A chemist wishing to do an experiment requiring 47-Ca2+ (half-life = 4.5 days) needs 5.0 μg of the nuclide. What mass of 47-CaCO
NARA [144]

Answer:

5.8μg

Explanation:

According to the rate or decay law:

N/N₀ = exp(-λt)------------------------------- (1)

Where N = Current quantity,  μg

            N₀ = Original quantity, μg

             λ= Decay constant day⁻¹

              t =  time in days

Since the half life is 4.5 days, we can calculate the  λ from (1) by  substituting N/N₀ = 0.5

0.5 = exp (-4.5λ)

ln 0.5  = -4.5λ

-0.6931 = -4.5λ

λ =   -0.6931 /-4.5

  =0.1540 day⁻¹

Substituting into (1)  we have :

N/N₀ = exp(-0.154t)----------------------------- (2)

To receive 5.0 μg of the nuclide with a delivery time of 24 hours or 1 day:

N = 5.0 μg

N₀ = Unknown

t = 1 day

Substituting into (2) we have

[5/N₀]   = exp (-0.154 x 1)

    5/N₀        = 0.8572

N₀  =  5/0.8572

     =    5.8329μg

    ≈     5.8μg

The Chemist must order 5.8μg  of 47-CaCO3

During which step in the Can Crush Lab did water vapor force air from the can?
irina [24]
When you heated the can with the bit of water inside and you boiled it over a flame, the water turned to vapor (gas) and the pressure in the inside of the can is different from the pressure on the outside of the can. When you placed the can into a ice water beaker or a container, the can shrunk it's size, decreasing it's mass and density. The can shrunk as a result of the inside pressure being equalized with the outside pressure.
The part where you placed it in the ice bath or container was when the water vapor was forced out of the can.

Ammonia, nh3, is a weak base with a kb = 1.8 x 10-5. in a 0.8m solution of ammonia, which has a higher concentration: ammonia (n
insens350 [35]
Answer is: concentration ammonia is higher than concentration of ammonium ion.
Chemical reaction of ammonia in water: NH₃ + H₂O → NH₄⁺ + OH⁻.
Kb(NH₃) = 1,8·10⁻⁵.
c₀(NH₃) = 0,8 mol/L.
c(NH₄⁺) = c(OH⁻) = x.
c(NH₃) = 0,8 mol/L - x.
Kb = c(NH₄⁺) · c(OH⁻) / c(NH₃).
0,000018 = x² /  0,8 mol/L - x.
solve quadratic equation: x = c(NH₄⁺) = 3,79·10⁻³ mol/L.

Which one of the following items does NOT characterize a reducing agent? a. A reducing agent loses electrons. b. A reducing agen
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer: D

Explanation:

A reducing agent is a species that reduces other compounds, and is thereby oxidized. The whole compound becomes the reducing agent. In other words, of a compound is oxidized, then they are the reducing agent. On the other hand, if the compound is reduced, it is an ozidizing agent.

Since we have established that a reducing agent is the compound being oxidized, we know that A is not our answer. An oxidized compound is losing electrons. Choice A states exactly this.

For B, this is true as we have established this already.

C is also correct. Since a reducing agent loses electrons, it becomes more positive. This makes the oxidation number increase.

D would be our correct answer. It is actually a good oxidizing agent is a metal in a high oxidation state, such as Mn⁷⁺.
