What is the average yearly rate of change of carbon-14 during the first 5000 years?

Chemistry

Answer:

The average yearly rate of change of carbon-14 during the first 5000 years = 0.0004538 grams per year

Explanation:

Given that the mass of the carbon 14 at the start = 5 gram

At the end of 5,000 years we will have;

A = A_0 \times e^{-\lambda \times t}

Where

A = The amount of carbon 14 left

A₀ = The starting amount of carbon 14

e = Constant = 2.71828

T_{1/2} = The half life

\lambda = 0.693/T_{1/2}

t = The time elapsed = 5000 years

λ = 0.693/T_{1/2} = 0.693/5730 = 0.0001209424

Therefore;

A = 5 × e^(-0.0001209424×5000) = 2.7312 grams

Therefore, the amount of carbon 14 decayed in the 5000 years is the difference in mass between the starting amount and the amount left

The amount of carbon 14 decayed = 5 - 2.7312 = 2.2688 grams

The average yearly rate of change of carbon-14 during the first 5000 years  is therefore;

2.2688 grams/(5000 years) = 0.0004538 grams per year

The average yearly rate of change of carbon-14 during the first 5000 years = 0.0004538 grams per year.

What would be the mass of 9.03*10^21 molecules of hydrobromic acid
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

2.11 g hydrobromic acid (correct to 3SF)

Explanation:

Molecular formula of hydrobromic acid = C2H5BrO2

mass of C2H5BrO2 = 140.96g

Beginning with what we're given, 9.03*10^21 we then make a conversion by using Avegadro's number which is 6.02*10^23 per mole (Oct. 23 at 6:02 am is national mole day :) Then, we need to convert out of moles, 140.96g hydrombromic acid per mole.

It looks like this:

9.03*10^21 molecules • (1 mol C2H5BrO2 / 6.02*10^23 molecules) • (140g C2H5BrO2 / 1 mol) = 2.1144 g C2H5BrO2

A breathing mixture used by deep-sea divers contains helium, oxygen, and carbon dioxide. What is the partial pressure of oxygen
Kay [80]
Answer is: pressure of oxygen is 31,3 kPa.
The total pressure<span> of an ideal gas mixture is the sum of the </span>partial pressures<span> of the gases in the mixture.
p(mixture) = p(helium) + p(oxygen) + p(carbon dioxide).
p(oxygen) = p(mixture) - (p(helium) + p(carbon dioxide)).
p(oxygen) = 101,4 kPa - (68,7 kPa + 1,4 kPa).
p(oxygen) = 101,4 kPa - 70,1 kPa.
p(oxygen) = 31,3 kPa.
