A reaction, such as this one, starts with a reactant. It needs to have activation energy in order to change to the product, as shown by the hump in the graph. At the top of the hump is the transition state. This is the point where, after enough energy, the reactant will turn into the product. This reaction is exothermic. Since the product has less energy than the reactant, it had to have released energy somehow, and that energy was released in the form of heat, which makes it exothermic. (Exothermic reactions release heat, vs. endothermic reactions which absorb heat).

Bonus: a catalyst can be used to lower the activation energy by giving the reaction a “kick start,” requiring less energy in the reaction for the reactant to turn into the product.

Flourine is found to undergo 10% radioactivity decay in 366 minutes determine its halflife

yuradex [85]

Answer:

$\boxed{\text{2408 min}}$

Explanation:

The integrated rate law for radioactive decay is

$\ln\dfrac{N_{0}}{N_{t}} = kt$

1. Calculate the decay constant

$\begin{array}{rcl}\ln \dfrac{100}{90} & = & k \times 366\\\\1.054 & = & 366k\\\\k & = & \dfrac{1.054 }{366}\\\\k & = & 2.879 \times 10^{-4} \text{ min}^{-1}\\\end{array}\\\\$

2. Calculate the half-life

$t_{\frac{1}{2}} = \dfrac{\ln2}{k}\\\\t_{\frac{1}{2}} = \dfrac{\ln2}{2.879 \times 10^{-4} \text{ min}^{-1}} = \text{2408 min}\\\\\text{The half-life for decay is } \boxed{\textbf{2408 min}}$

tester [92]

solution:

Calculate the molar concentration of the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon(PHA)(178.23g/mol),that was found in a well water sample at a concentration of 6.21ppb.Assume the density of the water is 1.00mg/mL $ppb corresponds to 1\mu g in 1L of sample \\the 6.21 ppb is 6.21\mu g in 1L of sample\\6.21\mu g PHA\times\frac{1mg PHA}{1000\mu g PHA}\times\frac{1g PHA}{1000\mu mg PHA}\times\frac{1mol. PHA}{178.23g PHA}\\3.48\times10^-8mol PHA\\and if we have 1L of solution\\m=\frac{moles}{v(L)}=\frac{3.48\times10^-8mol}{1L}\\3.348\times^10-8 M$
