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.

Which phrase describes the energy of collision?(1 point)
Kruka [31]

The phrase that describes the energy of collision is D. kinetic energy transferred when billiard balls hit each other.

<h3>What is collision?</h3>

collision can be regarded as  coming together of one solid or direct impact to the other such as car collided with a tree.

Therefore, kinetic energy transferred when billiard balls hit each other is an example.

Since silver and gold are both shiny, rare and do not corrode, they are ideal materials for making... what?
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

Jewelry

Explanation:

Gold and silver  are metals which are malleable, ductile, and lustrous. Also they are noble metals. since they are noble metals they are not affected by acid, oxygen, atmosphere and etc. hence gold and silver are used or suitable for making jewlery.

Which response has both answers correct? Will a precipitate form when 250 mL of 0.33 M Na 2CrO 4 are added to 250 mL of 0.12 M A
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

A precipitate will form.

[Ag⁺] = 2.8x10⁻⁵M

Explanation:

When Ag⁺ and CrO₄²⁻ are in solution, Ag₂CrO₄(s) is produced thus:

Ag₂CrO₄(s) ⇄ 2 Ag⁺(aq) + CrO₄²⁻(aq)

Ksp is defined as:

Ksp = 1.1x10⁻¹² = [Ag⁺]² [CrO₄²⁻]

<em>Where the concentrations [] are in equilibrium</em>

Reaction quotient, Q, is defined as:

Q = [Ag⁺]² [CrO₄²⁻]

<em>Where the concentrations [] are the actual concentrations</em>

<em />

If Q < Ksp, no precipitate will form, if Q >= Ksp, a precipitate will form,

The actual concentrations are -Where 500mL is the total volume of the solution-:

[Ag⁺] = [AgNO₃] = 0.12M ₓ (250mL / 500mL) = 0.06M

[CrO₄²⁻] = [Na₂CrO₄] = 0.33M × (250mL / 500mL) = 0.165M

And Q = [0.06M]² [0.165M] = 5.94x10⁻⁴

As Q > Ksp; a precipitate will form

In equilibrium, some Ag⁺ and some CrO₄⁻ reacts decreasing its concentration until the system reaches equilibrium. Equilibrium concentrations will be:

[Ag⁺] = 0.06M - 2X

[CrO₄²⁻] = 0.165M - X

<em>Where X is defined as the reaction coordinate</em>

<em />

Replacing in Ksp expression:

1.1x10⁻¹² = [0.06M - 2X]² [0.165M - X]

Solving for X:

X = 0.165M → False solution. Produce negative concentrations.

X = 0.0299986M

Replacing, equilibrium concentrations are:

[Ag⁺] = 0.06M - 2(0.0299986M)

[CrO₄²⁻] = 0.165M - 0.0299986M

<h3>[Ag⁺] = 2.8x10⁻⁵M</h3>

[CrO₄²⁻] = 0.135M

HELPPPP Name the three states of matter. Describe the arrangement and movement of atoms in a substance for each state.
olga nikolaevna [1]

Solid, Liquid, and Gas

Solid is the state in which matter maintains a fixed volume and shape; liquid is the state in which matter adapts to the shape of its container but varies only slightly in volume; and gas is the state in which matter expands to occupy the volume and shape of its container.
