What was the half-life of a new isotope?

Chemistry
1 answer:
REY [17]3 years ago
8 0
The half-life of any substance is the amount of time taken for half of the original quantity of the substance present to decay. The half-life of a radioactive substance is characteristic to itself, and it may be millions of years long or it may be just a few seconds.

In order to determine the half-life of a substance, we simply use:
t(1/2) = ln(2) / λ

Where λ is the decay constant for that specific isotope.

Determine the volume in mL of 0.242 M NaOH(aq) needed to reach the equivalence (stoichiometric) point in the titration of 46.79
Alla [95]

The volume (in mL) of 0.242 M NaOH solution needed for the titration reaction is 39.44 mL

<h3>Balanced equation </h3>

CH₃CH₂COOH + NaOH —> CH₃CH₂COONa + H₂O

From the balanced equation above,

  • The mole ratio of the acid, CH₃CH₂COOH (nA) = 1
  • The mole ratio of the base, NaOH (nB) = 1

<h3>How to determine the volume of NaOH</h3>
  • Volume of acid, CH₃CH₂COOH (Va) = 46.79 mL
  • Molarity of acid, CH₃CH₂COOH (Ma) = 0.204 M
  • Molarity of base, NaOH (Mb) = 0.242 M
  • Volume of base, KOH (Vb) =?

MaVa / MbVb = nA / nB

(0.204 × 46.79) / (0.242 × Vb) = 1

Cross multiply

0.242 × Vb = 0.204 × 46.79

Divide both side by 0.242

Vb = (0.204 × 46.79) / 0.242

Vb = 39.44 mL

Thus, the volume of NaOH needed for the reaction is 39.44 mL
