Answer:

4.5moles

Explanation:

First, let us balance the equation given from the question. This is illustrated below:

KClO3 —> KCl + O2

There are 2 atoms of O on the right side and 3 atoms on the left. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of KClO3 and 3 in of O2 as shown below

2KClO3 —> KCl + 3O2

Now, we have 2 atoms each of K and Cl on the left side and 1atom each of K and Cl on the right. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of KCl as shown below:

2KClO3 —> 2KCl + 3O2

Now the equation is balanced.

From the balanced equation,

2 moles of KClO3 produced 3 moles of O2.

Therefore, 3 moles of KClO3 will produce = (3 x 3) /2 = 4.5moles of O2.

Therefore 3 moles of KClO3 will produce 4.5 moles of O2

What is the half-life of 20 g of a radioactive sample if 5 g remain after 8 minutes?
Anni [7]

Hello!

The half-life is the time of half-disintegration, it is the time in which half of the atoms of an isotope disintegrate.

We have the following data:

mo (initial mass) = 20 g

m (final mass after time T) = 5 g

x (number of periods elapsed) = ?

P (Half-life) = ? (in minutes)

T (Elapsed time for sample reduction) = 8 minutes

Let's find the number of periods elapsed (x), let us see:

m =  \dfrac{m_o}{2^x}

5 =  \dfrac{20}{2^x}

2^x = \dfrac{20}{5}

2^x = 4

2^x = 2^2

\boxed{x = 2}


Now, let's find the half-life (P) of the radioactive sample, let's see:

T = x*P

8 = 2*P

2\:P = 8

P = \dfrac{8}{2}

\boxed{\boxed{P = 4\:minutes}}\Longleftarrow(Half-Life)\end{array}}\qquad\checkmark

I Hope this helps, greetings ... DexteR! =)

IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

I think the answer is 4) 41

Explanation:

APE= atomic number, proton and the electrons are the same number

MAN= mass = atomic number - neutrons

121 - 80 = 41

i haven't done this in a while so hope this helps :)
