Answer:

B)Lower the temperature of the reaction to 250 K.

Explanation:

Option B is correct. Lowering the temperature will decrease the kinetic energy of the gas molecules decreasing the frequency of collision and the rate of the reaction.

Option A is incorrect. Increasing the moles or the number of gas molecules of A and B will bring the gas molecules closer to each other, thus increasing the frequency of collision and the rate of the reaction.  

Option C is incorrect. Compressing the gas into a small volume will bring the gas molecules closer to each other, thus increasing the frequency of collision and the rate of the reaction.  

Option D is incorrect. A catalyst works by lowering the activation energy and thus increasing the frequency and orientation of the collision between gas molecules and thus increasing the rate of the reaction.

Choice B I think, because if the temperature decreases the particles move slower due to less kinetic energy, and thus won't collide as frequently.

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.
