Answer:
An acid is a substance that donates protons (in the Brønsted-Lowry definition) or accepts a pair of valence electrons to form a bond (in the Lewis definition). A base is a substance that can accept protons or donate a pair of valence electrons to form a bond. Bases can be thought of as the chemical opposite of acids.
Answer:
a) a0 was 46.2 grams
b) It will take 259 years
c) The fossil is 1845 years old
Explanation:
<em>An unknown radioactive substance has a half-life of 3.20hours . If 46.2g of the substance is currently present, what mass A0 was present 8.00 hours ago?</em>
A = A0 * (1/2)^(t/h)
⇒ with A = the final amount = 46.2 grams
⇒ A0 = the original amount
⇒ t = time = 8 hours
⇒ h = half-life time = 3.2 hours
46.2 = Ao*(1/2)^(8/3.2)
Ao = 261.35 grams
<em>Americium-241 is used in some smoke detectors. It is an alpha emitter with a half-life of 432 years. How long will it take in years for 34.0% of an Am-241 sample to decay?</em>
t = (ln(0.66))-0.693) * 432 = 259 years
It will take 259 years
<em>A fossil was analyzed and determined to have a carbon-14 level that is 80% that of living organisms. The half-life of C-14 is 5730 years. How old is the fossil?</em>
<em />
t = (ln(0.80))-0.693) * 5730 = 1845
The fossil is 1845 years old
Answer:
V = 12.5 L
Explanation:
Given data:
Volume of NO = 15.0 L
Temperature and pressure = standard
Volume of nitrogen gas produced = ?
Solution:
Chemical equation:
6NO + 4NH₃ → 5N₂ + 6 H₂O
Number of moles of NO:
PV = nRT
n = PV/RT
n = 1 atm × 15.0 L / 0.0821 atm.L /mol.K × 273.15 K
n = 15.0 atm.L / 22.43 atm.L /mol
n = 0.67 mol
now we will compare the moles of No and nitrogen gas.
NO : N₂
6 : 5
0.67 : 5/6×0.67 = 0.56
Volume of nitrogen gas:
PV = nRT
1 atm × V = 0.56 mol × 0.0821 atm.L /mol.K × 273.15 K
V = 12.5 atm.L / 1 atm
V = 12.5 L

Answer:
TRUE
Explanation:
Humans and many animals are responsible for air pollution. Even natural processess such as excreting feces results in release of methane, CO2 etc which contribute to air pollution
