Answer: The correct option is A.

Explanation: In a chemical reaction, reactants react to form a number of products.

For the formation of products, the bonds of the individual reactants must be broken and the bonds of the products must be formed.

For example: Formation of water from hydrogen gas and oxygen gas. Reaction follows:

$2H_2(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2H_2O(l)$

The Bonds of hydrogen and oxygen molecule are broken and new bonds between hydrogen and oxygen atoms are formed to give water molecule.

You have just isolated a new radioactive element. If you can determine its half-life, you will win the Nobel Prize in physics. Y

lbvjy [14]

Answer: 2.58 days

Explanation:

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

$t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{a}{a-x}$

where,

k = rate constant = ?

t = age of sample = 6 days

a = initial amount of the reactant = 1 g

a - x = amount left after decay process = 0.2 g

a) to find the rate constant

$6=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{1.0}{0.2}$

$k=\frac{2.303}{6}\log\frac{1.0}{0.2}$

$k=0.268days^{-1}$

b) for completion of half life:

Half life is the amount of time taken by a radioactive material to decay to half of its original value.

$t_{\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{0.693}{k}$

$t_{\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{0.693}{0.268}=2.58days$

The half life is 2.58 days

What things typically are counted in multiples or fractions of moles

ololo11 [35]

Answer:

Individually well, defined identical chemically units such as molecules, ions, atoms, or electrons

Explanation:

The mole is used as the unit of measurement for substance such as molecules, ions, atoms, or electrons. One mole of a substance is equivalent to 6.02×10²³ particles of the substance. The number, 6.02 × 10²³ is known as Avogadro's number.

The particles quantified as moles are individually well, defined identical chemically units such that the mole can be used to describe a part of a substance or the whole substance consisting of several moles of the substance combined.

What happens when an electron in its lowest energy level or ground state when it is by absorbs energy?

tester [92]

Explanation:

atom changes from a ground state to an excited state by taking on energy from its surroundings in a process called absorption. The electron absorbs the energy and jumps to a higher energy level. In the reverse process, emission, the electron returns to the ground state by releasing the extra energy it absorbed
