Answer:

(1) 0.0016 mol/L

Explanation:

Let the concentration of alcohol after 3.5 hours be y M

The reaction follows a first-order

Rate = ky^0 = change in concentration/time

k = 6.4×10^-5 mol/L.min

Initial concentration = 0.015 M

Concentration after 3.5 hours = y M

Time = 3.5 hours = 3.5×60 = 210 min

6.4×10^-5y^0 = 0.015-y/210

y^0 = 1

0.015-y = 6.4×10^-5 × 210

0.015-y = 0.01344

y = 0.015 - 0.01344 = 0.00156 = 0.0016 mol/L (to 4 decimal places)

Irina-Kira [14]
Answer is: gamma emission or gamma decay.
<span>During gamma emission the nucleus emits radiation without changing its composition, if for example have nucleus with six protons and six neutrons (carbon atom) and after gamma decay there is nucleus with six protons and six neutrons.
</span>Gamma rays are the electromagnetic waves with the shortest wavelengths (1 pm), highest frequencies (300 EHz) and highest energy (1,24 MeV).

How are molarity and osmolarity different? What property of salts necessitates this distinction? How does this property affect t
lubasha [3.4K]

<u>Explanation:</u>

The number of moles that are present in a liter of a solution is called Molarity. Mole is the unit of Molarity.The concentration of the solutes that are present in a solution refers to Osmolarity . The unit is osmol. This helps in observing the movement of water from one side to another side of a semipermeable membrane.

The main property of salts that helps to understand the differentiation between the molarity and osmolarity is the salts Ionization.  One mole Na+ and one mole of Cl- is produced by the dissociation of a mole of sodium chloride occurs. The diffusion of water is the osmosis. Here, the one molar sodium chloride solution produces a osmotic pressure which is high than one molar glucose solution and this will not undergo dissociation.

clacium hydroxide is slightly soluable in water about 1 gram will dissolve in 1 liter what are the spectator ions in the reactio
Semmy [17]

Answer:

Ca²⁺ and Cl⁻

Explanation:

In a chemical reaction, spectator ions are ions that <em>are not involved in the reaction</em>, that means are the same before and after the reaction.

In water, calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH)₂ is dissociated in Ca²⁺ and OH⁻. Also, hydrochloric acid, HCl, dissociates in H⁺ and Cl⁻. The reaction is:

Ca²⁺ + 2OH⁻ + 2H⁺ + 2Cl⁻ → 2H₂O + Ca²⁺ + 2Cl⁻

<em>The ions that react are H⁺ and OH⁻ (Acid and base producing water)</em>

<em />

And the ions that are not reacting, <em>spectator ions</em>, are:

<h3>Ca²⁺ and Cl⁻</h3>
