Element X is a radioactive isotope such that every 82 years, its mass decreases by half. Given that the initial mass of a sample
lesantik [10]

Answer: 17 years

Explanation:

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics  for radioactive substance is given by:

t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{a}{a-x}

where,

k = rate constant

t = age of sample

a = let initial amount of the reactant

a - x = amount left after decay process  

a) for completion of half life:

Half life is the amount of time taken by a radioactive material to decay to half of its original value.

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

k=\frac{0.693}{82years}=8.4\times 10^{-3}years^{-1}

b) for 8900 g of the mass of the sample to reach  7700 grams

t=\frac{2.303}{8.4\times 10^{-3}}\log\frac{8900}{7700}

t=17years

Thus it will take 17 years

If you start with 10ml of 0.75 m cu(no3)2 how much cu (s) in grams should be recovered in step #7
LenaWriter [7]
<span>0.48 grams. Not a well worded question since it's assuming I know the reactions. But I'll assume that since there's just 1 atom of copper per molecule of Cu(NO3)2, that the reaction will result in 1 atom of copper per molecule of Cu(NO3)2 used. With that in mind, we will have 0.010 l * 0.75 mol/l = 0.0075 moles of copper produced. To convert the amount in moles, multiply by the atomic weight of copper, which is 63.546 g/mol. So 0.0075 mol * 63.546 g/mol = 0.476595 g. Round the results to 2 significant figures, giving 0.48 grams.</span>

When 1 mol of a fuel burns at constant pressure, it exchanges-3452 kJ of heat and does-11 kJ of workon the surroundings. What ar
Degger [83]

Answer:-3463 kJ and -3452kJ

Explanation:

ΔU is the change in internal energy of a system and its formula is;

ΔU = q + w

Where q represents heat transferred into or out of the system. Its value is positive when heat is transfer into the system and negative when heat is produced by the system.

W represents the work done on or by the system. Its value is positive when work is done on the system and negative when it is done by the system.

For the system in this question, we see that it produces heat which means heat is transferred out of the system, therefore the value of q is negative, it can also be seen that work is done by the system which means that w is also negative.

Therefore,

ΔU = -q-w

ΔU = -3452 kJ – 11kJ

= - 3463kJ

ΔH is the change in the enthalpy of a system and its formuls is;

ΔH = ΔU + Δ(PV)

By product rule Δ(PV) becomes ΔPV + PΔV

At constant pressure ΔP = 0. Therefore,

ΔH = -q-w + PΔV

w is equals to PΔV, So:

ΔH = -q

ΔH = -3452kJ
