You are performing an experiment that uses 114Ag. 113Ag is radioactive, decays by beta-- emission and has a half-life of 21 minu

tes. It requires 4.2 hours to ship the material from the warehouse to your laboratory. How many grams should you order if the experiment requires that you have 0.0575 grams to begin the experiment?

Answer: The 234.74 grams of sample should be ordered.

Explanation:

Let the gram of  114 Ag to ordered be N_o

The amount required for the beginning of experiment = 0.0575 g

Time requires to ship the sample = 4.2hour = 252 min(1 hr = 60 min)

Half life of the sample ={t_{\frac{1}{2}} = 21 min

\lambda =\frac{0.693}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}=\frac{0.693}{21 min}=0.033 min^{-1}

\log[N]=\log[N_o]-\frac{\lambda t}{2.303}

\log[0.0575 g]=\log[N_o]-\frac{0.033 min^{-1}\times 252 min}{2.303}

N_o=234.74 grams

The 234.74 grams of sample should be ordered.

describe the behavior of the molecules in a liquid. Explain this behavior in terms of intermolecular forces.
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

Molecules in liquids are held to other molecules by intermolecular interactions, which are weaker than the intramolecular interactions that hold the atoms together within molecules and polyatomic ions.

What is the percent composition HCN?
kupik [55]

Answer:

see calculations in explanation

Explanation:

percent = part/total x 100%

part = ∑ atomic mass of element

  • hydrogen = 1.008 amu (atomic mass units)
  • carbon = 12.011 amu
  • nitrogen = 14.007 amu

total = ∑ molecular mass of compound

       = H amu  +  C amu +  Namu

       = 1.008 amu + 12.011 amu + 14.007 amu

       = 27.026 amu

%H = (1.008amu/27.026amu)100% = 3.730%

%C = (12.011amu/27.026amu)100% = 44.442%

%N = (14.007amu/27.026amu)100% = 51.827%

Check results ∑%values = 100%

3.730% + 44.442% + 51.827% = 99.999% ≅ 100%

Which state of matter has atomic spacing that is close together and definite shape? gas liquid solid plasma none of the above
den301095 [7]

Answer: solid

Explanation:In a solid, the atoms are closely packed and hence are close together. This results in a definite pattern of packing and a definite shape. Solids have a defined shape and volume as a result of this orderly arrangement of atoms very close to each other in the solid material.

Cobalt-63 has a half-life of 5.3 years. If a pellet that has been in storage for 15.9 years contains 40.0g of Cobalt-63, how muc
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

320 g  

Step-by-step explanation:

The half-life of Co-63 (5.3 yr) is the time it takes for half of it to decay.  

After one half-life, half (50 %) of the original amount will remain.  

After a second half-life, half of that amount (25 %) will remain, and so on.  

We can construct a table as follows:  

  No. of               Fraction         Mass

half-lives   t/yr   Remaining   Remaining/g

      0        0              1

      1         5.3           ½

     2        10.6           ¼

     3        15.9           ⅛                 40.0

     4        21.2           ¹/₁₆

We see that 40.0 g remain after three half-lives.

This is one-eighth of the original mass.

The mass of the original sample was 8 × 40 g = 320 g
