Answer:
The interaction between sodium ion and the partial negative charge on the oxygen is stronger.
Explanation:
The predominant interaction that exists between sodium ion and the partial negative charge on the oxygen is ion-dipole interaction.
The predominant interaction that exists between two ethanol molecules is hydrogen bonding interaction.
The order of strength of the intermolecular interactions in decreasing order:
Ionic bond > ion-dipole interaction > hydrogen bonding > dipole-dipole interaction > ion-induced dipole interaction > induced dipole- dipole interaction > london force
So, ion-dipole interaction is stronger than hydrogen bonding.
Hence, the interaction between sodium ion and the partial negative charge on the oxygen is stronger.
Answer:
Explanation:
In weight/volume (w/v) terms,
1 ppm = 1g m-3 = 1 mg L-1 = 1 μg mL-1
200 mL = 0.2 L
15 / 0.2 mg L-1 =75 ppm
Radioactive material obeys 1st order decay kinetics,
For 1st order reaction, we have
k =

where, k = rate constant of reaction
Given: Initial conc. 100, Final conc. = 6.25, t = 18.9 hours
∴ k =

= 0.1467 hours^(-1)
Now, for 1st order reactions: half life =

= 4.723 hours.
