Substance A undergoes a first order reaction A  B with a half- life of 20 min at 25 °C. If the initial concentration of A ([A]◦

) in a sample is 2.7 M, what will be the concentration of A after 60 min?

The concentration of A will be <em>0.34 mol·L⁻¹</em> after 60 min.

In a first-order reaction, the formula for the amount remaining after <em>n</em> half-lives is

\text{[A]} = \frac{\text{[A]}_{0}}{2^{n}}\\

If t_{\frac{1}{2}} = \text{20 min}\\

n = \frac{t}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}} = \frac{\text{60 min}}{\text{20 min}}= \text{3.0}

∴ \text{[A]} = \frac{\text{2.7 mol/L}}{2^{3.0}} = \frac{\text{2.7 mol/L}}{8.0} = \textbf{0.34 mol/L}

Two different compounds are obtained by combining nitrogen with oxygen. the first compound results from combining 46.7 g of n wi
kondaur [170]
<span>First:

46.7 g of N with 53.3 g of O,

=> mass ratio O to N = 53.3 / 46.7 = 1.1413

Second

17.9 g of N and 82.0 g of O.

mass ratio of O to N = 82.0 / 17.9 = 4.5810

Third

Ratio of the mass ratio of O to N in the second compound to the mass ratio of O to N in the first compound =

= 4.5810 / 1.1413 = 4.013 ≈ 4
