a 32 gram radioactive sample has a half-life of 2 days how much of the original sample remains after 6 days

Chemistry

bixtya [17]3 years ago
3 0
First, we will get the "n", the number of half lives, it is the elapsed time over the half life. In the problem, the time is measured in days, so we have 

6/2 = 3 

to get the ending amount of radioactive sample, we have

32g x (1/2)³ = 4 grams of radioactive sample ⇒ the amount left after 6 days

1. If we used 0.0100 moles of K2CO3, how many moles of SrCO3 can be expected to form?​
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

0.01 moles of SrCO₃

Explanation:

In this excersise we need to propose the reaction:

K₂CO₃ + Sr(NO₃)₂  →  2KNO₃ + SrCO₃

As we only have data about the potassium carbonate  we assume the strontium nitrite as the excess reactant.

1 mol of K₂CO₃ react to 1 mol of Sr(NO₃)₂ in order to produce 2 moles of potassium nitrite and 1 mol of strontium carbonate.

Ratio is 1:1. In conclussion,

0.01 mol of K₂CO₃ must produce 0.01 moles of SrCO₃

One atom of silicon can properly be combined in a compound with
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

C. two atoms of oxygen.

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Silicon has 14 electrons

Silicon is part of Group IV, all the elements there have 4 valence electrons.

It can form a compound when 4 valence electrons bind with the 4 valence elctrons of silicon

A. four atoms of calcium.

Calcium has 2 valence elctrons. 4 atoms of calcium <u>cannot bind</u> on 1 atom of silicon since there are only 4 valence electrons.

B. one atom of chlorine.

1 atom of chlorine has 7 valence electrons. Chlorine can bind with an atom with 1 valence electron. Since silicon has 4 valence electrons, they will <u>not bind.</u>

Silicon can bind with 4 atoms of chlorine to form SiCl4

C. two atoms of oxygen.

Oxygen has 6 valence electrons, this means oxygen can bind with an element with 2 valence electrons.

Since silicon has 4 valence electrons, it <u>can bind</u> with 2 atoms of oxygen to form SiO2 (silicon dioxide).

D. three atoms of hydrogen.

Hydrogen has 1 valence electron. 1 hydrogen atom can bind with an element that has 7 valence electrons.

Three atoms of hydrogen can bind with an element that has 5 valence electrons.

Silicon <u>will not</u> bind with 3 atoms of hydrogen ( but can bind with 4 atoms of hydrogen)
