CFCs and their associated compounds were developed in the early 1900s as a non-toxic, non-flammable solution to other more dangerous products such as ammonia.
Yeah no one is gonna read all that babe.
The much of the sample that would remain unchanged after 140 seconds is 2.813 g
Explanation
Half life is time taken for the quantity to reduce to half its original value.
if the half life for Scandium is 35 sec, then the number of half life in 140 seconds
=140 sec/ 35 s = 4 half life
Therefore 45 g after first half life = 45 x1/2 =22.5 g
22.5 g after second half life = 22.5 x 1/2 =11.25 g
11.25 g after third half life = 11.25 x 1/2 = 5.625 g
5.625 after fourth half life = 5.625 x 1/2 = 2.813
therefore 2.813 g of Scandium 47 remains unchanged.
The reaction for the combustion of methane can be expressed as follows.
CH4 + 2O2 --> CO2 + 2H2O
We solve first for the amount of carbon dioxide in moles by dividing the given volume by 22.4L which is the volume of 1 mole of gas at STP.
moles of CO2 = (5.6 L) / (22.4 L/1 mole)
moles of CO2 = 0.25 moles
Then, we can see that every mole of carbon dioxide will need 1 mole of methane
moles methane = (0.25 moles CO2) x (1 moles O2/1 mole CO2)
= 0.25 moles CH4
Then, multiply this by the molar mass of methane which is 16 g/mole. Thus, the answer is 4 grams methane.
