solve for C_A

\frac{C_A \times 25}{0.2 \times 60}=\frac{1}{2}  \\\\50C_A=12\\\\C_B=\frac{12}{50} \\\\C_B=0.24M

Therefore, the concentration of the carbonic acid is 0.24M
