After first half-life you will have 100/2=50g. After second half-life you will have 50/2=25g.

25 grams. 

A half life is the amount of time it takes for an isotope to decay half of itself. 

So after one half life, there will be half of the original amount. 

100/2=50

After another half life, there will be half of that amount. 

50/2 = 25

Determine the [H3O+] in a 0.265 M HClO solution. The Ka of HClO is 2.9 × 10-8.
dexar [7]

8.8 × 10-5 M is the  [H3O+] concentration in 0.265 M HClO solution.

Explanation:

HClO is a weak acid and does not completely dissociate in water as ions.

the equation of dissociation can be written and ice table to be formed.

 HClO +H2O ⇒ ClO- + H3O+

I  0.265                0        0

C  -x                    +x     +x

E  0.265-x          +x      +x

Now applying the equation of Ka, where Ka is given as 2.9 × 10-8.

Ka = \frac{[ClO-][H3O+]}{[HClO]}

2.9 × 10^-8 = \frac{[x] [x]}{[0.265-x]}

x^{2} = 7.698 x10^{-9}

x = 8.8 × 10-5 M

The hydronium ion concentration is 8.8 × 10-5 M  in 0.265 M solution of HClO.

Write the chemical reactions for a weak acid and a strong acid.
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

Weak acid and base solutions contain multiple charged and uncharged species in dynamic equilibrium. Strong acids and strong bases refer to species that completely dissociate to form ions in solution.

Why must the spot applied to a TLC plate be above the level of the developing solvent? What problem will ensue if the level of t
algol13

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

If the spot in TLC is below the solvent front, it will be observed that the spot, instead of being separated by the solvent as expected, will just dissolve away in the solvent and zero actual separation of the mixture is achieved.

If the solute is dissolved away instead of being separated by the solvent, then the experiment fails because no actual separation of the mixture is achieved.

Hence, in TLC, the spot must be applied above the solvent front so that the capillary movement of the solvent through the plate can lead to the eventual separation of the components of the mixture since the various components of the mixture will travel at different speeds through the plate.

Also, if the solvent is above the spot, the solvent may evaporate selectively from the points above the spot while separation is ongoing.
