223Ra decays by alpha emission with a half-life of 11.43 days. For a 1.0g sample of 223Ra, after one half-life, what mass of 223

Ra remains? What has happened to the remaining mass?

Ray Of Light [21]3 years ago
6 0

Explanation:

The reaction that shows the alpha decay of ^{223}_{88}Ra is:

^{223}_{88}Ra\rightarrow ^{219}_{86}Rn+^{4}_{2}He

Half life is the time at which the concentration of the reactant reduced to half. So,

Mass\ of\ ^{223}_{88}Ra\ remained=\frac {Initial\ concentration}{2}=\frac {1.0\ g}{2}=0.5\ g

The remaining mass is converted to ^{219}_{86}Rn.

gThe mole fraction of potassium nitrate in an aqueous solution is 0.0194. The solution's density is 1.0627 g/mL. What is the mol
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

0.595 M

Explanation:

The number of moles of water in 1L = 1000g/18g/mol = 55.6 moles of water.

Mole fraction = number of moles of KNO3/number of moles of KNO3 + number of moles of water

0.0194 = x/x + 55.6

0.0194(x + 55.6) = x

0.0194x + 1.08 = x

x - 0.0194x = 1.08

0.9806x= 1.08

x= 1.08/0.9806

x= 1.1 moles of KNO3

Mole fraction of water= 55.6/1.1 + 55.6 = 0.981

If

xA= mole fraction of solvent

xB= mole fraction of solute

nA= number of moles of solvent

nB = number of moles of solute

MA= molar mass of solvent

MB = molar mass of solute

d= density of solution

Molarity = xBd × 1000/xAMA ×xBMB

Molarity= 0.0194 × 1.0627 × 1000/0.981 × 18 × 0.0194×101

Molarity= 20.6/34.6

Molarity of KNO3= 0.595 M

A compound consisting of B, N, and H undergoes elemental analysis. The % composition by mass is found to be 40.28% B, 52.20% N,
swat32

Empirical formula is the simplest ratio of components making up a compound.

The percentage composition of each element has been given

therefore the mass present of each element in 100 g of compound is

                      B                                   N                         H

mass          40.28 g                         52.20 g                 7.53 g

number of moles  

                 40.28 g / 11 g/mol      52.20 g / 14 g/mol    7.53 g / 1 g/mol

                = 3.662 mol                  = 3.729 mol             = 7.53 mol

divide the number of moles by the least number of moles, that is 3.662

                3.662 / 3.662              3.729 / 3.662              7.53 / 3.662

               = 1.000                           = 1.018                        = 2.056

the ratio of the elements after rounding off to the nearest whole number is

B : N : H = 1 : 1 : 2

therefore empirical formula for the compound is B₁N₁H₂          

that can be written as BNH₂
