The table below compares the radioactive decay rates of two materials. Material Original mass of material (in grams) Mass of mat

erial after 21.6 seconds (in grams) 1 100 12.5 2 200 25 Based on the table, which of these conclusions is most likely correct? The half-life of Material 1 and Material 2 are equal. The half-life of Material 2 is double the half-life of Material 1. The half-life of Material 2 is 10.8 seconds more than the half-life of Material 1. The half-life of Material 1 is 10.8 seconds more than the half-life of Material 2.

Answer:

The half-life of Material 1 and Material 2 are equal.

Explanation:

Material 1 disintegrates to half its mass three times in 21.6 s, to go from 100g

to 12.5g. That is,

100g - 50g - 25g - 12.5g

Material 2 disintegrates to half its mass three times in 21.6 s, to go from 200g to 25g. That is,

200g - 50g - 25g - 12.5g.

This means that regardless of their initial masses involved, material 1 and material 2 have equal half-life.

Their half-life is 21.6 ÷ 3 = 7.2 sec

How many moles are in 33 L of CO₂ gas at STP?
Leona [35]
We can assume that the volume of one mole of any gas (within reason) is 22.4 L only if we know that the pressure of the gas is 1 atmosphere (101 kPa) and that the temperature of the gas is zero degrees Celsius (273 K). These are known as standard temperature and pressure (STP). So if the gas in question happens to be at STP then the calculation would be:

3.00 L x 1 mol/22.4 L = 0.134 mol

And 3.00 litres CO2 or any other gas at STP would contain 0.134 moles. If the gas was at some other temperature or pressure, assuming they were “moderate,” you could calculate the number of moles by solving the following formula for n.

PV =nRT Where P is pressure, V is volume, T is temperature in Kelvin and R is the ideal gas constant consistent with the units of volume and pressure used.

A sample of water in equilibrium with its vapor in a closed 3-L container has a vapor pressure of 23.8 torr at 25°C. The contain
QveST [7]

Answer:

23.8 torr

Explanation:

Vapor pressure of a liquid is simply the pressure of the vapor that arises when the liquid evaporates in a closed container above the liquid sample.

From the question given above, the vapor pressure is 23.8 torr at 25°C. Since the temperature is constant, the vapor will remain the same when equilibrium is reached in the new container as vapor pressure depends on the temperature of the liquid.
