Particles in a gas are far apart compared to a solid or liquid, allowing it not to have a definitive shape or volume. This also means that gases can fill any container and be easily compressed.
For radioactive decay, we can relate current amount, initial amount, decay constant and time using:
N = No x exp(-λt)
Half-life = ln(2)/λ
λ = ln(2) / 5730
N/No = 80% = 0.8
0.8 = exp( -ln(2)/5730 x t)
t = 1844 years
A solid is hard and the molecules are packed together, a liquid can move around freely because the molecules aren't as packed together :)
Answer:
2
Explanation:
Since it has to be 2H2+02→2H20 for it to be balanced.
Answer:
Ka = 1.52 E-5
Explanation:
- CH3-(CH2)2-COOH ↔ CH3(CH2)2COO- + H3O+
⇒ Ka = [H3O+][CH3)CH2)2COO-] / [CH3(CH2)2COOH]
mass balance:
⇒<em> C</em> CH3(CH2)2COOH = [CH3(CH2)2COO-] + [CH3(CH2)2COOH] = 1.0 M
charge balance:
⇒ [H3O+] = [CH3(CH2)2COO-]
⇒ Ka = [H3O+]²/(1 - [H3O+])
∴ pH = 2.41 = - Log [H3O+]
⇒ [H3O+] = 3.89 E-3 M
⇒ Ka = (3.89 E-3)² / ( 1 - 3.89 E-3 )
⇒ Ka = 1.519 E-5
