It's true :) Hope that helps
Main advantages of DDT are the insecticide property and the knoledge about its chemical synthesis.
Explanation:
At that time in 1939 it was discovered that DDT have insecticide properties. It is a useful property because it allows inhibition of insects populations in large areas. Killing insects will reduce the diseases transmitted by them as typhus and malaria. More over you prevent the destruction of the agricultural crops by the harmful insects.
However the synthesis of the molecule was known way back in 1874. From that time it was plenty of time in which chemistry knowledge evolved so the synthesis at kilograms scale was implemented. High quantities of DDT molecule become available for the market so that in 1945 was available as agricultural insecticide.
It was discovered that DDT have bad effects for human health and also over time some insects developed resistance and their were not affected anymore by the molecule.
You may find the chemical structure of DDT in the attached figure.

Answer:
35750.4 Joules
Explanation:
Using the formula as follows;
Q = m × c × ∆T
Where;
Q = amount of heat (joules)
m = mass of substance (g)
c = specific heat capacity (J/g°C)
∆T = change in temperature (°C)
According to the provided information,
mass (m) = 320.0 grams
c = 4.2 J/g°C
∆T = (50.8°C - 24.2°C) = 26.6°C
Q = ?
Using; Q = m × c × ∆T
Q = 320 × 4.2 × 26.6
Q = 35750.4 J
Answer:
2578.99 years
Explanation:
Given that:
100 g of the wood is emitting 1120 β-particles per minute
Also,
1 g of the wood is emitting 11.20 β-particles per minute
Given, Decay rate = 15.3 % per minute per gram
So,
Concentration left can be calculated as:-
C left =
Where,
is the concentration at time t
is the initial concentration
Also, Half life of carbon-14 = 5730 years
Where, k is rate constant
So,
The rate constant, k = 0.000120968 year⁻¹
Time =?
Using integrated rate law for first order kinetics as:
So,
<u>t = 2578.99 years</u>
