Answer:

After 9076 years, there are present 5,34g of ¹⁴C

Explanation:

The radioactive decay of ¹⁴C is:

¹⁴C → ¹⁴N + β

Kinetic decay model take the form of:

A = A₀ exp(-kt)

Where A is the concentration of ¹⁴C after t time

Based on the given data:

A = 16 * exp(-0.000121*9076) = 16(0.3335) = 5,34g

<em>After 9076 years, there are present 5,34g of ¹⁴C</em>

<em />

I hope it helps!

<u>Given:</u>

Initial amount of carbon, A₀ = 16 g

Decay model = 16exp(-0.000121t)

t = 90769076 years

<u>To determine:</u>

the amount of C-14 after 90769076 years

<u>Explanation:</u>

The radioactive decay model can be expressed as:

A = A₀exp(-kt)

where A = concentration of the radioactive species after time t

A₀ = initial concentration

k = decay constant

Based on the given data :

A = 16 * exp(-0.000121*90769076) = 16(0) = 0

Ans: Based on the decay model there will be no C-14 left after 90769076 years

A reducing agent is one which is oxidised in the reaction itself. When you take into account the oxidation numbers you will see that the Cl- ions are oxidised from an oxidation number of -1 to 0 in Cl2. Therefore Cl- ions are the reducing agent.

Answer:

<u><em>Volume of NaOH, aka V2 = 6.32 mL to 3 sig. fig.</em></u>

A chemistry student weighs out 0.0941 g of hypochlorous acid (HClo) into a 250. ml. volumetric flask and dilutes to the mark with distilled water. He plans to titrate the acid with 0.2000 M NaOH solution. Calculate the volume of NaOH solution the student will need to add to reach the equivalence point. Round your answer to 3 significant digits mL.

Explanation:

1 mole HClO = 74.44g

0.0941g = \frac{0.0941}{74.44} = 0.00126 moles

Concentration = no. of moles/volume in L

Hence, Concentration of HClO = 0.00126/ 0.250L

= 0.005M.

C1V1 =C2V2

0.005 × 250 mL = 0.2 × V2

<u><em>Volume of NaOH, aka V2 = 6.32 mL to 3 sig. fig.</em></u>

The lock-and-key model and the induced-fit model are two models of enzyme action explaining both the specificity and the catalyt
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

The lock-and-key model:

c. Enzyme active site has a rigid structure complementary

The induced-fit model:

a. Enzyme conformation changes when it binds the substrate so the active site fits the substrate.

Common to both The lock-and-key model and The induced-fit model:

b. Substrate binds to the enzyme at the active site, forming an enzyme-substrate complex.

d. Substrate binds to the enzyme through non-covalent interactions

Explanation:

Generally, the catalytic power of enzymes are due to transient covalent bonds formed between an enzyme's catalytic functional group and a substrate as well as non-covalent interactions between substrate and enzyme which lowers the activation energy of the reaction. This applies to both the lock-and-key model as well as induced-fit mode of enzyme catalysis.

The lock and key model of enzyme catalysis and specificity proposes that enzymes are structurally complementary to their substrates such that they fit like a lock and key. This complementary nature of the enzyme and its substrates ensures that only a substrate that is complementary to the enzyme's active site can bind to it for catalysis to proceed. this is known as the specificity of an enzyme to a particular substrate.

The induced-fit mode proposes that binding of substrate to the active site of an enzyme induces conformational changes in the enzyme which better positions various functional groups on the enzyme into the proper position to catalyse the reaction.
