Chemistry
1 answer:
Ksju [112]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

After 2 half-lives there will be 25% of the original isotope, and 75% of the decay product. After 3 half-lives there will be 12.5% of the original isotope, and 87.5% of the decay product. After 4 half-lives there will be 6.25% of the original isotope, and 93.75% of the decay product.

What is the Bronsted acid of H2PO4- + OH-. ---- HPO42- + H2O?​
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

The bronsted- Lowry acid is H₂PO₄⁻

Explanation:

Bronsted-Lowry acid  donates a proton (H⁺)

H₂PO₄⁻ + OH⁻ → HPO₄²⁻ + H₂O

In the reaction above, H₂PO₄⁻ is donating the proton to OH⁻ resulting in H₂O and the deprotonated species. This makes it a bronsted-Lowry acid.

The reaction 2a + b --&gt; c + d has an activation energy of 80.0 kj/mol. at 320°c, the rate constant k = 1.80 x 10-2 l mol-1 s-
Naddik [55]
To determine the k for the second condition, we use the Arrhenius equation which relates the rates of reaction at different temperatures. We do as follows:

ln k1/k2 = E / R (1/T2 - 1/T1) where E is the activation energy and R universal gas constant.

ln 1.80x10^-2 / k2 = 80000 / 8.314 ( 1/723.15 - 1/593.15)

k2 = 0.3325 L / mol-s

CaCO3 → CaO + CO2 Calculate the theoretical yield of Calcium Oxide if 24.8 grams of Calcium Carbonate decomposes. Calculate the
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

Theoretical yield: 13.9 g

Percent yield: 94 %

Explanation:

The reaction is:

CaCO₃ → CaO + CO₂

We see that the reaction is correctly balanced.

1 mol of calcium carbonate can decompose to 1 mol of calcium oxide and 1 mol of carbon dioxide.

We convert the mass to moles: 24.8 g . 1mol / 100.08g = 0.248 moles

As ratio is 1:1, 0.248 moles of salt can decompose to 1 mol of oxide.

We convert the moles to mass: 0.248 mol . 56.08g /1mol = 13.9 g

That's the theoretical yield.

To determine the percent yield we think:

(Determined yield / Theoretical yield) . 100 → (13.1 / 13.9) . 100 = 94 %
