I believe it’s the 3rd option
Answer:
C. Combustion
Explanation:
Combustion- an organic compound containing carbon, hydrogen and sometimes oxygen reacts with oxygen gas to form carbon dioxide and water.
First, we have to get:
1- The heat required to increase T of ice from -50 to 0 °C:
according to q formula:
q1 = m*C*ΔT
when m is the mass of ice = mol * molar mass
= 1 mol * 18 mol/g
= 18 g
and C is the specific heat capacity of ice = 2.09 J/g-K
and ΔT change in temperature = 0- (-50) = 50°C
by substitution:
∴q1 = 18 g * 2.09 J/g-K *50°C
= 1881 J = 1.881 KJ
2- the heat required to melt this mass of ice is :
q2 = n*ΔHfus
when n is the number of moles of ice = 1 mol
and ΔHfus = 6.01 KJ/mol
by substitution:
q2 = 1 mol * 6.01 KJ/mol
= 6.01 KJ
3- the heat required to increase the water temperature from 0°C to 60 °C is:
q3 = m*C*ΔT
when m is the mass of water = 18 g
C is the specific heat capacity of water = 4.18 J/g-K
ΔT is the change of Temperature of water = 60°C - 0°C = 60°C
by substitution:
∴q3 = 18 g * 4.18 J/g-K * 60°C
= 4514 J = 4.514 KJ
∴the total change of enthalpy = q1+q2+q3
= 1.881 KJ +6.01 KJ + 4.514 KJ
= 12.405 KJ
Answer:
8.625 grams of a 150 g sample of Thorium-234 would be left after 120.5 days
Explanation:
The nuclear half life represents the time taken for the initial amount of sample to reduce into half of its mass.
We have given that the half life of thorium-234 is 24.1 days. Then it takes 24.1 days for a Thorium-234 sample to reduced to half of its initial amount.
Initial amount of Thorium-234 available as per the question is 150 grams
So now we start with 150 grams of Thorium-234





So after 120.5 days the amount of sample that remains is 8.625g
In simpler way , we can use the below formula to find the sample left

Where
is the initial sample amount
n = the number of half-lives that pass in a given period of time.
