<u>Answer:</u> The sample of Carbon-14 isotope will take 2377.9 years to decay it to 25 %
<u>Explanation:</u>
The equation used to calculate rate constant from given half life for first order kinetics:
where,
= half life of the reaction = 5730 years
Putting values in above equation, we get:
Rate law expression for first order kinetics is given by the equation:
![k=\frac{2.303}{t}\log\frac{[A_o]}{[A]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=k%3D%5Cfrac%7B2.303%7D%7Bt%7D%5Clog%5Cfrac%7B%5BA_o%5D%7D%7B%5BA%5D%7D)
where,
k = rate constant = 
t = time taken for decay process = ? yr
![[A_o]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BA_o%5D)
= initial amount of the sample = 100 grams
[A] = amount left after decay process = (100 - 25) = 75 grams
Putting values in above equation, we get:
Hence, the sample of Carbon-14 isotope will take 2377.9 years to decay it to 25 %
Alkali Metals (Group 1) elements experience an increase in the vigour of their reaction in water as they go down the group (as the atomic number increase). As such the most reactive Alkali Metal would be
FRANCIUM, which is at the base of Group One.
Quite frankly, you do not want Francium to react with water- that's a huge explosion on your hand.
Answer:
Look at the properties of Oxygen and Silicon - the two most abundant elements in the Earth's crust - by clicking on their symbols on the Periodic Table.
Explanation:
The particles of gases have more kinetic energy than liquids and gases.
Explanation:
- We know that in case of solids the molecules are very tightly packed , in case of liquids the molecules are loosely packed and lastly in case of gases the molecules are very loosely packed.
- As we known in case of solids energy present is very less and in case of liquids energy present is more than solids and lastly in case of gases the energy present is most.
- Gases have more kinetic energy because the particles present in gaseous form can move easily without any obstruction.
