Answer:

is an aqueous reactant

is a liquid product

is a gaseous product

Explanation:

$H_2CO_3$ ⇔ $CO_2 + H_2O$

Hydrogen carbonate dissocates to form carbon dioxide and water. The acid (hydrogen carbonate) is in aqueous form and it dissociates to water (liquid) and carbon dioxide (a gas). It is also seen that the hydrogen carbonate is on the reactant side and it dissociates to produce water and carbon dioxide.

W $H_2CO_3$ is an aqueous reactant (a reactant undergoes changes in a chemical reaction

$H_2O$ is a liquid product (product refers to the species produced from chemical reaction)

$CO_2$ is a gaseous product

A fossil was analyzed and determined to have a carbon-14 level that is 70 % that of living organisms. The half-life of C-14 is 5

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer: 2948

Explanation:

Half life is the amount of time taken by a radioactive material to decay to half of its original value.

$t_{\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{0.693}{k}$

$k=\frac{0.69}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}=\frac{0.693}{5730}=1.21\times 10^{-4}years^{-1}$

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

$t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{a}{a-x}$

where,

k = rate constant = $1.21\times 10^{-4}years^{-1}$

t = age of sample = ?

a = let initial amount of the reactant = 100

a - x = amount left after decay process = $\frac{70}{100}\times 100=70$

$t=\frac{2.303}{1.21\times 10^{-4}}\log\frac{100}{70}$

$t=2948years$

Thus the fossil is 2948 years old.

Law of Conservation of Mass in terms of atoms

VARVARA [1.3K]

No atoms are lost or made during the chemical reaction so the total mass of the products is equal to the total mass of the reactants. In an atom, protons and neutrons contribute to the mass and since the number of them doesn’t change, the mass doesn’t either.
