Answer:

12 grams

Explanation:

For any radioactive substance

the amount of substance left after n half life is given by = $x/2^n$

where x the original amount of substance.

____________________________________________

Half life of isotope Np-238 = 2 days

total no of days = 6

no of half life =total no of days/Half life of isotope Np-238 = 6/2 = 3

thus,

for our problem n = 3

initial amount of Np-238 = 96 grams

thus,

the amount of substance left after 3 half life = 96/2^3 = 96/8 = 12 grams.

Thus, 12 grams will be left after six days.

Un ácido nítrico tiene una densidad de 10% ,calcular el peso de 1000 centímetros cúbicos

devlian [24]

D = M/V
D = 0.10
V = 1000 cm^3

0.10 = M / 1000
M = 100

Porque la densidad es 10%, se puede usar 0.10 en este formulario para calcular el peso. No sé lo que es la unidad para el peso pero es 100.

When 61.6 g of alanine (C3H7NO2) are dissolved in 1150. g of a certain mystery liquid X, the freezing point of the solution is 2

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the given information:

TO start with the molarity of the solution:

$= \dfrac{61.6 \ g \times \dfrac{1 \ mol \ C_3H_7 NO_3}{89.1 \ g} }{1150 \ g \times \dfrac{1 \ kg}{1000 \g }}$

= 0.601 mol/kg

= 0.601 m

At the freezing point, the depression of the solution is $\Delta \ T_f = T_{solvent}- T_{solution}$

$\Delta \ T_f = 2.9 ^0 \ C$

Using the depression in freezing point, the molar depression constant of the solvent $K_f = \dfrac{\Delta T_f}{m}$

$K_f = \dfrac{2.9 ^0 \ C}{0.601 \ m}$

$K_f = 4.82 ^0 C / m}$

The freezing point of the solution $\Delta T_f = T_{solvent} - T_{solution}$

$\Delta T_f = 7.3^ 0 \ C$

The molality of the solution is:

$= \dfrac{61.6 \ g \times \dfrac{1 \ mol \ NH_4Cl}{53.5 \ g} }{1150 \ g \times \dfrac{1 \ kg}{1000 \g }}$

Molar depression constant of solvent X, $K_f = 4.82 ^0 \ C/m$

Hence, using the elevation in boiling point;

the Vant'Hoff factor $i = \dfrac{\Delta T_f}{k_f \times m}$

$i = \dfrac{7.3 \ ^0 \ C}{4.82 ^0 \ C/m \times 1.00 \ m}$

$\mathbf {i = 1.51 }$

Explanation:

With all the scaling up and design improvements, the flight range of the R-7 increased to an intercontinental distance from 330 kilometers for the V-2. The R-7 ended up looking oversized even next to its American contemporaries -- the Atlas and Titan ballistic missiles.

Which one of the following best represents the predicted approximate chemical shift and coupling:

mezya [45]

Answer:

C. 3.40 ppm, singlet

Explanation:

Given the information from the question .we have to select the best representation for represents the predicted approximate chemical shift and coupling for hydrogen(s). In this case, there is no neighboring hydrogen .Thus there won’t be any split .the best option answer is C. 3.40 ppm, singlet . Therefore the correct answer or option is C. 3.40 ppm, singlet.
