If carbon-15 has a half-life of 2.5 seconds, % of the sample would still be

Chemistry
1 answer:
kramer3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

After 5 second 25% C-15 will remain.

Explanation:

Given data:

Half life of C-15 = 2.5 sec

Original amount = 100%

Sample remain after 5 sec = ?

Solution:

Number of half lives = T elapsed / half life

Number of half lives = 5 sec / 2.5 sec

Number of half lives = 2

At time zero = 100%

At first half life = 100%/2 = 50%

At second half life = 50%/2 = 25%

Thus after 5 second 25% C-15 will remain.

SEP Engaging in Argument A classmate claims that sodium is a significant
blondinia [14]

Sodium is not a macromolecule hence it does not contain any calories.

<h3>Does sodium contain calories?</h3>

The term  calorie is a unit of energy. We often us the term to describe the amount of energy that is contained in each kind of food. The higher the calories, the greater the energy that the food contains.

Calories can only be contained by macromolecules such as proteins, carbohydrates, fats etc. Sodium is not a macromolecule hence it does not contain any calories at all hence the classmate is wrong.

A student is determining the density of an unknown metal with a mass of 32.56 g. The student partially fills a graduated cylinde
xenn [34]

Answer:

The metal is Tin (Sn)

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mass of metal = 32.56 g

Volume of water = 14.78 mL

Volume of water + metal = 20.44 mL

Next, we shall determine the volume of the metal. This is illustrated below:

Volume of water = 14.78 mL

Volume of water + metal = 20.44 mL

Volume of metal =..?

Volume of metal = (Volume of water + metal) – (Volume of water )

Volume of metal = 20.44 – 14.78

Volume of metal = 5.66mL

Next, we shall determine the density of the metal.

Density of a substance is defined as the mass of the substance per unit volume of the substance. Mathematically, the density of a substance is expressed as:

Density = Mass / volume

With the above formula, we can obtain the density of the metal as follow:

Mass of metal = 32.56 g

Volume of metal = 5.66mL

Density =.?

Density = Mass /volume

Density = 32.56g/5.66mL

Density of the metal = 5.75g/mL

Comparing the density of the metal with standard density of elements, the metal is Tin (Sn)

How many atoms are found in 4.75 moles of Fe?
aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Explanation:

a)

Number of atoms = ?

moles of Fe = 4.75

-Use proportions to solve this problem

                            1 mol of Fe --------------------- 6.023 x 10²³ atoms

                          4.75 moles  ---------------------  x

                            x = (4.75 x 6.023 x 10²³) / 1

                            x = 2.86 x 10²⁴ / 1

  Number of atoms = 2.86 x 10²⁴

b)

Number of moles = ?

moles of 1.058 moles of H₂O

I think this question is incorrect, maybe you wish to know the number of atoms or grams of H₂O.

c)

Number of atoms = ?

moles of Fe = 0.759

                       1 mol of Fe ------------------ 6.023 x 10²³ atoms

                       0.759 moles ---------------  x

                        x = (0.759 x 6.023 x 10²³) / 1

                        x = 4.57 x 10²³ / 1

Number of atoms of Fe = 4.57 x 10²³ atoms

d)

Number of molecules = ?

moles of H₂O = 3.5 moles

                          1 mol of H₂O ------------------ 6.023 x 10²³ molecules

                         3.5 moles       ------------------   x

                          x = (3.5 x 6.023 x 10²³) / 1

                          x = 2.11 x 10²⁴ molecules

Number of molecules = 2.11 x 10²⁴
