Given: Half-life of <span>133Ba = t1/2 = 10.5 years.

The radio-active materials obeys 1st order dissociation kinetics. Therefore we have:
k = 0.693 / t1/2 = 0.693 / 10.5 = 0.066 years-1.

Also, </span>k = \frac{2.303}{t} log \frac{Co}{Ct}
where, Co = initial concentration = <span>1.1×10^10 atoms
Ct = conc. of Ba at time t.
......................................................................................................................

Answer 1: For t = </span><span>5 years
</span>0.066 = \frac{2.303}{5} log \frac{Co}{Ct}
Therefore, log\frac{Co}{Ct} = 0.1432
Therefore, Co/Ct = 1.3908
Therefore, Ct = 7.9086 X 10^9 atoms.

Number of 133Ba atoms left after 5 years = 7.9086 X 10^9.
....................................................................................................................

Answer 2: For t = 30 years
0.066 = \frac{2.303}{30} log \frac{Co}{Ct}
Therefore, log\frac{Co}{Ct} = 0.8597
Therefore, Co/Ct = 7.2402
Therefore, Ct = 1.5193 X 10^9 atoms.

Number of 133Ba atoms left after 30 years = 1.5193 X 10^9.
........................................................................................................................

Answer 3: t = 180 years
0.066 = \frac{2.303}{180} log \frac{Co}{Ct}
Therefore, log\frac{Co}{Ct} = 5.1585
Therefore, Co/Ct = 1.44 X 10^5
Therefore, Ct = 7.6367 X10^4 atoms.

Number of 133Ba atoms left after 180 years = 7.6367 X10^4.

How many liters of h2 gas, collected over water at an atmospheric pressure of 752 mm hg and a temperature of 21.0°c, can be made
natta225 [31]
Answer:  
The balanced equation tells us that 1 mole of Zn will produce 1 mole of H2.  
1.566 g Zn x (1 mole Zn / 65.38 g Zn) = 0.02395 moles Zn  
0.02395 moles Zn x (1 mole H2 / 1 mole Zn) = 0.02395 moles H2 produced  
Now use the ideal gas law to find the volume V.  
P = 733 mmHg x (1 atm / 760 atm) = 0.964 atm  
T = 21 C + 273 = 294 K  
PV = nRT 
V = nRT/ P = (0.02395 moles H2)(0.0821 L atm / K mole)(294 K) / (0.964 atm) = 0.600 L
