elixir [45]

Answer:

0.269 g

Explanation:

Po_{210} ^{84}  ⟶  Pb_{206} ^{82}+  + He_{4} ^{2}

Data:

Half-life of  Po_{210} ^{84}  (T(1/2)) = 138.4 days

Mass of PoCl4 = 561 mg (0,561 g) and molecular weight of PoCl4 = 350. 79 g/mol  

Time = 338.8 days  

Isotopic masses  

Po_{210} ^{84} = 209.98 g/mol  

Pb_{206} ^{82} = 205.97 g/mol  

Concepts  

Avogadro’s number: This is the number of constituent particles that are contained in a mol of any substance. These constituted particles can be atoms, molecules or ions). Its value is 6.023*10^23.  

The radioactive decay law is  

N=Noe^(-λt)

Where:  

No = number of atoms in t=0

N = number of atoms in t=t (now) in this case t=338.8 days  

λ= radioactive decay constant  

The radioactive constant is related to the half-life by the next equation  

λ= \frac{ln 2}{t(1/2)}

so  

λ= \frac{ln2}{138.4 days}  =0,005008 days^(-1)

No (Atoms of  Po_{210} ^{84}  in t=0)

To get No we need to calculate the number of atoms of  Po_{210} ^{84}   in the initial sample. We have a sample of 0,561 g of PoCl4. If we get the number of moles of PoCl4 in the sample, this will be the number of moles of  Po_{210} ^{84}  in the initial sample.  

This is:

\frac{0,561 g of PoCl4}{350. 79 g of PoCl4 /mol} = 0,001599 mol of  PoCl4

This is the number of mol of  Po_{210} ^{84} in the initial sample.

To get the number of atoms in the initial sample we use the Avogadro’s number = 6.023*10^23  

0,001599 mol of  Po_{210} ^{84} * 6.023*10^23 atoms/ mol of  Po_{210} ^{84} = 9.632 *10^20 atoms of  Po_{210} ^{84}

Atoms after 338.8 days

We use the radioactive decay law to get this value  

N=Noe^(-λt)

N=9.632*10^20 e^(-0,005008 days^(-1) * 338.8 days) =1.765*10^20

This is the number of atoms of  Po_{210} ^{84} in the sample after 338.8 days has passed  

The number of atoms  Po_{210} ^{84} transformed is equal to the number of atoms of Pb_{206} ^{82}  produced.  

The number of atoms of Po_{210} ^{84} transformed is No - N  

9.632 *10^20 – 1.765 *10^20 = 7.866*10^20

So, 7.866*10^20 is the number of atoms of Pb_{206} ^{82} produced  

We can get the mass with the Avogadro’s number

(7.866*10^20 atoms of Pb_{206} ^{82} ) / ( 6.023*10^23 atoms of Pb_{206} ^{82} / mol of Pb_{206} ^{82} =  0.001306 moles of Pb_{206} ^{82}

This number of moles have a mass of:

(0,001306 moles of Pb_{206} ^{82} )* (205.97 g of Pb_{206} ^{82} /mol of Pb_{206} ^{82} ) = 0.269 g

Identify two ways that the rate of a chemical reaction could be increased
Svetlanka [38]
Increase the Surface Area of the Reactants. Increasing the surface area of the reactants increases the rate of the reaction. More surface area means more collisions of the reactant molecules and an increased rate of the reaction. This occurs when reactants are made to react in powdered form

- Explain how ionic bonds, covalent bonds, and metallic bonds each form and how.
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:  -Ionic bonds form when one atom provides electrons to another atom. Covalent Bonds: Covalent bonds form when two atom shares their valence electrons. Metallic Bonds: Metallic bonds form when a variable number of atoms share a variable number of electrons in a metal lattice.

-Covalent Bonds.

Covalent Compounds. Contain no metals and no ions. Covalent compounds contain nonmetals only.

Example:

Ionic Compounds. A metal with a non-metal. Doesn't use prefixes for naming. Name the metal and change the nonmetal ending to -ide.

Explanation: Ionic bonds form when a nonmetal and a metal exchange electrons, while covalent bonds form when electrons are shared between two nonmetals. An ionic bond is a type of chemical bond formed through an electrostatic attraction between two oppositely charged ions.
