What property of an atom determines its general reactivity

1 answer:

3 0

The number of electrons in the outermost shell of an atom determines its reactivity. EX: noble gases have a low reactivity because they have a full electron shell, and don't need any more outermost ones.
EX: halogens are highly reactive because they readily gain an electron to fill their outermost shell

The half-life of cobalt-60 is 5.3 years. after __________ years, 1/4 of the original amount of cobalt-60 will remain.

cestrela7 [59]

The number of years required for 1/4 cobalt-60 to remain after decay is calculated as follows

after one half life 1/2 of the original mass isotope remains

after another half life 1/4 mass of original mass remains

therefore if one half life is 5.3 years then the years required

= 2 x 5.3years = 10.6 years

Suppose that 25.0 mL of 0.10 M CH3COOH (aq) is titrated with 0.10 M NaOH (aq). What is the pH after the addition of 10.0 mL of 0

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

$pH=-1.37$

Explanation:

We are given that 25 mL of 0.10 M $CH_3COOH$ is titrated with 0.10 M NaOH(aq).

We have to find the pH of solution

Volume of $CH_3COOH=25mL=0.025 L$

Volume of NaoH=0.01 L

Volume of solution =25 +10=35 mL= $\frac{35}{1000}=0.035 L$

Because 1 L=1000 mL

Molarity of NaOH=Concentration OH-=0.10M

Concentration of H+= Molarity of $CH_3COOH$ =0.10 M

Number of moles of H+=Molarity multiply by volume of given acid

Number of moles of H+= $0.10\times 0.025$ =0.0025 moles

Number of moles of $OH^-=0.10\times 0.01$ =0.001mole

Number of moles of H+ remaining after adding 10 mL base = 0.0025-0.001=0.0015 moles

Concentration of H+= $\frac{0.0015}{0.035}=4.28\times 10^{-2} m/L$

pH=-log [H+]=-log [4.28 $\times 10^{-2}$ ]=-log4.28+2 log 10=-0.631+2

$pH=-1.37$

Carboplatin (C6H12N2O4Pt) is a platinum-containing compound that is used to treat certain forms of cancer. This compound contain

givi [52]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: $ 35.6

Explanation:

C₆H₁₂N₂O₄Pt

Platinum = 52.5 %

Price = $1047 / troy ounce

cost of platinum = ? of 2 g

1 troy ounce = 480 grains

1 grain = 64.8 mg

Process

Get 52.5 % of 2 g

2 g ----------------- 100 %

x ----------------- 52.5%

x = (52.5 x 2) / 100

x = 1.05 g

1 g --------------------- 1000 mg

1.05 g ---------------- x

x = 1050 mg of Pt

1 grain ---------------- 64.8 mg

x --------------- 1050 mg

x = 16.2 grains

480 grains ---------------- 1 troy ounce

16.2 grains ---------------- x

x = (16.2 x 1) / 480

x = 0.034 troy ounce

$ 1047 ------------------ 1 troy ounce

x ------------------- 0.034

x = (0,034 x 1047) / 1

x = $ 35.6

6.07 grams is the theoretical yield of calcium phosphate (Ca₃(PO₄)₂).

<h3>How we calculate mass from moles?</h3>

Mass of any substance can be calculated by using moles as:

n = W/M, where

W = required mass

M= molar mass

Given chemical reaction is:

3Ca(NO₃)₂ + 2Na₃PO₄ → 6NaNO₃ + Ca₃(PO₄)₂

From the stoichiometry it is clear that:

3 moles of Ca(NO₃)₂ = produce 1 mole of Ca₃(PO₄)₂

Given mass of Ca(NO₃)₂ = 96.1g

Mole of Ca(NO₃)₂ = 96.1g/164g/mol = 0.5859moles

So, 0.5859 moles of Ca(NO₃)₂ = produce 0.5859×1/3 = 0.0196 moles of Ca₃(PO₄)₂

Required mass of Ca₃(PO₄)₂ will be calculated by using moles as:

W = 0.0196mole × 310g/mole = 6.07 grams

Hence, 6.07 grams is the theoretical yield of calcium phosphate.
