What is the melting point of stainless steel?

Mashcka [7]

<span>"Alloy additions also suppress (lower) the melting range. Pure iron (Fe) has a fixed melting point of 1535°C, chromium (Cr) 1890°C and nickel (Ni) 1453°C compared to a range of 1400-1450 °C for type 304 stainless steel."</span>

Radioactive cobalt-60 is frequently used in treating cancer. It took 24 years for a 10 gram sample to decay to 0.625 grams. What

-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

Half life is 6 years.

Explanation:

T½ = In2 / λ

Where λ = decay constant.

But N = No * e^-λt

Where N = final mass after a certain period of time

No = initial mass

T = time

N = 0.625g

No = 10g

t = 24 years

N = No* e^-λt

N / No = e^-λt

λ = -( 1 / t) In N / No (inverse of e is In. Check logarithmic rules)

λ = -(1 / 24) * In (0.625/10)

λ = -0.04167 * In(0.0625)

λ = -0.04167 * (-2.77)

λ = 0.1154

T½ = In2 / λ

T½ = 0.693 / 0.1154

T½ = 6.00 years.

The half life of radioactive cobalt-60 is 6 years

What is the equilibrium equation for the dissociation of formic acid in water? hcooh (aq) + h2o (l) ⇌ h3o+ (aq) + hcoo- (aq)?

Pani-rosa [81]

Formic acid when in water would dissociate into ions just like any acids. It would dissociate into the hydrogen ion and the formate ion. The equilibrium dissociation equation would be written as:

<span>HCOOH (aq) + H2O (l) ⇌ H+ (aq) + HCOO- (aq)

Formic acid is a weak acid which means that when in aqueous solution it does not completely dissociate into its corresponding ions. Only a certain amount that would be dissociated so in the solution there will be HCOOH, HCOO- and H+ molecules. It is also known as Methanoic acid and an important substance for the synthesis of a number of substances. It is naturally occurring in ants.</span>

The iodine "clock reaction" involves the following sequence of reactions occurring in a reaction mixture in a single beaker. 1.

Mars2501 [29]

C: 0.012 mol.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Start with 0.0020 moles of iodate ions ${\text{IO}_{3}}^{-}$ .

How many moles of iodine $\text{I}_2$ will be produced?

${\text{IO}_{3}}^{-}$ converts to $\text{I}_2$ in the first reaction. The coefficient in front of $\text{I}_2$ is three times the coefficient in front of ${\text{IO}_{3}}^{-}$ . In other words, each mole of ${\text{IO}_{3}}^{-}$ will produce three moles of $\text{I}_2$ . 0.0020 moles of ${\text{IO}_{3}}^{-}$ will convert to 0.0060 moles of $\text{I}_2$ .

How many moles of thiosulfate ions ${\text{S}_2\text{O}_3}^{2-}$ are required?

$\text{I}_2$ reacts with ${\text{S}_2\text{O}_3}^{2-}$ in the second reaction. The coefficient in front of $\text{I}_2$ is twice the coefficient in front of ${\text{S}_2\text{O}_3}^{2-}$ . How many moles of ${\text{S}_2\text{O}_3}^{2-}$ does each mole of $\text{I}_2$ consume? Two. 0.0060 moles of $\text{I}_2$ will be produced. As a result, $2 \times 0.0060 = 0.0120$ moles of ${\text{S}_2\text{O}_3}^{2-}$ will be needed.
