A 100g sample of Carbon-14 has a half-life of 5 years. How much Carbon-14 is left after 10 years?

Chemistry

Answer: The amount of carbon-14 left after 10 years is 25 g

Explanation:

Formula used :

a=\frac{a_o}{2^n}

where,

a = amount of reactant left after n-half lives = ?

a_o = Initial amount of the reactant = 100 g

n = number of half lives =\frac{\text {given time}}{\text {half life}}=\frac{10}{5}=2

Putting values in above equation, we get:

a=\frac{100g}{2^2}

a=\frac{100g}{4}=25g

Therefore, the amount of carbon-14 left after 10 years is 25 g

1. What amount of ammonia (in moles) is produced by the reaction of 4.00 mol H2 with 3.00 mol Nz?
ArbitrLikvidat [17]
<h2>Answer:  6 moles</h2>

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

3 H₂    +    N₂   →   2 NH₃

   ↓            ↓

4 mol       3 mol

Since the moles of N₂ is the smaller of the two reactants, then N₂ is the limiting factor (the reactant that will decide how much ammonia is produced since it has the smaller amount of moles). ∴ we have to use it in calculating the number of moles of ammonia

The mole ratio of N₂ to NH₃ based on the balanced equation is 1 to 2.

∴ the moles of NH₃ = moles of N₂ × 2

                                =  3 moles × 2

                                = 6 moles
