Answer: 2.58 days
Explanation:
Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:
where,
k = rate constant = ?
t = age of sample = 6 days
a = initial amount of the reactant = 1 g
a - x = amount left after decay process
= 0.2 g
a) to find the rate constant
b) for completion of half life:
Half life is the amount of time taken by a radioactive material to decay to half of its original value.
The half life is 2.58 days
Science is a continuous profession of study because new ideas are produced based on new evidence. Also, there are different topics of science such as climate change or new cures to different diseases.
Answer:
1) When 6.97 grams of sodium(s) react with excess water(l), 56.0 kJ of energy are evolved.
2) When 10.4 grams of carbon monoxide(g) react with excess water(l), 1.04 kJ of energy are absorbed.
Explanation:
1) The following thermochemical equation is for the reaction of sodium(s) with water(l) to form sodium hydroxide(aq) and hydrogen(g).
2 Na(s) + 2H₂O(l) ⇒ 2NaOH(aq) + H₂(g) ΔH = -369 kJ
The enthalpy of the reaction is negative, which means that 369 kJ of energy are evolved per 2 moles of sodium. The energy evolved for 6.97 g of Na (molar mass 22.98 g/mol) is:

2) The following thermochemical equation is for the reaction of carbon monoxide(g) with water(l) to form carbon dioxide(g) and hydrogen(g).
CO(g) + H₂O(l) ⇒ CO₂(g) + H₂(g) ΔH = 2.80 kJ
The enthalpy of the reaction is positive, which means that 2.80 kJ of energy are absorbed per mole of carbon monoxide. The energy evolved for 10.4 g of CO (molar mass 28.01 g/mol) is:
