Explanation:

Hello!

Let's solve this!

The empirical formula says how many moles of each element are in the compound, but determined experimentally.

The molecular formula is the formula that indicates which elements make up the compound and how many there are of each element.

So to answer your question An empirical formula of a compound is the simplest whole-number ratio of atoms of the elements in the compound. The molecular formula of a compound is either the same as its experimentally determined empirical formula, or it is a simple whole-number multiple of it.

A rock is believed to have been formed 1.25 billion years ago, as calculated by using potassium-40 dating. If the half-life of p

Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

The answer to the question is

50 % of the original amount of potassium 40 will be left after one half life or 1.25 billion years

Explanation:

To solve the question we note that the half life is the time for half of the quantity of substance that undergoes radioactive decay to disintegrate, thus

we have

half life of potassium 40 K₄₀ = 1.25 billion years

To support the believe tht the rock was formed 1.25 billion years ago we have

$N_{(t)} =N_{(0)} (\frac{1}{2}) ^{\frac{t}{t_{\frac{1}{2} } } }$

After 1.25 billion years we have

$N_{(t)} =N_{(0)} (\frac{1}{2}) ^{\frac{1.25billion}{1.25 billion} } } }$ = $N_{(t)} =N_{(0)} (\frac{1}{2}) ^{1 } } }$ =0.5 of $N_{(0)}$ will be left or 50 % of the original amount of potassium 40 will be left

Advocard [28]

Answer:

$\large \boxed{\text{3.9 L}}$

Explanation:

We can use the Combined Gas Laws to solve this problem

$\dfrac{p_{1}V_{1} }{T_{1}} = \dfrac{p_{2}V_{2}}{T_{2}}$

Data

p₁ = 571.2 Torr; p₂ = 400 Torr

V₁ = 3.5 L; V₂ = ?

T₁ = 21.5 °C; T₂ = 6.8 °C

Calculations

(a) Convert the temperatures to kelvins

T₁ = (21.55 + 273.15) K = 294.70 K

T₂ = (6.8 + 273.15) K = 279.95 K

(b) Calculate the new volume

$\begin{array}{rcl}\dfrac{p_{1}V_{1} }{T_{1}} & = & \dfrac{p_{2}V_{2}}{T_{2}}\\\\\dfrac{\text{571.2 Torr $\times$ 3.5 L}}{\text{294.65 K}} & = & \dfrac{\text{400 Torr} \times V_{2}}{\text{279.95 K}}\\\\\text{6.78 L} & = & \text{1.429V}_{2}\\\\V_{2} & = & \textbf{4.7 L}\\\end{array}\\\text{The new volume of the balloon is $\large \boxed{\textbf{4.7 L}}$}$
