Electrons in the outermost shell of an atom that are available to bond with the electrons of other atoms are

Mashutka [201]

(Answer) (d) Chemical reaction rates vary with the conditions of the reaction, but nuclear decay rates do not.

Rate of a chemical reaction refers to rate of formation of products from reactions during a chemical reaction. The rates of chemical reactions depend on various factors such as temperature, pressure, concentration of reactants, presence of catalyst etc. For this reason, chemical reaction rates vary with the conditions of the reaction.

Nuclear decay rate refers to the constant ratio of the number of atoms of radioactive nucleus that decay during a certain interval of time to the total number of radioactive atoms at the beginning of the time interval. Nuclear decay rates are constant and do not vary with the conditions of the reaction.

3. Which one is part of the kinetic molecular theory? Yes = part of KMT, No = not part

lidiya [134]

Explanation:

a. Average kinetic energy is directly proportional to absolute Kelvin temperature of a gas.

Yes

b. There are no attractive forces and repulsive forces between gas molecules.

Yes

C. Atoms are neither created nor destroyed by ordinary chemical reactions.

No

d. The volume occupied by all of the gas molecules in a container is negligible compared to the volume of the container

Yes

The kinetic molecular theory is one of such theories used to explain the forces between molecules and the energy they posses.

According to the theory;

The temperature of gas is proportional to the average kinetic energy.
Molecules are independent of one another and the force of attraction and repulsion between them is negligible.
volume occupied by gases is negligible compared to the volume of the container.

Law of conservation of matter states that "atoms are neither created nor destroyed by ordinary chemical reactions".

If 12.5 grams of the original sample of cesium-137 remained after 90.6 years, what was the mass of the original sample?

myrzilka [38]

Answer:

Mass of original sample = 100 g

Explanation:

Half life of cesium-137 = 30.17 years

$t_{1/2}=\frac {ln\ 2}{k}$

Where, k is rate constant

So,

$k=\frac{\ln2}{t_{1/2}}$

$k=\frac{\ln2}{30.17}\ year^{-1}$

The rate constant, k = 0.02297 year⁻¹

Time = 90.6 years

Using integrated rate law for first order kinetics as:

$[A_t]=[A_0]e^{-kt}$

Where,

$[A_t]$ is the concentration at time t

$[A_0]$ is the initial concentration

Initial concentration $[A_0]$ = ?

Final concentration $[A_t]$ = 12.5 grams

Applying in the above equation, we get that:-

$12.5\ g=[A_0]e^{-0.02297\times 90.6}$

$[A_0]=\frac{12.5}{e^{-0.02297\times 90.6}}\ g=100\ g$

<u>Mass of original sample = 100 g</u>

Which of the following is true for the actual yield of a reaction?

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

It is always less than the theoretical yield

Explanation:

For many chemical reactions, the actual yield is usually less than the theoretical yield. This is due to possible loss in the process or inefficiency of the chemical reaction.

What would indicate that a physical change takes place when cooper is drawn into wire

amid [387]

Answer:

When a copper is drawn into wire the only change that occurs is change in its shape and size no change will take place into its composition that is the wires are still possessing the properties of copper metal. Thus, a physical change takes place when copper is drawn into wire.
