Answer:

3.34x10¹⁶ molecules of aspirin are in a drop of blood

Explanation:

The recomended dose of aspirin in blood is 100.0μg/mL =

1x10⁻⁴g aspirin / mL of blood.

In a drop (0.100mL) there are:

0.100mL ₓ (1x10⁻⁴g aspirin / mL of blood) = 1x10⁻⁵g aspirin.

Molecular mass of aspirin is:

9C = 12.01g/mol ₓ 9 = 108.09g/mol

8H = 1.01g/mol ₓ 8 = 8.08g/mol

4O = 16g/mol ₓ 4 = 64g/mol

108.09 + 8.08 + 64 = 180.17g/mol

Thus, moles of aspirin in 1x10⁻⁵g are:

1x10⁻⁵g ₓ (1mol / 180.17g) = 5.55x10⁻⁸ moles of aspirin

In 1 mole, you have 6.022x10²³ molecules, thus:

5.55x10⁻⁸ moles of aspirin ₓ (6.022x10²³ molecules / 1 mole ) =

<h3>3.34x10¹⁶ molecules of aspirin are in a drop of blood</h3>

A sample contains 25% parent isotope and 75% daughter isotopes. If the half-life of the parent isotope is 72 years, how old is t
alisha [4.7K]

The radioactive decay obeys first order kinetics

the rate law expression for radioactive decay is

ln\frac{[A_{0}]}{[A_{t}]}=kt

Where

A0 = initial concentration

At = concentration after time "t"

t = time

k = rate constant

For first order reaction the relation between rate constant and half life is:

k=\frac{0.693}{t_{\frac{1}{2} } }

Let us calculate k

k = 0.693 / 72 = 0.009625 years⁻¹

Given

At = 0.25 A0

ln(\frac{A0}{0.25A0})=0.009625  X time

time = 144 years

So after 144 years the sample contains 25% parent isotope and 75% daughter isotopes**

Simply two half lives

When should a lab coat, safety goggles, and gloves be worn in the laboratory?
Sever21 [200]
I would say that you should wear a lab coat, safety goggles, and gloves when the teacher says so - not everything in a lab is dangerous, so there is no need to always wear these. But when the teacher says you should - then you should.

What problems could arise if scientists use different units to measure height
Shkiper50 [21]

Scientists can measure the height in different units but problem could arise when they compare all the measurements. That is the reason there is standard units for measurements.

<span>There may be error arises when an American scientist is measuring the height of an object in inches and other Australian scientist is measuring the height of same object in meters. Their data cannot be compared because they are using different units to measure height.</span>
