How much of 45 grams of pu 234 remains after 27 hours if it’s half life is 4.98 hours

Chemistry
1 answer:
nadya68 [22]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

1.07 g

Explanation:

Half-life of Pu-234 = 4.98 hours

Initially present = 45 g

mass remains after 27 hours = ?

Solution:

Formula

         mass remains = 1/ 2ⁿ (original mass) ……… (1)

Where “n” is the number of half lives

To find "n" for 27 hours

                          n = time passed / half-life . . . . . . . .(2)

put values in equation 2

                          n = 27 hr / 4.98 hr

                          n = 5.4

Mass after 27 hr

Put values in equation 1

          mass remains = 1/ 2ⁿ (original mass)

          mass remains = 1/ 2^5.4 (45 g)

          mass remains = 1/ 42.2 (45 g)

          mass remains =  0.0237 x 45 g

          mass remains =  1.07 g

In order to prepare 50.0 mL of 0.100 M NaOH you will add _____ mL of 1.00 M NaOH to _____ mL of water
FinnZ [79.3K]

The question requires us to complete the sentence regarding the preparation of a more dilute NaOH solution (0.100 M, 50.0 mL) from a more concentrated NaOH solution (1.00 M).

Analyzing the blank spaces that we need to fill in the sentence, we can see that we must provide the volume of the more concentrated solution and the volume of water necessary to prepare the solution.

We can use the following equation to calculate the volume of more concentrated solution required:

\begin{gathered} C_1\times V_1=C_2\times V_2 \\ V_1=\frac{C_2\times V_2}{C_1} \end{gathered}

where C1 is the concentration of the initial solution (C1 = 1.00 M), V1 is the volume required of the inital solution (that we'll calculate), C2 is the concentration of the final solution (C2 = 0.100 M) and V2 is the volume of the final solution (V2 = 50.0 mL).

Applying the values given by the question to the equation above, we'll have:

\begin{gathered} V_1=\frac{C_2\times V_2}{C_1} \\ V_1=\frac{0.100M_{}\times50.0mL_{}}{1.00M_{}}=5.00mL \end{gathered}

Thus, we would need 5.00 mL of the more concentrated solution.

Since the volume of the final solution is 50.0 mL and it corresponds to the volume of initial solution + volume of water, we can calculate the volume of water necessary as:

\begin{gathered} \text{final volume = volume of initial solution + volume of water} \\ 50.0mL=5.00mL\text{ + volume of water} \\ \text{volume of water = 45.0 mL} \end{gathered}

Thus, we would need 45.0 mL of water to prepare the solution.

Therefore, we can complete the sentence given as:

<em>"In order to prepare 50.0 mL of 0.100 M NaOH you will add </em>5.00 mL<em> of 1.00 M NaOH to </em>45.0 mL<em> of water"</em>

H2 + NO → H2O + N2<br><br><br> If 180.5 grams of N2 are produced, how many grams of H2 were reacted?
Lena [83]

Answer:

12.89 moles

Explanation:

Before we solve the question, we have to balance the equation of the reaction first. The balanced reaction will be:

2 NO + 2 H2→ N2 + 2 H2O

There are 180.5g of N2 produced, the number of produced in moles will be: 180.5g / (28g/mol)= 6.446 moles

The coefficient of H2 is two and the coefficient of N2 is one. Mean that we need two moles of H2 for every one mole of N2 produced. The number of H2 reacted will be: 2/1 * 6.446 moles = 12.89 moles

Which element would have the lowest electronegativity? (1 point)
lutik1710 [3]

The element which would have the lowest electronegativity is: an element with a small number of valence electrons and a large atomic radius.

Atomic radii can be defined as a measure of the size (distance) of the atom of a chemical element such as hydrogen, oxygen, carbon, nitrogen etc, typically from the nucleus to the valence electrons. The atomic radius of a chemical element decreases across the periodic table, typically from alkali metals (group one elements such as hydrogen, lithium and sodium) to noble gases (group eight elements such as argon, helium and neon). Also, the atomic radius of a chemical element increases down each group of the periodic table, typically from top to bottom (column).

Generally, atoms with relatively large atomic radii tend to have a low electronegativity, ionization energy and a low electron affinity.

Valence electrons can be defined as the number of electrons present in the outermost shell of an atom. Thus, number of valence electrons is typically used to determine the chemical properties of elements such as electronegativity.  

Electronegativity can be defined as the ability or tendency of the atom of an chemical element to attract any shared pair of electrons.

In conclusion, a chemical element that has small number of valence electrons and a large atomic radius would have the lowest electronegativity.
