Answer is: A. the rate of decay for certain isotopes.

For example, radiocarbon dating is called Carbon-14 dating.

Carbon-14 is a radioactive isotope of carbon, with a half-life of 5730 years.

Carbon bound in fossil fuels has different isotopes than carbon in atmosphere. Fossil fuels are underground and cosmic rays do not affect carbon in them same as atmosphere carbon. Carbon in fossil fuels that is underground longer than ten thousand years has only C-12 isotope and not C-14.

How many particles are in 3.2 mole of neon gas
Cerrena [4.2K]

There are 1.93 x 10²⁴ particles

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

3.2 moles of Neon gas

Required

Number of particles

Solution

The mole is the number of particles(molecules, atoms, ions) contained in a substance  

<em>1 mol = 6.02.10²³ particles </em>

Can be formulated

N=n x No

N = number of particles

n = mol

No = Avogadro's = 6.02.10²³

So the number of particles for 3.2 moles :

N = 3.2 x 6.02.10²³

N = 1.93 x 10²⁴

or

we can describe it using Avogadro's number conversion factor

\tt 3.2~moles\times \dfrac{6.02\times 10^{23}}{1~mole}=1.93\times 10^{24}

Can someone help me with this I've been stuck on it for a few days​
Fiesta28 [93]
So I haven’t got time to answer all of it for you but the id you look at the picture of the periodic table I’ve added the top number in the red boxes are the groups and the period is how many elements down from the top it is (remember that the hydrogen and helium make up period ONE) so remember to include them when counting the elements as you go down the table

Suppose of copper(II) acetate is dissolved in of a aqueous solution of sodium chromate. Calculate the final molarity of acetate
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

0.0714 M for the given variables

Explanation:

The question is missing some data, but one of the original questions regarding this problem provides the following data:

Mass of copper(II) acetate: m_{(AcO)_2Cu} = 0.972 g

Volume of the sodium chromate solution: V_{Na_2CrO_4} = 150.0 mL

Molarity of the sodium chromate solution: c_{Na_2CrO_4} = 0.0400 M

Now, when copper(II) acetate reacts with sodium chromate, an insoluble copper(II) chromate is formed:

(CH_3COO)_2Cu (aq) + Na_2CrO_4 (aq)\rightarrow 2 CH_3COONa (aq) + CuCrO_4 (s)

Find moles of each reactant. or copper(II) acetate, divide its mass by the molar mass:

n_{(AcO)_2Cu} = \frac{0.972 g}{181.63 g/mol} = 0.0053515 mol

Moles of the sodium chromate solution would be found by multiplying its volume by molarity:

n_{Na_2CrO_4} = 0.0400 M\cdot 0.1500 L = 0.00600 mol

Find the limiting reactant. Notice that stoichiometry of this reaction is 1 : 1, so we can compare moles directly. Moles of copper(II) acetate are lower than moles of sodium chromate, so copper(II) acetate is our limiting reactant.

Write the net ionic equation for this reaction:

Cu^{2+} (aq) + CrO_4^{2-} (aq)\rightarrow CuCrO_4 (s)

Notice that acetate is the ion spectator. This means it doesn't react, its moles throughout reaction stay the same. We started with:

n_{(AcO)_2Cu} = 0.0053515 mol

According to stoichiometry, 1 unit of copper(II) acetate has 2 units of acetate, so moles of acetate are equal to:

n_{AcO^-} = 2\cdot 0.0053515 mol = 0.010703 mol

The total volume of this solution doesn't change, so dividing moles of acetate by this volume will yield the molarity of acetate:

c_{AcO^-} = \frac{0.010703 mol}{0.1500 L} = 0.0714 M
