Radioactive decay is a pseudo-first order reaction. When you know the half-life of the material, you could use this equation.

A= A₀(1/2)^t/h
where 
A is the final activity
A₀ is the initial activity
t is the time
h is the half-life

A = (0.64)(1/2)^88/44 = <em>0.16 mbq</em>

What is the volume of 15.2 grams of SO2 at STP?
kiruha [24]

5.512 litres is the volume of  15.2 grams of sulphur dioxide gas at STP.

Explanation:

Data given:

mass of sulphur dioxide = 15.2 grams

conditions is at STP whech means volume = 22.4 litres

atomic mass of sulphur dioxide = 64.06 grams/mole

Number of moles is calculated as:

number of moles = \frac{mas}{atomic mass of 1 mole}

Putting the values in the equation:

number of moles = \frac{15.2}{64.06}

                              = 0.23 moles

Assuming that sulphur dioxide behaves as an ideal gas, we can calculate the volume as:

When 1 mole of sulphur dioxide occupies 22.4 litres at STP

Then 0.23 moles of sulphur dioxide occupies 22.4 x 0.23

= 5.152 litres is the volume.

Answer: C) a redox reaction that produces an electric current

Explanation:

Chemical cell is a device which is used for the conversion of the chemical energy produced in a redox reaction into the electrical energy. The cell consists of the negative terminal called as anode where oxidation takes place and a positive terminal called as cathode where reduction takes place.

Electrolytic cell is a device which is used to carry out chemical reactions by the use of electrical energy. The cell consists of the negative terminal called as cathode where reduction takes place and a positive terminal called as anode where oxidation takes place.

Given the chemical equation: 2 Pb + O2 → 2 PbO, if 51.8 grams of Pb are formed in this reaction, then 8.00 grams of O2 must have
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

If 51.8 of Pb is reacting, it will require 4.00 g of O2

If 51.8 g of PbO is formed, it will require 3.47 g of O2.

Explanation:

Equation of the reaction:

2 Pb + O2 → 2 PbO

From the equation of reaction, 2 moles of lead metal, Pb, reacts with 1 mole of oxygen gas, O2, to produce 2 moles of lead (ii) oxide, PbO

Molar mass of Pb = 207 g

Molar mass of O2 = 32 g

Molar mass of PbO = 207 + 32 = 239 g

Therefore 2 × 207 g of Pb reacts with 32 g of O2 to produce 2 × 239 g of PbO

= 414 g of Pb reacts with 32 g of O2 to produce 478 g of PbO

Therefore, formation of 51.8 g of PbO will require (32/478) × 51.8 of O2 = 3.47 g of O2.

If 51.8 of Pb is reacting, it will require (32/414) × 51.8 g of O2 = 4.00 g of O2

Why does nitric oxide (no) act as a paracrine signal that affects only neighboring cells?
VMariaS [17]

The correct answer is due to rapid conversion of nitrates into nirites in extracellular fluids.

Due to the fact that it is quickly transformed to nitrates and nitrites in the extracellular fluid, nitric oxide (NO) functions as a paracrine signal that only impacts nearby cells. Because it relaxes the smooth muscle cells in blood vessel walls, nitric oxide (NO) causes blood vessels to widen. Cell signaling is a type of cellular communication in which a cell produces a signal to cause changes in neighboring cells, changing the behavior of those cells. Paracrine signaling is one type of cell signaling. Responses to allergens, tissue repair, the development of scar tissue, and blood clotting are a few examples of paracrine signaling. The transmission of signals through synapses between nerve cells is known as paracrine signaling.
