ivolga24 [154]

The term sensitivity in Analytical Chemistry is "the slope of the calibration curve or a function of analyte concentration or amount".

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

In a sample, the little amounts of substances can be accurately evaluated by a method is termed as "Analytical sensitivity". This detect a target analyte like an antibody or antigen, process is considered as potential of a test to and generally demonstrated as the analyte's minimum detectable concentration.

The acceptable diagnostic sensitivity is not guaranteed by high analytical sensitivity. The percentage of individuals who have a given disarray who are identified by the method as positive for the disarray is known as "Diagnostic sensitivity".

Exactly how much time must elapse before 16 grams of potassium-42decays, leaving 2 grams of the original isotope?(1) 8 × 12.4 ho

AleksandrR [38]

The answer is (3) 3 × 12.4 hours

To calculate this, we will use two equations:
$(1/2) ^{n} =x$
$t_{1/2} = \frac{t}{n}$
where:
n - number of half-lives
x - remained amount of the sample, in decimals
 $t_{1/2}$ - half-life length
t - total time elapsed.

First, we have to calculate x and n. x is remained amount of the sample, so if at the beginning were 16 grams of potassium-42, and now it remained 2 grams, then x is:
2 grams : x % = 16 grams : 100 %
x = 2 grams × 100 percent ÷ 16 grams
x = 12.5% = 0.125

Thus:
 $(1/2) ^{n} =x$
 $(0.5) ^{n} =0.125$
$n*log(0.5)=log(0.125)$
$n= \frac{log(0.5)}{log(0.125)}$
$n=3$

It is known that the half-life of potassium-42 is 12.36 ≈ 12.4 hours.
Thus:
 $t_{1/2} = 12.4$
 $t_{1/2} *n = t$
 $t= 12.4*3$

Therefore, it must elapse 3 × 12.4 hours before 16 grams of potassium-42 decays, leaving 2 grams of the original isotope

In this experiment we will be using a 0.05 M solution of HCl to determine the concentration of hydroxide (OH-) in a saturated so

gulaghasi [49]

Answer: The moles of hydroxide ions present in the sample is 0.0008 moles

Explanation:

To calculate the concentration of acid, we use the equation given by neutralization reaction:

$n_1M_1V_1=n_2M_2V_2$

where,

$n_1,M_1\text{ and }V_1$ are the n-factor, molarity and volume of acid which is HCl.

$n_2,M_2\text{ and }V_2$ are the n-factor, molarity and volume of base which is $Ca(OH)_2$

We are given:

$n_1=1\\M_1=0.05M\\V_1=16mL\\n_2=2\\M_2=?M\\V_2=36.0mL$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$1\times 0.05\times 16=2\times M_2\times 36\\\\M_2=\frac{1\times 0.05\times 16}{2\times 36}=0.011M$

To calculate the moles of hydroxide ions, we use the equation used to calculate the molarity of solution:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}$

Molarity of solution = 0.011 M

Volume of solution = 36.0 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.011=\frac{\text{Moles of }Ca(OH)_2\times 1000}{36}\\\\\text{Moles of }Ca(OH)_2=\frac{0.011\times 36}{1000}=0.0004mol$

1 mole of calcium hydroxide produces 1 mole of calcium ions and 2 moles of hydroxide ions.

Moles of hydroxide ions = (0.0004 × 2) = 0.0008 moles

Hence, the moles of hydroxide ions present in the sample is 0.0008 moles
