Answer:

The half life of element XY is 12 days

Explanation:

Given:

Time taken for  1024 grams to decay into 32 grams  = 60 days

To Find:

The half life of element XY = ?

Solution:

The Half life is calculated by

N = N_0 (\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{t}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}

t_{\frac{1}{2}} =\frac{t}{log_{\frac{1}{2}}( \frac{N(t)}{N_0})}}

Substituting the values,

t_{\frac{1}{2}} =\frac{60}{log_{\frac{1}{2}}( \frac{32}{1024})}}

t_{\frac{1}{2}} =\frac{60}{log_{\frac{1}{2}}(0.03125)}}

t_{\frac{1}{2}} =\frac{60}{5}

t_{\frac{1}{2}} = 12

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!

1. In which of these forms does acid precipitation reach the surface of<br><br> Earth?
vodomira [7]

Answer:

Wet deposition

Explanation:

when the chemicals produced in the Earth can evaporate and reach the clouds, it will mixed with the water inside the clouds and form a slightly acid water than when is time to deposit the water into the Earth as snow, rain, fog or mist, the chemicals will travel with the water dissolved in it.

When they reach the soil, eventually, the water will  evaporate or will be absorbed by soil, so the chemicals that are left behind, will reach the surface of Earth.

Depending where the chemicals were deposit, they can contaminate the sea, or other water bodies, or soil areas of crops, buildings, etc.

Hope this info is useful.
