Flourine is found to undergo 10% radioactivity decay in 366 minutes determine its halflife​

Chemistry
1 answer:
yuradex [85]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

\boxed{\text{2408 min}}

Explanation:

The integrated rate law for radioactive decay is

\ln\dfrac{N_{0}}{N_{t}} = kt

1. Calculate the decay constant

\begin{array}{rcl}\ln \dfrac{100}{90} & = & k \times 366\\\\1.054 & = & 366k\\\\k & = & \dfrac{1.054 }{366}\\\\k & = & 2.879 \times 10^{-4} \text{ min}^{-1}\\\end{array}\\\\

2. Calculate the half-life

t_{\frac{1}{2}} = \dfrac{\ln2}{k}\\\\t_{\frac{1}{2}} = \dfrac{\ln2}{2.879 \times 10^{-4} \text{ min}^{-1}} = \text{2408 min}\\\\\text{The half-life for decay is } \boxed{\textbf{2408 min}}

Predict how many antacid tablets it would take to produce 120 mL of CO2 gas
Alja [10]
<span>The question does not mention the brand or size of antacid tablets, but some research in the internet shows that for a very common brand, Alka Seltzer, that it takes about 4 tablets to produces 60 mL of gas. So for 120mL it will take 120/60 x 4 or 8 tablets to produce 120 mL of CO2 gas.</span>

Calculate the mass (in grams) of 250mL of ether at 25 oC. The density of
leonid [27]
  • Volume=250mL
  • Density=0.71g/ml

\boxed{\sf Density=\dfrac{Mass}{Volume}}

\\ \sf{:}\implies Mass=Density(Volume)

\\ \sf{:}\implies Mass=0.71(250)

\\ \sf{:}\implies Mass=177.5g

The change in enthalpy is the change in heat energy of a reaction and is calculated by (Hint: Hess' Law): Group of answer choice
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

d. Sum of product enthalpies minus the sum of reactant enthalpies

Explanation:

The standard enthalpy change of a reaction (ΔH°rxn) can be calculated using the following expression:

ΔH°rxn = ∑n(products) × ΔH°f(products) - ∑n(reactants) × ΔH°f(reactants)

where,

ni are the moles of products and reactants

ΔH°f(i) are the standard enthalpies of formation of products and reactants

Answer:

Explanation:

Biodiversity is the variety and variability of life on Earth. Biodiversity is typically a measure of variation at the genetic, species, and ecosystem level. Terrestrial biodiversity is usually greater near the equator, which is the result of the warm climate and high primary productivity. Biodiversity is not distributed evenly on Earth, and is richest in the tropics. These tropical forest ecosystems cover less than 10 percent of earth's surface, and contain about 90 percent of the world's species. Marine biodiversity is usually highest along coasts in the Western Pacific, where sea surface temperature is highest, and in the mid-latitudinal band in all oceans. There are latitudinal gradients in species diversity. Biodiversity generally tends to cluster in hotspots, and has been increasing through time, but will be likely to slow in the future.
