Half-life<span> is the time required for a quantity to reduce to half its initial value. </span><span>If four half-lives have elapsed for calcium-45, then it would be 4x162.7 = 650.8 days have passed. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day. Feel free to ask more questions.</span>

Answer:

1.78 years

Explanation:

First half life is the time at which the concentration of the reactant reduced to half.

Second half reaction is the time at which the remaining concentration reduced to half or the initial concentration reduced to 1/4.

Third half life is the time at which the remaining concentration reduced to half or the initial concentration reduced to 1/8.

Fourth half life is the time at which the remaining concentration reduced to half or the initial concentration reduced to 1/16.

There are four half lives. So, time has passed = 4*162.7 days = 650.8 days = 1.78 years

Answer:

A

Explanation:

To answer this, we need to use Gay-Lussac's law, which states that:

\frac{P_1}{T_1}= \frac{P_2}{T_2} , where P is pressure and T is temperature

The initial pressure we're given is 4.5 atm (so P1 = 4.5) and the temperature is 45.0°C; however, we need to change Celsius to Kelvins, so add 273 to 45.0: 45.0 + 273 = 318 K (so T1 = 318).

The final pressure is what we want to find, but we do know the final temperature is 3.1°C. Converting this to Kelvins, we get: 3.1 + 273 = 276.1 K, which means T2 = 276.1.

Plug these values in:

\frac{P_1}{T_1}= \frac{P_2}{T_2}

\frac{4.5}{318}= \frac{P_2}{276.1}

Multiply both sides by 276.1:

P_2 ≈ 3.9 atm

The answer is thus A.

Eddi Din [679]

According to what is known about chemical equilibrium and Le Chatelier's principle, when you increase the amount of the reactants, the reaction will be moved to the products, this is because, the most reactants we have the most products we can produce.

From the given choices, the one that goes according to this reason is the third one: The volume of water vapor increases.

Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

Option D. AlCl₃, MgC₂

Explanation:

We need to dissociate all the salts, to determine the i. (Van't Hoff factor).

The salt who has the highest value, will be the better conductor of electricity

CsCl  → Cs⁺  +  Cl⁻   i = 2

CaCl → Ca²⁺ +  Cl⁻   i = 2

CaS → Ca²⁺ +  S⁻²    i = 2

Li₂S → 2Li⁺  +  S⁻²    i = 3

KBr →  K⁺  +  Br⁻       i = 2

AlCl₃ →  Al³⁺ + 3Cl⁻   i = 4

MgC₂  →  Mg²⁺  +  2C⁻   i = 3

KI  →  K⁺  +  I⁻     i = 2

K₂S  →  2K⁺  + S⁻²   i = 3

The biggest i, is in pair D.
