First thing is you have to find the half life of the substance. The half life equation is
Final Mass = Initial Mass * 0.5^(time/time per half life)
Now we substitute the values given and we get
60 mg = 120 * 0.5^(14/t)
Solve for t and you get
t = 14 hours
Now plug 19 into the equation
Final Mass = 120 * 0.5^(19/14)
Final Mass = 46.84 mg

What is the overall effect of adding a solute to a Solution
user100 [1]

Answer:

By adding the solute in to solution boiling point is increased while freezing point is decreased.

Explanation:

When solute in added into the solvent the boiling point of solvent increases for example,

Water is boiled at 100 °C, when sodium chloride is added its boiling point increased. Ions of salt interact with solvent and prevent the water molecules to escape from the surface and form gas molecules. In order to make it boiled solution must be heated above 100  °C.

But there is different case with freezing point. Freezing point is the state in which substance converted into the solid. At given temperature when solute is added into the solvent it prevent the formation of solid. It required time to decrease the temperature first and as the temperature is decreases solid is formed.

How do I solve this problem?
JulijaS [17]
First question. Applying ideal gas equation PV=nRT, P= 101.3 x 10³Pa = 1atm. therefore, 1 x 260 x 10^-3 = n x 0.082 x 294.( Temperature in kelvin=273+21). n = 0.01 moles. Volume of gas at STP= n x 22.4 = 0.01x22.4 = 0.224L. Hope this helps

What is the molarity when water is added to 4 moles of sodium chloride to make 0.5 liter of solution?
loris [4]
       If    0.5 L of solution contains 4 mol
then let     1 L of solution contain  x  mol
      
       ⇒    (0.5 L) x  = (4 mol) (1 L)

                         x  = (4 mol · L)  ÷  (0.5 L)

                         x  = 8 mol

Thus the molarity of the Sodium Chloride solution is 8 mol / L   OR  8 mol/dm³.
