How long is a half life for c14

1 answer:

3 0

The half-life of a radioactive isotope describes the amount of time that it takes half of the isotope in a sample to decay. In the case of radiocarbon dating, the half-life of carbon 14 is 5,730 years<span>.</span>

Acetic acid (HC2H3O2) is an important ingredient of vinegar. A sample of 50.0 mL of a commercial vinegar is titrated against a 1

butalik [34]

Answer:

The concentration of acetic acid present in the vinegar is 0.113M

Explanation:

1. As the titration occurs between an acid and a base is called neutralization. The balanced chemical reaction between the acetic acid and the NaOH is:

$NaOH+HC_{2}H_{3}O_{2}=NaC_{2}H_{3}O_{2}+H_{2}O$

2. Calculate the moles of NaOH used, taking in account the concentration of NaOH 1.00M:

$5.65mL*\frac{1.00molesNaOH}{1000mLNaOH}=0.00565molesNaOH$

3. Calculate the number of moles of acetic acid neutralized using stoichiometry:

$0.00565molesNaOH*\frac{1molHC_{2}H_{3}O_{2}}{1molNaOH}=0.00565molesHC_{2}H_{3}O_{2}$

4. Calculate the concentration of acetic acid present in the vinegar:

$\frac{0.00565molesHC_{2}H_{3}O_{2}}{50.0mLvinegar}*\frac{1000mLvinegar}{1Lvinegar}=0.113M$

The earth's radius is 6.37×10^6m; it rotates once every 24 hours. with the angular speed of 7.3 x 10^-5 what is the speed of a p

alexira [117]

The speed of the earth's surface located at 2/3 of the length of the arc between the pole which measure from the equator is 232.5 m/s.

Solution:
So the givens are, earth's radius = 6.37X10^6m, and the angular distance from the pole is 90 degrees. So 60 degrees is the 2/3.

r = 6.37x10^6 * cos(60) = 3.185x10^6m
since v = wr
v = 7.3x10^-5 * 3.185x10^6

v - 232.5 m/s
