Explanation:
The given data is:
The half-life of gentamicin is 1.5 hrs.
The reaction follows first-order kinetics.
The initial concentration of the reactants is 8.4 x 10-5 M.
The concentration of reactant after 8 hrs can be calculated as shown below:
The formula of the half-life of the first-order reaction is:
Where k = rate constant
t1/2=half-life
So, the rate constant k value is:
The expression for the rate constant is :
Substitute the given values and the k value in this formula to get the concentration of the reactant after time 8 hrs is shown below:
Answer: The concentration of reactant remains after 8 hours is 2.09x10^-6M.
A metalloid is a type of chemical element which has a preponderance of properties in between, or that are a mixture of, those of metals and nonmetals.
Answer:
a group of unicellular microorganisms
Answer:
1.12 × 10⁻⁴ M
Explanation:
Step 1: Write the reaction for the solution of Mg(OH)₂
Mg(OH)₂(s) ⇄ Mg²⁺(aq) + 2 OH⁻(aq)
Step 2: Make an ICE chart
We can relate the solubility product constant (Ksp) with the solubility (S) through an ICE chart.
Mg(OH)₂(s) ⇄ Mg²⁺(aq) + 2 OH⁻(aq)
I 0 0
C +S +2S
E S 2S
The solubility product constant is:
Ksp = 5.61 × 10⁻¹² = [Mg²⁺] × [OH⁻]² = S × (2S)² = 4S³
S = 1.12 × 10⁻⁴ M
The volume of CO2 at STP =124.298 L

Given
Reaction
4 KMnO4, +4 C3H5(OH)5, -7K2CO3, + 7 Mn2O3, +5 CO2, + 16 H2O
701,52 g of KMnO4
Required
volume of CO2 at STP
Solution
mol KMnO4 (MW=158,034 g/mol) :
mol = mass : MW
mol = 701.52 : 158.034
mol = 4.439
mol CO2 from equation : 5/4 x mol KMnO4 = 5/4 x 4.439 = 5.549
At STP 1 mol = 22.4 L, so for 5.549 moles :
=5.549 x 22.4
=124.298 L
