The given question is incomplete. The complete question is :

The thermal decomposition of phosphine (PH3) into phosphorus and molecular hydrogen is a first-order reaction: 4PH_3(g)\rightarrow P_4(g)+6H_2(g) The half-life of the reaction is 35.0 s at 680°C. Calculate the first order rate constant.

Answer: a) The first order rate constant is 0.0198s^{-1}

b) The time after which 95% reactions gets completed is 151 seconds

Explanation:

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics 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 finding the rate constant

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}{35.0s}=0.0198s^{-1}

The first order rate constant is 0.0198s^{-1}

b) for completion of 95 % of reaction

t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{100}{100-95}

t=\frac{2.303}{0.0198}\log\frac{100}{5}

t=151 s

The time after which 95% reactions gets completed is 151 seconds

What is the electronic configuration of the following atoms?
Nastasia [14]

Answer:The electron configuration of an atom shows the number of electrons in each sublevel in each energy level of the ground-state atom. To determine the electron configuration of a particular atom, start at the nucleus and add electrons one by one until the number of electrons equals the number of protons in the nucleus. Each added electron is assigned to the lowest-energy sublevel available. The first sublevel filled will be the 1s sublevel, then the 2s sublevel, the 2p sublevel, the 3s, 3p, 4s, 3d, and so on. This order is difficult to remember and often hard to determine from energy-level diagrams such as Figure 5.8

A more convenient way to remember the order is to use Figure 5.9. The principal energy levels are listed in columns, starting at the left with the 1s level. To use this figure, read along the diagonal lines in the direction of the arrow. The order is summarized under the diagram

Given the following data:N2(g) + O2(g)→ 2NO(g), ΔH=+180.7kJ2NO(g) + O2(g)→ 2NO2(g), ΔH=−113.1kJ2N2O(g) → 2N2(g) + O2(g), ΔH=−163
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

ΔH = +155.6 kJ

Explanation:

The Hess' Law states that the enthalpy of the overall reaction is the sum of the enthalpy of the step reactions. To do the addition of the reaction, we first must reorganize them, to disappear with the intermediaries (substances that are not presented in the overall reaction).

If the reaction is inverted, the signal of the enthalpy changes, and if its multiplied by a constant, the enthalpy must be multiplied by the same constant. Thus:

N₂(g) + O₂(g) → 2NO(g) ΔH = +180.7 kJ

2NO(g) + O₂(g) → 2NO₂(g) ΔH = -113.1 kJ

2N₂O(g) → 2N₂(g) + O₂(g) ΔH = -163.2 kJ

The intermediares are N₂ and O₂, thus, reorganizing the reactions:

N₂(g) + O₂(g) → 2NO(g) ΔH = +180.7 kJ

NO₂(g) → NO(g) + (1/2)O₂(g) ΔH = +56.55 kJ (inverted and multiplied by 1/2)

N₂O(g) → N₂(g) + (1/2)O₂(g) ΔH = -81.6 kJ (multiplied by 1/2)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

N₂O(g) + NO₂(g) → 3NO(g)

ΔH = +180.7 + 56.55 - 81.6

ΔH = +155.6 kJ

Uranium-238 decays to lead-206 with a half-life of 4.5 x 109 yr. Determine how much uranium-238 decays in milligrams (to three s
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

2.15 mg of uranium-238 decays

Explanation:

For decay of radioactive nuclide-

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

where N is amount of radioactive nuclide after t time, N_{0} is initial amount of radioactive nuclide and t_{\frac{1}{2}} is half life of radioactive nuclide

Here N_{0}=4.60 mg, t=4.1\times 10^{9}yr and t_{\frac{1}{2}}=4.5\times 10^{9}yr

So,N=(4.60mg)\times (\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{4.1\times 10^{9}}{4.5\times 10^{9}}}

so, N = 2.446 mg

mass of uranium-238 decays = (4.60-2.446) mg = 2.15 mg
