The answer is remain the same.If the rock is cut, crushed, or heated, the length of the half life of the uranium would remain the same since these factors have no effect on half-life.Even though chemical changes were affected by temperature, the physical state, pressure, concentration, the chemical environment within the molecule, and any other changing factors, the half-life of a radioactive substance is independent of these influences.

(c) O2 gas is transferred from a 3 L vessel containing oxygen at 4 atm to an evacuated 20 L vessel at a constant temperature of
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

After the transfer the pressure inside the 20 L vessel is 0.6 atm.

Explanation:

Considering O2 as an ideal gas, it is at an initial state (1) with V1 = 3L and P1 = 4 atm. And a final state (2) with V2 = 20L. The temperature remain constant at all the process, thus here applies the Boyle-Mariotte law. This law establishes that at a constant temperature an ideal gas the relationship between pressure and volume remain constant at all time:

P x V = k

Therefore, for this problem the step by step explanation is:

P_{1} xV_{1} = P_{2} xV_{2}

Clearing P2 and replacing

P_{2}= \frac{P_{1} xV_{1}}{V_{2} } = \frac{4atmx3L}{20L} = 0.6atm

What is produced by a neutralization reaction between an arrhenius acid and an arrhenius base?
stepladder [879]

Answer: Salt and Water

Explanation:

An Arrhenius acid (HCl) can best be defined as any substance that when added to water increases the concentration of H+ ions.

While an Arrhenius base (KOH) is any substance that when added to water increases the concentration of OH- ions.

When an Arrhenius acid such as HCl reacts with an Arrhenius base such as KOH, the end products will be salt and water, in a process called Neutralization Reaction.

HCl (aq) + KOH (aq)  -------> KCl (aq) + H2O (l)

When 2 moles of Fe(s) react with Cl2(g) to form FeCl3(s) according to the following equation, 799 kJ of energy are evolved.
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

1. Exothermic.

2. -1598 kJ.

Explanation:

Hello!

1. In this case, according to the reaction, we can infer that 799 kJ of energy are evolved (given off, released) it means that the enthalpy of reaction is negative as the reactants have more energy than the products; which means this is an exothermic reaction.

2. Here, as we know that the enthalpy of reaction is -799 kJ/mol, we can compute the q-value as shown below, considering the reacted 2 moles of solid iron:

q=2mol*-799 kJ/mol\\\\q=-1598kJ

Which means that 1598 kJ of energy are evolved when 2 moles of solid iron react.

Best regards!
