A sample of Francium-212 will decay to one sixteenth of its original amount after 80 minutes. What is the half-life of Francium-

212.
Chemistry

20 minutes.

The sample would lose one half the quantity of francium in each half-life.

1/16 = 1/2^{4} = 1/2 \times1/2 \times1/2 \times1/2

Thus a mass decrease by a factor of 16 would correspond to a period of four half-lives. It took 80 minutes for the sample to lose all these francium, therefore

t_{1/2} = 80/4 = 20 minutes.

How many molecules of CO2 will be produced by the decomposition
34kurt

Answer:

2.99×10²⁵ molecules of CO₂ are produced

Explanation:

Decomposition reaction is:

Ca(HCO₃)₂ => CaO(s) + 2CO₂(g) + H₂O(g)

Ratio is 1:2. Let's make a rule of three:

1 mol of bicarbonate can produce 2 moles of CO₂

Therefore, 24.9 moles of bicarbonate may produce, 49.8 moles (24.9 .2 )/1

Let's determine the number of molecules

1 mol has 6.02×10²³ molecules

49.8 moles must have (49.8 . 6.02×10²³) / 1 = 2.99×10²⁵ molecules
