When a large fissile atomic nucleus such as uranium-235 or plutonium-239 absorbs a neutron, it may undergo nuclear fission. The heavy nucleus splits into two or more lighter nuclei, (the fission products), releasing kinetic energy, gamma radiation, and freeneutrons

EXPERIMENT: THE CABBAGE INDICATOR
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

EXPERIMENT: THE CABBAGE INDICATOR

Here are your goals for this lesson:

Use indicator for each substance to determine if substance is an acid or a base

Summarize results and the experimental method

You can use the natural indicator in red cabbage juice to determine which household liquids are acids or bases. If no change in the color of the cabbage juice takes place, the liquid is neither an acid nor base; it is neutral.

Acids and bases are opposites. When an acids and base are mixed, they neutralize each other. You can use an indicator to see the neutralized reaction. The cabbage juice will change color when the liquids are neutralized.

Online Lab

This video will demonstrate how an indicator, in this case, cabbage indicator, can be used to determine whether a solution is acidic or basic. As you watch the video, remember to record your data and observations to use to present your findings.

Compile a summary of your findings from this experiment. Include your hypothesis, observations, data, and conclusions. Be sure to answer the questions below as well as explaining the method and results.

the concentration of the radio active isotope potassium-40 in a rock sample is found to be 6.25%. what is the age of the rock
julsineya [31]

Answer:

5.0 x 10⁹ years.

Explanation:

  • It is known that the decay of a radioactive isotope isotope obeys first order kinetics.
  • Half-life time is the time needed for the reactants to be in its half concentration.
  • If reactant has initial concentration [A₀], after half-life time its concentration will be ([A₀]/2).
  • Also, it is clear that in first order decay the half-life time is independent of the initial concentration.
  • The half-life of K-40 = 1.251 × 10⁹ years.

  • For, first order reactions:

<em>k = ln(2)/(t1/2) = 0.693/(t1/2).</em>

Where, k is the rate constant of the reaction.

t1/2 is the half-life of the reaction.

∴ k =0.693/(t1/2) = 0.693/(1.251 × 10⁹ years) = 5.54 x 10⁻¹⁰ year⁻¹.

  • Also, we have the integral law of first order reaction:

<em>kt = ln([A₀]/[A]),</em>

where, k is the rate constant of the reaction (k = 5.54 x 10⁻¹⁰ year⁻¹).

t is the time of the reaction (t = ??? year).

[A₀] is the initial concentration of (K-40) ([A₀] = 100%).

[A] is the remaining concentration of (K-40) ([A] = 6.25%).

∴ (5.54 x 10⁻¹⁰ year⁻¹)(t) = ln((100%)/( 6.25%))

∴ (5.54 x 10⁻¹⁰ year⁻¹)(t) = 2.77.

∴ t = 2.77/(5.54 x 10⁻¹⁰ year⁻¹) = 5.0 x 10⁹ years.

A price support is a type of _____. price fixing price floor rent control price ceiling
Oksi-84 [34.3K]
Subsidy

A price support is a type of subsidy. It seems that this is not given in the choices. However, subsidy is a form of monetary or financial support which is provided by a local or state sector. It aims to provide economic and social stability and development. Hence, subsidy encompasses various types of support funded by either government or non-government offices. It can be given in form of either direct (money, incentives and etc.) or indirect (insurance, write-offs and etc.) in procedures.
