The atomic mass of potassium is 19 g/mol
90.0 g of potassium contains ;
   = 90.0/19 
   = 4.737 moles
The reaction between potassium and nitrogen is given by the equation;
 6K + N2 = 2K3N
The mole ratio of potassium and nitrogen is 6:1
The number of moles of nitrogen;
    = 4.737/6
    = 0.7895 moles
But, 1 mole of nitrogen occupies 22.4 liters at STP
Therefore; 0.7895 moles × 22.4 liters
                 = 17.685 liters

Answer:8.59L

Explanation:

The other answer has all the right steps but the atomic mass of potassium is actually 39.098 not 19.

A fluorine atom has 9 positive charge,9 negative charges and a mass of 19. Describe the structure of its atom.
Tanya [424]
The atomic structure of the atom contains 9 positively charged particles (protons) and 10 neutrally charged particles (neutrons) in the center of the atom in a clump called the nucleus. Those 9 negatively charged particles (electrons) are moving around outside of the nucleus.
There are 10 neutral charges, because the mass of 19 comes from the number of neutral charges plus the number of positive charges.
To calculate the number of neutral charges, subtract the positive charges from the mass (19 - 9), and you get the number of neutral charges (10).

If an acid/base dissociates completely in water what type of substance is it? Does this mean the acid/base is dangerous?
hram777 [196]

Answer:

1 strong acid

2 yes they are dangerous

Explanation:

Since nearly all of it is dissociated in water, it is called a strong acid.

2 yes Concentrated strong acids can cause severe and painful burns. The pain is due in part to the formation of a protein layer, which resists further penetration of the acid

The table below compares the radioactive decay rates of two materials. Material Original mass of material (in grams) Mass of mat
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

The half-life of Material 1 and Material 2 are equal.

step by step explanation;

Material 1 disintegrates to half its mass three times in 21.6 s, to go from 100g

to 12.5g. That is,

100g - 50g - 25g - 12.5g

Material 2 disintegrates to half its mass three times in 21.6 s, to go from 200g to 25g. That is,

200g - 50g - 25g - 12.5g.

This means that regardless of their initial masses involved, material 1 and material 2 have equal half-life.

Their half-life is 21.6 ÷ 3 = 7.2 sec

The half-life of a first-order reaction is 13 min. If the initial concentration of reactant is 0.085 M, how long would it take u
olasank [31]

Answer: It will take 8.2 minutes until the concentration decreases to 0.055 M

Explanation:

The time after which 99.9% reactions gets completed is 40 minutes

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

a = let initial amount of the reactant

a - x = amount left after decay process  

a) 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}

k=\frac{0.693}{13min}=0.053min^{-1}

b)  Time taken for 0.085 M to decrease to 0.055 M

t=\frac{2.303}{0.053}\log\frac{0.085}{0.055}

t=8.2min

Thus it will take 8.2 minutes until the concentration decreases to 0.055 M
