<u>Answer:</u> The half life of the decomposition reaction is 0.204 s

<u>Explanation:</u>

The equation used to calculate half life for first order kinetics:

t_{1/2}=\frac{0.693}{k}

where,

k = rate constant of the reaction = 3.40s^{-1}

t_{1/2} = half life of the reaction = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

t_{1/2}=\frac{0.693}{3.40s^{-1}}\\\\t_{1/2}=0.204s

Hence, the half life of the decomposition reaction is 0.204 s

Hey There:

First order  half life equation :

T 1/2  = ln ( 2 ) /K

T 1/2 = 0.693 / 3.40

T 1/2 = 0.204 s

What is the relative atomic mass of a hypothetical element that consists isotopes in the indicated natural abundances
belka [17]

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is:What is the relative atomic mass of a hypothetical element that consists isotopes in the indicated natural abundances.

Isotope                    mass amu        Relative abundance

1                                77.9                     14.4

2                               81.9                     14.3

3                               85.9                      71.3

Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units.

Answer: 84.2 amu

Explanation:

Mass of isotope 1 = 77.9  

% abundance of isotope 1 = 14.4% = \frac{14.4}{100}=0.144

Mass of isotope 2 = 81.9

% abundance of isotope 2 = 14.3% = \frac{14.3}{100}=0.143

Mass of isotope 3 = 85.9

% abundance of isotope 2 = 71.3% = \frac{71.3}{100}=0.713

Formula used for average atomic mass of an element :

\text{ Average atomic mass of an element}=\sum(\text{atomic mass of an isotopes}\times {{\text { fractional abundance}})

A=\sum[(77.9\times 0.144)+(81.9\times 0.143)+(85.9\times 0.713)]

A=84.2amu

Therefore, the average atomic mass of a hypothetical element that consists isotopes in the indicated natural abundances is 84.2 amu

1. Express in conventional notation (no exponents) in the space provided within the
mina [271]

Answer:

a) 320: two significant figures.

b) 2,366: four significant figures.

c) 73.0: three significant figures.

d. 532.5: four significant figures.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given information, it turns out possible for us to write each number by knowing we move the decimal places to the right as much as the exponent is, and also, we count every figure, even zeros, because they are to the right of the first nonzero digit:

a) 320: two significant figures because the rightmost zero is not preceded o followed by a decimal place.

b) 2,366: four significant figures.

c) 73.0: three significant figures, because the zero is followed by the decimal place.

d. 532.5: four significant figures.

Regards!
