Answer:

After 1326s, the concentration of pyruvic acid fall to 1/64 of its initial concentration.

Explanation:

The first order kinetics reaction is:

ln [A] = ln [A]₀ - kt

<em>Where [A] is concentration after t time, [A]₀ is intial concentration and k is reaction constant.</em>

To convert half-life to k you must use:

t(1/2) = ln 2 / K

221s = ln 2 / K

K = ln 2 / 221s

<h3>K = 3.1364x10⁻³s⁻¹</h3>

If [A] = 1/64, [A]₀ = 1:

ln [A] = ln [A]₀ - kt

ln (1/64) = ln 1 - 3.1364x10⁻³t

4.1588 = 3.1364x10⁻³s⁻¹t

1326s = t

<h3>After 1326s, the concentration of pyruvic acid fall to 1/64 of its initial concentration.</h3>

Select the compounds from the list below which are insoluble in water
natulia [17]

Answer:

Insoluble in water:

  • BaSO4
  • PbCl2
  • Cu2O
  • AgBr

Explanation:

Water turns out to be a good solvent for ionic substances, or in general, polarized covalent substances. On the other hand, it is not a good solvent for non-polar substances, these being the vast majority of covalent substances.

Solvent is more than a solute. Like salt water. Water is the solvent and salt will be the solute
