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.

g Stereoisomers that are not mirror images of each are ____________ . The cis and trans isomers of a particular compound are ___
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

Diasteriomers

Stereoisomers

Stereoisomers

Meso compounds

Constitutional isomers

Enantiomers

Enantiomers

Explanation:

Isomers are compounds that posses the same molecular formula but different structural formulas.

Constitutional isomers differ only in atom to atom connectivity while stereoisomers differ in arrangement of atoms in space. Stereo isomers differ in physical and chemical properties of the compounds.

When stereo isomers are non-superimpossible mirror images of each other, they are called enantiomers. Enantiomers have the same chemical and physical properties and differ only in their reaction with chiral substances.

Achiral compounds are compounds that do not exhibit chirality. Some achiral compounds contain stereogenic centers and are called meso compounds.

How many moles of Pb(NO3)2 are required
yarga [219]

Answer:

12 moles Pb(NO₄)₂ needed.

Explanation:

                3Pb(NO₃)₂ +2AlCl₃     => 3PbCl₂ + 2Al(NO₃)₃

Given =>   ? moles      8 moles

from reaction stoichiometry, 2 moles AlCl₃ requires 3 moles Pb(NO₄)₂ then 8 moles AlCl₃ requires 3/2(8) moles of the Pb(NO₄)₂ => 12 moles Pb(NO₄)₂ needed.
