Answer:

2.3125g

Explanation:

Half-life referred to the time required for a quantity to reduce to half of its initial value, It used to calculate how unstable atoms undergo, or the period of time and atom can survive, radioactive decay.

Given:

t(1/2)= 9.25days

Initial mass of Thulium-167 = 48grams

We need to calculate the remaining amount after 37days.

Since we know that 1 half life = 9.25 days

Then 37 days means ( 37/9.25) half lives

37days means 4 half life

That means the 38grams of Thulium-167 will be halved by 4 times.

Then the ratio between the initial Amount and the amount remaining after 37 days can be calculated as. 0.5^(4)

= 37days × 0.5^(4)

= 2.3125g

the remaining amount of Thallium-167 after 37days is 2.3125g

Bogdan [553]
A grey coloured rock with amphibole and intermediate plagioclase like an andesine would classify as an intermediate rock by Bowen's Reaction Series and by the classification of igneous rocks would probably be like a diorite which is intermediate between a gabbro and a granite. A diorite essentially has no quartz but has the silicates amphibole (like hornblende), mica perhaps a little pyroxene and andesine plagioclase.

A sealed container at 25oC contains a gas at a pressure of 104 kPa. What is the pressure of the gas when it is heated to 225oC?
seropon [69]

Answer:

174 kPa

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial temperature, T₁ = 25° C = 25+273 = 298 K

Final temperature, T₂ = 225°C = 225 + 273 = 498 K

Initial pressure, P₁ = 104 kPa

We need to find the new pressure. The relation between the temperature and pressure is given by :

\dfrac{P_1}{T_1}=\dfrac{P_2}{T_2}

So,

P_2=\dfrac{P_1T_2}{T_1}\\\\P_2=\dfrac{104\times 498}{298}\\\\P_2=173.79\ kPa

or

P₂ = 174 kPa

So, the new pressure is 174 kPa.

Calculate the ph of the solution upon the addition of 0.015 mol of naoh to the original buffer. express the ph to two decimal pl
tatiyna
You missed a lot of details in your question, so when we have the complete question as the attached picture so, the answer would be:

when we have the value of Ka = 1.8 x 10^-5 so, we can use it to get the Pka value

by using this formula:

Pka = -㏒Ka 

       = -㏒(1.8 x 10^-5)

       = 4.7

now, after we have got the Pka we need now to get moles of NaC2H3O2 and

moles of HC2H3O2:

when moles of NaOH = 0.015 moles

when moles NaC2H3O2 after adding NaOH
                                           
                                         = initial mol NaC2H3O2 + mol NaOH
  ∴moles NaC2H3O2      = 0.1 + 0.015 = 0.115 moles

and moles HC2H3O2 after adding NaOH

                                         = initial mol HC2H3O2 - mol NaOH

∴ moles HC2H3O2        = 0.1 - 0.015 = 0.085 moles

so, when we have moles [HC2H3O2] &[NaC2H3O2] so we can substitution its values in [A] &[HA] :

by using H-H equation we can get the PH:

when PH = Pka + ㏒[A]/[HA] 

PH = 4.7 + ㏒0.115/0.085

      = 4.8
