T=20 min
m₀=200 g
t=60 min

the mass of element through time t is:
m=m₀*2^(-t/T)

m=200*2^(-60/20)=25 g

25 grams of element will be left after 60 minutes

Answer: 25 grams

Explanation:

Radioactive decay follows first order kinetics.

Half-life of element = 20 minutes

\lambda =\frac{0.693}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}=\frac{0.693}{20}=0.035min^{-1}

N=N_o\times e^{-\lambda t}

N = amount left after time t = ?

N_0 = initial amount  = 200 g

\lambda = rate constant

t= time  = 60 min

N=200\times e^{- 0.035 min^{-1}\times 60 min}

N=25g

Thus amount left after 60 minutes will be 25 grams.

Explanation:

During the formation of BeCl2, the beryllium atom bonds with two chlorine atoms via single covalent bonds. The number of electron pairs around the central atom will be two. No lone pair is found in the molecule. If we analyse this information then we can conclude that BeCl2 has sp hybridization.

A solution is prepared from 4.5701 g of magnesium chloride and 43.238 g of water. The vapor pressure of water above this solutio
balandron [24]

Answer:

i = 2.483

Explanation:

The vapour pressure lowering formula is:

Pₐ = Xₐ×P⁰ₐ <em>(1)</em>

For electrolytes:

Pₐ = nH₂O / (nH₂O + inMgCl₂)×P⁰ₐ

Where:

Pₐ is vapor pressure of solution (<em>0.3624atm</em>), nH₂O are moles of water, nMgCl₂ are moles of MgCl₂, i is Van't Hoff Factor, Xₐ is mole fraction of solvent and P⁰ₐ is pressure of pure solvent (<em>0.3804atm</em>)

4.5701g of MgCl₂ are:

4.5701g ₓ (1mol / 95.211g) = 0.048000 moles

43.238g of water are:

43.238g ₓ (1mol / 18.015g) = 2.400 moles

Replacing in (1):

0.3624atm = 2,4mol / (2.4mol + i*0.048mol)×0.3804atm

0.3624atm / 0.3804atm = 2,4mol / (2.4mol + i*0.048mol)

2.4mol + i*0.048mol = 2.4mol / 0.9527

2.4mol + i*0.048mol = 2.5192mol

i*0.048mol = 2.5192mol - 2.4mol

i = 0.1192mol / 0.048mol

<em>i = 2.483</em>

<em />

I hope it helps!

Using the reaction below determine the amount of Sulfur proceduced in grams (this is a limiting reaction question) 2 H2S + SO2 -
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

<u>= 2.2 g pf S. produced</u>

Explanation:

Balanced Reaction equation:

2H_{2} S + SO_{2} →  3S + 2H_{2} O

1 mole of H2S - 34.1g

? moles - 3.2g

= 3.2/34.1 =<u> 0.09 moles of H2S</u>

Also,

1 mole of S02 - 64.07 g

? moles - 4.42g

= 4.42/64.07 <u>= 0.069 moles of SO2</u>

<u />

<em>Meaning SO2 is the limiting reagent</em>

Finally, 3 moles of S -  32g of sulphur

0.069 mole = ? g of Sulphur

= 0.069 x 32

<u>= 2.2 g pf S.</u>
