If nitrogen-13 has a half life of 2.5 years, how much remains from a 100g sample after 7.5 years

Chemistry

Sonbull [250]3 years ago

Answer:

12.50g

Explanation:

T½ = 2.5years

No = 100g

N = ?

Time (T) = 7.5 years

To solve this question, we'll have to find the disintegration constant λ first

T½ = In2 / λ

T½ = 0.693 / λ

λ = 0.693 / 2.5

λ = 0.2772

In(N/No) = -λt

N = No* e^-λt

N = 100 * e^-(0.2772*7.5)

N = 100*e^-2.079

N = 100 * 0.125

N = 12.50g

The sample remaining after 7.5 years is 12.50g

S + 02<br> C + 02<br> Cu0 + H2SO4
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

S + 02= S0 - 4 e- → SIV (oxidation); 2 O0 + 4 e- → 2 O-II (reduction)

C + 02= C

Cu0 + H2SO4= CuO + H2SO4 → CuSO4 + H2O
