A first-order reaction has a half-life of 16.7 s . How long does it take for the concentration of the reactant in the reaction t
andrew11 [14]

It takes 33.4 s for the concentration of A to fall to one-fourth of its original value.

A <em>half-life</em> is the time it takes for the concentration to fall to half its original value.

Assume the initial concentration is 1.00 mol/L. Then,

\text{1.00 mol/L }\stackrel{\text{1st half-life }}{\longrightarrow}\text{ 0.50 mol/L } \stackrel{\text{ 2nd half-life }}{\longrightarrow}\text{0.25 mol/L}\\

The concentration drops to one-fourth of its initial value in two half-lives.

∴ Time = 2 × 16.7 s = 33.4 s

A scientist develops a new experiment to test atomic theory. His results do not agree with the theory.
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

When the results of a new experiment to test atomic theory do not agree with the theory, scientist will repeat the experiment to make sure that his results are reliable.

Explanation:

In the scientific context, each new experiment must be performed with precision and following the steps of the scientific method.

An experiment that does not provide reliable data to demonstrate a theory must be reviewed in detail and performed again to confirm the data obtained in the first attempt.

A theory is a postulate that tries to explain a natural phenomenon, but whose argument can be discussed or does not have the acceptance of a law. When the theory is proven and there are no arguments against it, it can be universally accepted and becomes a law.

The other options are not valid due to:

  • <u><em>Scientists worldwide will reject atomic theory because of the new results</em></u><em>.  A theory cannot be discarded without solid arguments or evidence in order to dismiss it and establish a new one.</em>
  • <u><em>The scientist will change his results to agree with the accepted theory</em></u><em>.  This would be an unethical procedure and unacceptable to the scientific community.</em>
  • <em><u>Other scientists will reject the results because they do not agree with the theory</u></em><em>. The opinion of other scientists is not enough to dismiss a theory, if it has a valid scientific basis.</em>
