Choose the FALSE statement.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Mariana [72]3 years ago
5 0

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.

How many Fe atoms and how many moles of Fe atoms are in 500.g of iron?
ser-zykov [4K]
MFe: 56 g/mol
..........

56g ----- 1 mol
5g ------- X
X = 5/56 = 0,089 moles of Fe

56g ----- 6,02×10²³ atoms
5g ------- X
X = (5×6,02×10²³)/56
X = 0,5375×10²³ = 5,375×10²² atoms of Fe

How much silver is produced is 15.00 grams of cu is added to the solution of excess silver nitrate?
il63 [147K]
First write out the balanced equation. 3Cu+2Ag(NO3)3=2Ag+3Cu(NO3)2
Then convert copper from grams to moles
15 g*1 mol cu/63.54 g= 15/63.54 mol cu
Then use the mole ratio to convert Moles Cu to Moles Ag
15/63.54 moles Cu* 2 moles Ag/3 moles Cu
The final awnser is (15*2)/(63.54*3) moles Ag =0.157 moles Ag. If the question wants the answer in grams, convert from moles Ag to grams Ag.
0.157 moles Ag*107.87 g Ag/ mol Ag=16.98 g Ag

does the nitro group on the pyridine ring make the ring more electron rich or more electron deficient
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

more electron deficient

Explanation:

The nitro group is an electron withdrawing group. It withdraws electrons from the pyridine ring by resonance.

This electron withdrawal by resonance makes the pyridine ring less electron rich or more electron deficient.

Hence, the nitro group makes the pyrinde ring more electron deficient
