Answer:

Explanation:

This can be contradictory, depending on whether the 0.1 M

is the total species concentration or the concentration of each of the two components. I'll consider this to be the former...

VA− = 9.125 mL

VHA = 15.875 mL

The Henderson-Hasselbalch equation is:

pH = pKa + log [A−][HA]

We have a pH 4.5

solution of acetic acid and acetate, so from there we can get the ratio of weak acid to conjugate base:

[A−][HA]=10

pH − pKa = 104.5 − 4.74 = 0.5754

Now, if the total concentration is

0.10 M , then:

[HA] + [A−] 0.5754

[HA] = 0.10 M

⇒[HA] = 0.10 M 1.0000 +0.5754

= 0.0635 M

−−−−−−−−

⇒[A−] = 0.0365 M

−−−−−−−−

and these concentrations are AFTER mixing. Since the total volume is 50 mL , or 0.050 L, the mols of each component (which are constant!) are:

nA − = 0.0365 molL × 0.050L =

0.001825 mols

−−−−−−−−−−−−

nHA = 0.0635 molL × 0.050L =

0.003175 mols

−−−−−−−−−−−−

So, if both of the starting concentrations were

0.20 M, we can find the volume they each start with:

VA − = 1 L0.20mols

A− × 0.001825mols A− = 0.009125 L = 9.125 mL

−−−−−−−−

VHA = 1 L 0.20 mols HA × 0.003175

mols HA = 0.015875 L = 15.875 mL

−−−−−−−−−

And this should make sense, because the total starting volume is

25.000 mL , the total ending volume is twice as large; the total species concentration is half the concentration that both species started with.

An unknown radioactive substance has a half-life of 3.20hours . If 46.2g of the substance is currently present, what mass A0 was
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

a) a0 was 46.2 grams

b) It will take 259 years

c) The fossil is 1845 years old

Explanation:

<em>An unknown radioactive substance has a half-life of 3.20hours . If 46.2g of the substance is currently present, what mass A0 was present 8.00 hours ago?</em>

A = A0 * (1/2)^(t/h)

⇒ with A = the final amount = 46.2 grams

⇒ A0 = the original amount

⇒ t = time = 8 hours

⇒ h = half-life time = 3.2 hours

46.2 = Ao*(1/2)^(8/3.2)

Ao = 261.35 grams

<em>Americium-241 is used in some smoke detectors. It is an alpha emitter with a half-life of 432 years. How long will it take in years for 34.0% of an Am-241 sample to decay?</em>  

t = (ln(0.66))-0.693) * 432 = 259 years

It will take 259 years

<em>A fossil was analyzed and determined to have a carbon-14 level that is 80% that of living organisms. The half-life of C-14 is 5730 years. How old is the fossil?</em>

<em />

t = (ln(0.80))-0.693) * 5730 = 1845

The fossil is 1845 years old

The radius of an atom is closest in size to a
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

The size of an isolated atom can't be measured because we can't determine the location of the electrons that surround the nucleus. We can estimate the size of an atom, however, by assuming that the radius of an atom is half the distance between adjacent atoms in a solid. This technique is best suited to elements that are metals, which form solids composed of extended planes of atoms of that element. The results of these measurements are therefore often known as metallic radii.
