Choose the FALSE statement.

Chemistry

Answer:

C. The half-life of C-14 is about 40,000 years.

Explanation:

The only false statement from the options is that the half-life of C-14 is 40,000yrs.

The half-life of an isotope is the time it takes for half of a radioactive material to decay to half of its original amount. C-14 has an half-life of 5730yrs. This implies that during every 5730yrs, C-14 will reduce to half of its initial amount.

  • All living organisms contain both stable C-12 and the unstable isotope of C-14
  • The lower the C-14 compared to the C-12 ratio in an organism, the older it is.

sergey [27]

Answer:

0.0277 M.

Explanation:

The integral rate law of a first order reaction:

<em>Kt = ln ([A₀]/[A]),</em>

where, k is the rate constant of the reaction <em>(k = 3.36 × 10⁻⁵ s⁻¹)</em>,

t is the time of the reaction <em>(t = 235.0 min = 14100 s)</em>,

[A₀] is the initial concentration of cyclopropane <em>([A₀] = 0.0445 M)</em>

<em>∵ Kt = ln ([A₀]/[A]),</em>

∴ (3.36 × 10⁻⁵ s⁻¹)(14100 s) = ln (0.0445 M)/[A]

Taking the exponential of both sides:

1.6 = (0.0445 M)/[A]

<em>∴ [A] = (0.0445 M)/1.6 = 0.0277 M.</em>

How many moles of N2O5 are needed<br> to produce 7.90 g of NO2?
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

0.085 moles of  N₂O₅ are needed

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of NO₂ produces = 7.90 g

Moles of N₂O₅ needed = ?

Solution:

2N₂O₅       →     4NO₂  + O₂

Number of moles of NO₂ produced :

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 7.90 g/ 46 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.17 mol

now we will compare the moles of NO₂   with N₂O₅.

                NO₂          :       N₂O₅

                  4            :          2

                0.17          :         2/4×0.17 = 0.085 mol

Thus, 0.085 moles of  N₂O₅ are needed.

If, in a peptide chain, there were 85 amino acids each joined by peptide bonds, how many n-terminus groups would be present?
Crank
If, in a peptide chain, there were 85 amino acids each joined by peptide bonds, there would only be 1 N-terminus group that would be present. The N-terminus group is always the start of the chain of a amino acid chain or a protein or a polypeptide. It refers to the free amine group present that is located at the end part of the chain. So, that no matter how many amino acids in a chain there would always be only one N-terminus group.
