<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

Answer B

For alpha decay to cause a loss in mass, such as that in the uranium 238 conversion to thorium 234, what must the atomic weight
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Explanation:

Reaction equation showing alpha decay in Uranium-238 is as follows.

    ^{238}_{92}U \rightarrow ^{234}_{90}Th + ^{4}_{2}He

It is known that an alpha particle is basically a helium nucleus and it contains 2 protons and 2 neutrons.  

Symbol of an alpha particle is ^{4}_{2}\alpha.

As atomic mass or weight is the sum of total number of protons and neutrons present in an atom.

Hence, the atomic weight of the alpha particle is (2 + 2) = 4.

A 0.200 g sample of unknown metal x is dropped into hydrochloride acid and realeases 80.3 mL of hydrogen gas at STP using ideal
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

The number of mole of the unknown metal is 3.58×10¯³ mole

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the number of mole hydrogen gas, H2 that will occupy 80.3 mL at stp.

This is illustrated below:

Recall:

1 mole of any occupy 22.4L or 22400 mL at stp.

1 mole of H2 occupies 22400 mL at stp.

Therefore, Xmol of H2 will occupy 80.3 mL at stp i.e

Xmol of H2 = 80.3/22400

Xmol of H2 = 3.58×10¯³ mole

Therefore, 3.58×10¯³ mole of Hydrogen gas was released.

Now, we can determine the mole of the unknown metal as follow:

The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:

X + 2HCl —> XCl2 + H2

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of the unknown metal reacted to produce 1 mole of H2.

Therefore, 3.58×10¯³ mole of the unknown metal will also react to produce 3.58×10¯³ mole of H2.

Therefore, the number of mole of the unknown compound is 3.58×10¯³ mole.
