When burning sodium (Na) in oxygen (O2), you get sodium oxide (Na2O) and/or sodium peroxide (Na2O2). At high pressures, you can additionally get sodium superoxide (NaO2).

4 Na + O2 → 2 Na2O, and then partially 2 Na2O + O2 → 2 Na2O2.

Under normal conditions, approximately 20% of the mixture is Na2O2.

6 Na + 2 O2 → 2 Na2O + Na2O2

hope it helps

The mass percent of solute in a solution containing 3.73 g KBr dissolved in 131 g of H2O is:

Elina [12.6K]

$\huge \underbrace \mathfrak \red{Answer}$

28%

Explanation:

mass of solute(KBr) = 3.73g

mass of solvent(H2O) = 131g

mass of solution = mass of solute + mass of solvent

= 3.73 + 131

= 134.73g

$\sf \large {mass \: percentage = \frac{mass \: of \: solute}{mass \: of \: solvent} \times 100} \\ \\ \sf mass \: percentage = \frac{3.73}{134.73} \times 100 \\ \\ \sf mass \: percentage = 0.028 \times 100 \\ \\ \sf mass \: percentage = 28\%$

The radioactive decay of a certain sample produced 846 disintegrations per minute. exactly 3.00 days later, the rate of decay wa

Margarita [4]

Answer:

$\boxed{\text{1.81 da}}$

Explanation:

1. Calculate the decay constant

The integrated rate law for radioactive decay is 1

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

where

A₀ and A_t are the counts at t = 0 and t

k is the radioactive decay constant

$\ln \dfrac{846}{269} = k \times 3.00\\\\\ln3.145 = 3.00k\\1.146 = 3.00k\\\\k =\dfrac{1.146}{3}\\\\k = \text{0.382 /da}\\$

2. Calculate the half-life

$t_{\frac{1}{2}} = \dfrac{\ln2}{k} = \dfrac{\ln2}{0.382} = \text{1.81 da}$

The half-life for decay is $\boxed{\textbf{1.81 da}}$ .

A student sets up the following equation to convert a measurement. (The ? stands for a number the student is going to calculate.

kvasek [131]

Answer:

1 cm/s

Explanation:

From the question given above,

the student is trying to convert 0.010 m/s to a number in cm/s.

Thus, we can convert 0.010 m/s to cm/s as illustrated below:

Recall:

1 m/s = 100 cm/s

Therefore,

0.010 m/s = 0.010 m/s × 100 cm/s ÷ 1 m/s

0.010 m/s = 1 cm/s

Therefore, 0.010 m/s is equivalent to 1 cm/s
