<u>Answer:</u> The sample of Carbon-14 isotope will take 2377.9 years to decay it to 25 %
<u>Explanation:</u>
The equation used to calculate rate constant from given half life for first order kinetics:
where,
= half life of the reaction = 5730 years
Putting values in above equation, we get:
Rate law expression for first order kinetics is given by the equation:
![k=\frac{2.303}{t}\log\frac{[A_o]}{[A]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=k%3D%5Cfrac%7B2.303%7D%7Bt%7D%5Clog%5Cfrac%7B%5BA_o%5D%7D%7B%5BA%5D%7D)
where,
k = rate constant = 
t = time taken for decay process = ? yr
![[A_o]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BA_o%5D)
= initial amount of the sample = 100 grams
[A] = amount left after decay process = (100 - 25) = 75 grams
Putting values in above equation, we get:
Hence, the sample of Carbon-14 isotope will take 2377.9 years to decay it to 25 %
Nitrogen is crucial to the marine life and it is disappearing because it cannot be assimilated by most organisms in the water.
Answer:
In general, atomic radius decreases across a period and increases down a group. ... Down a group, the number of energy levels (n) increases, so there is a greater distance between the nucleus and the outermost orbital. This results in a larger atomic radius.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
The enthalpy of the reactants is greater than that of the products.
Answer 1:
Isomers are compounds with same molecular formula but different structure formula. Isomers are classified into two types
a) Structural/configurational isomers
b) Stereo isomers
In structural/configurational isomers atom and functional groups are attached in different fashion. Structural isomers may have different functional groups. Structural isomers are further classified as chain isomers, position isomers and functional isomers. In case of stereo-isomers, compounds have same functional group, but different orientation in space. They also have difference activity towards polarized light.
Answer 2:
Hexane has a molecular formula of C6H14. It exhibits following structural isomers
a) hexane<span>,
b) 2-methylpentane
c)3-methylpentane
d) 2,2-dimethylbutane
e) 2,3-dimethylbutane
Thus, in all there are 5 isomers of hexane
Answer 3:
</span><span>Butane has two possible isomers but that decane has 75 possible isomers. This can be attributed to the fact that butane has 4 carbon atoms, while decane has 10 carbon atom. As the number of carbon atom increases, there are higher possible sites of linkage, in different fashion. Therefore, as number 69 of carbon atoms increases, number of different possible isomers increases.
Answer 4:
It has been observed that, though isomers have same molecular formula, but the have different boiling points. Infact, branched isomers have lower boiling point as compared to linear isomers. For example, hexane has boiling point = 69 oC, 2 methyl pentane has boiling point = 60 oC, 2,4, dimethyl butane has boiling point = 58 oC and 2,2 dimethyl butane has boiling point = 50 oC. Thus, it can be observed that branched isomers have lower boiling points as compared to linear isomers. This can be attributed to lower van der Waal's forces of interaction in branched isomers as compared to linear isomers.
