The equilibrium constant for the reaction of carbon monoxide with water is 1.845. if 1.00 mol of each reactant is placed in a 2.
SpyIntel [72]
[CO] = 1 mol / 2L = 0.5 M

According to the equation:

and by using the ICE table:

             CO(g) + H2O(g) ↔   CO2(g) + H2(g)

initial     0.5            0.5                    0          0

change  -X              -X                   +X         +X
     
Equ       (0.5-X)       (0.5-X)                     X            X

when Kc = X^2 * (0.5-X)^2

by substitution:

1.845 = X^2 * (0.5-X)^2  by solving for X 

∴X = 0.26

∴ [CO2] = X = 0.26

Consider a 100-gram sample of radioactive cobalt-60.
svetlana [45]

It will take 5.2 years to decay.

The half life of cobalt-60 is 5.2 years. The half life is the time taken for the mass of the substance to decrease by a half.

here, the amount of remaining substance is 50%,

so, (\frac{1}{2} )^{n} = 0.5

n. log (0.5) = log (0.5)

n = 1

So it would take 1 half lives to decay this much, which is 1 x 5.2 which is 5.2 years.

what do you mean by radioactive decay ?

The process through which an unstable atomic nucleus loses energy via radiation is known as radioactive decay, also known as nuclear decay, radioactivity, radioactive disintegration, or nuclear disintegration. A material that has unstable nuclei is considered as radioactive.
