There should be a sufficient amount of the selected isotope in the rock.

The half-life of the isotope must be long enough to capture the age of the rock.

Explanation:

Sully must consider two main aspect before selecting her choice isotope for dating.

There must be sufficient amount of the selected isotope in the rock.

The half - life of the isotope must be long enough to capture the age of the rock.

Radiometric dating gives a rock an absolute numerical age.
The half-life of an isotope is time take for half of a radioactive element to decay.
If the half-life of an isotope is very short, all the parent nuclide would have turned to daughter nuclides.
Also, we must have sufficient amount of both the daughter and parent isotope in the selected rock.

<h3>How to determine the mole of water</h3>

We'll begin by calculating the mass of the water. This can be obtained as follow:

Volume of water = 0.4 L = 0.4 × 1000 = 400 mL
Density of water = 1 g/mL
Mass of water =?

Density = mass / volume

1 = Mass of water / 400

Croiss multiply

Mass of water = 1 × 400

Mass of water = 400 g

Finally, we shall determine the mole of the water

Mass of water = 400 g
Molar mass of water = 18.02 g/mol
Mole of water = ?

Mole = mass / molar mass

Mole of water = 400 / 18.02

Mole of water = 22.2 moles

<h3>How to de terminethe mole of KBr</h3>

Mass of KBr = 0.3 g
Molar mass of KBr = 119 g/mol
Mole of KBr = ?

Mole = mass / molar mass

Mole of KBr = 0.3 / 119

Mole of KBr = 0.0025 mole

<h3>How to determine the mole fraction of KBr</h3>

Mole of KBr = 0.0025 mole
Mole of water = 22.2 moles
Total mole = 0.0025 + 22.2 = 22.2025 moles
Mole fraction of KBr =?

Mole fraction = mole / total mole

Mole fraction of KBr = 0.0025 / 22.2025

Mole fraction of KBr = 0.0001

The decomposition of N2O to N2 and O2 is a first-order reaction. At 730°C, the rate constant of the reaction is 1.94 × 10-4 min-

grin007 [14]

Answer:

Total pressure 5.875 atm

Explanation:

The equation for above decomposition is

$2N_2O \rightarrow 2N_2 + O_2$

rate constant $k = 1.94\times 10^{-4} min^{-1}$

Half life $t_{1/2} = \frac{0.693}{k} = 3572 min$

Initial pressure $N_2 O = 4.70 atm$

Pressure after 3572 min = P

According to first order kinematics

$k = \frac{1}{t} ln\frac{4.70}{P}$

$1.94\times 10^{-4} = \frac{1}{3572} \frac{4.70}{P}$

solving for P we get

P = 2.35 atm

$2N_2O \rightarrow 2N_2 + O_2$

initial 4.70 0 0

change -2x +2x +x

final 4.70 -2x 2x x

pressure of $O_2$ after first half life = 2.35 = 4.70 - 2x

x = 1.175

pressure of $N_2$ after first half life = 2x = 2(1.175) = 2.35 ATM

Total pressure = 2.35 + 2.35 + 1.175

= 5.875 atm
