Let's use the example: H2O --->  H2 + O2
We find how many elements of a product are on one side and how many elements on the other side.
Reactant: H=2 O=1
Product:   H=2 O=2
We need to make the same amount of hydrogen and oxegyn atoms on each side, regardless of how high the numbers are, and we do this by adding coefficients to the compounds.

Reactant: H=4 O=2
Product  : H=4 O=2
2 H2O--->   2 H2 + O2

The half-life of cesium-137 is 30 years. Suppose we have a 200-mg sample. (a) Find the mass that remains after t years.
scZoUnD [109]

Given:

Half life(t^ 1/2) :30 years

A0( initial mass of the substance): 200 mg.

Now we know that

A= A0/ [2 ^ (t/√t)]

Where A is the mass that remains after t years.

A0 is the initial mass

t is the time

t^1/2 is the half life

Substituting the given values in the above equation we get

A= [200/ 2^(t/30) ] mg


Thus the mass remaining after t years is [200/ 2^(t/30) ] mg

How many moles in 30.0 grams of h3po4
jok3333 [9.3K]
Molar mass H₃PO₄ = 98.0 g/mol

1 mole ----- 98.0 g
? mole ------ 30.0 g

moles = 30.0 * 1 / 98.0

= 0.306 moles

hope this helps!

In the winter , people often buy large bags of rock salt to sprinkle on their walkways . Why do people do this?
slamgirl [31]

The salt causes the water to freeze at a lower temperature. When a solute, aka salt, is introduced to the system, the freezing point is lowered. This makes the water freeze at a lower temperature.
