The rate at which a certain drug is eliminated by the body follows first-order kinetics, with a half life of 68 minutes. Suppose

in a particular patient the concentration of this drug in the bloodstream immediately after injection is 0.12/μgmL. What will the concentration be 340 minutes later? Round your answer to 2 significant digits.

Answer:

The concentration would be; 0.0038 μgmL

Explanation:

Half life, t1/2 = 68 minutes

Initial Conc. [A]o = 0.12/μgmL

Final Conc [A] = ?

Time. k = 340 minutes

ln[A] = ln[A]o - kt

t1/2 = ln2 / k

k = 0.693 / t1/2  = 0.693 / 68 = 0.01019

ln[A] = ln (0.12) - 0.01019 (340)

ln[A] = -2.1203 -3.4646

ln[A] = -5.5849

[A] = 0.00375 ≈ 0.0038 μgmL

What elements form chlorides with formula xcl?
dolphi86 [110]
<span>Since chlorine favours a (-1) oxidation state, it forms an ionic bond with group one metals with the formula XCl. All group one metals react vigorously with chlorine gas; and each reaction gets more violent as you move down Group 1 and produces a white crystalline salt. The reaction with chlorine is as follows 2X + Cl2 which gives 2XCl. Where X is an Alkali metal.</span>

Which of these elements has two electrons in its outer p orbitals?
ivanzaharov [21]

Silicon (si) has two electrons in its outer p orbitals.

Explanation:

For the element of SILICON, you previously know that the atomic number shows the number of electrons. That indicates there are 14 electrons in a silicon atom. Looking at the design, you can see there are two particles in shell one, eight in shell two, and four in shell three. Si which is 4 elements from the left side of the table,first 2 electrons are s orbitals when next two electrons go to Si
