As soon as a living organism dies, it stops taking in new carbon. The ratio of carbon-12 to carbon-14 at the moment of death is the same as every other living thing, but the carbon-14 decays and is not replaced. The carbon-14 decays with its half-life of 5,700 years, while the amount of carbon-12 remains constant in the sample. By looking at the ratio of carbon-12 to carbon-14 in the sample and comparing it to the ratio in a living organism, it is possible to determine the age of a formerly living thing fairly precisely.

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

The presence of chloride ions in water can be established by adding dilute trioxonitrate V acid to a sample of the water in drops followed by aqueous silver trioxonitrate V.

If a white precipitate is formed, which is soluble in excess aqueous ammonia solution, then the presence of chloride ion in the water sample is ultimately confirmed.

A compressed gas cylinder is filled with 5270 g of argon gas. The pressure inside the cylinder is 2050 psi at a temperature of 1

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

A compressed gas cylinder is filled with 5270 g of argon gas.

The pressure inside the cylinder is 2050 psi at a temperature of 18C.

The valve to the cylinder is opened and gas escapes until the pressure inside the cylinder is 650. psi and the temperature are 26 C.

How many grams of argon remains in the cylinder?

Explanation:

First, calculate the volume of argon gas that is present in the gas cylinder by using the ideal gas equation:

Mass of Ar gas is --- 5270g.

The number of moles of Ar gas:

$Number of moles of Ar gas=\frac{given mass of Ar}{its atomic mass} \\ =\frac{5270g}{39.948g/mol} \\ =131.9mol$

Temperature T=(18+273)K=291K

Pressure P=2050psi

$2050* 0.0680atm\\\\=139.4atm\\$

Volume V=?

$PV=nRT\\139.4atm * V=131.9mol *0.0821L.atm.mol-1.K-1 * 291K\\=>V=\frac{131.9mol *0.0821L.atm.mol-1.K-1 * 291K}{139.4atm} \\=>V=22.6L$

Using this volume V=22.6L

Pressure=650psi=44.2atm

Temperature T= (26+273)K=299K

calculate number of moles "n" value:

$PV=nRT\\=>n=\frac{PV}{RT} \\=>n=\frac{44.2atm*22.6L}{0.0821L.atm.mol^-1K^-1* 299K} \\=>n=40.7mol$

Mass of 40.7mol of Ar gas:

$mass of Ar gas=number of moles * its atomic mass\\\\ =40.7mol* 39.948g/mol\\\\ =1625.8g$

Answer:

The mass of Ar gas becomes 1625.8g.

Noble gases

Explanation:

Electronic configuration 1s² 2s² 2p⁶

The element belongs to the group of the noble gases.

The noble gases have complete outer shell configuration of their atoms.
we can infer that the configuration above is for an element in the p-block because the last sub-level filled is the p-orbital.
The elements therefore belongs to the p-block
The block is from group 111A to O
Only the halogens and noble gases fits this picture from the option.
The outer most p-subshell have three orbitals requiring 6 electrons to fill them up.
This makes a complete and stable configuration.
The highest energy level of 2 is also made up of 8 electrons, an octet.
This is why we can conclude that they are noble gases.
