Answer:
2.03 moles of Gold
Explanation:
Gold is one of the most precious metal metal used in many applications and mainly as a jewellery. In terms of purity it is categorized in Karats. 24 Karat is considered the purest Gold (i.e. 100 % Gold) while other Karats (14, 18, 22 e.t.c) are alloys with other metals and gyms.
Data Given:
Mass of Gold = 400 g
A.Mass of Gold = 196.97 g.mol⁻¹
Calculate Moles of Gold as,
Moles = Mass ÷ M.Mass
Putting values,
Moles = 400 g ÷ 196.97 g.mol⁻¹
Moles = 2.03 moles of Gold
Answer:
Explanation:
Let the number of half lives be x
<u>Solve this equation to find the value of x:</u>
- 125*(1/2)ˣ = 3.90625
- (0.5)ˣ = 3.90625 / 125
- (0.5)ˣ = 0.03125
- log (0.5)ˣ = log 0.03125
- x = log 0.03125 / log 0.5
- x = 5
