Answer:

The answer to your question is the original dose of Ba-142 was 1184 μg

Explanation:

Data

Total time = 1.25 hours

The Final amount of Ba = 9.25 μg

The Half-life of Ba = 10.6 minutes

Process

1.- Convert total time to minutes

                      1 h ----------------- 60 min

                       1.25 h ------------ x

                        x = 75 min

2.- Draw a table of this process

                   Final amount of Ba               Time

                           9.25                                 75 min

                           18.5                                  64.4 min

                           37                                     53.8 min

                           74                                     43.2 min

                          148                                     32.6 min

                          296                                    22  min

                          592                                    11.4 min

                         1184                                      0.8 min

How many atoms are found in 4.75 moles of Fe?
aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Explanation:

a)

Number of atoms = ?

moles of Fe = 4.75

-Use proportions to solve this problem

                            1 mol of Fe --------------------- 6.023 x 10²³ atoms

                          4.75 moles  ---------------------  x

                            x = (4.75 x 6.023 x 10²³) / 1

                            x = 2.86 x 10²⁴ / 1

  Number of atoms = 2.86 x 10²⁴

b)

Number of moles = ?

moles of 1.058 moles of H₂O

I think this question is incorrect, maybe you wish to know the number of atoms or grams of H₂O.

c)

Number of atoms = ?

moles of Fe = 0.759

                       1 mol of Fe ------------------ 6.023 x 10²³ atoms

                       0.759 moles ---------------  x

                        x = (0.759 x 6.023 x 10²³) / 1

                        x = 4.57 x 10²³ / 1

Number of atoms of Fe = 4.57 x 10²³ atoms

d)

Number of molecules = ?

moles of H₂O = 3.5 moles

                          1 mol of H₂O ------------------ 6.023 x 10²³ molecules

                         3.5 moles       ------------------   x

                          x = (3.5 x 6.023 x 10²³) / 1

                          x = 2.11 x 10²⁴ molecules

Number of molecules = 2.11 x 10²⁴

6 NaOH + 2 Al --> 2 Na3AlO3 + 3 H2 If you start with 258 g of Al, how many moles of Na3AlO3 can you make?
tatyana61 [14]

Solution :

Assuming all Al will be consumed in the reaction.

From the given equation, 2 mole of Al produce 2 mole of Na_3AlO_3.

So, 1 mole of Al produce 1 mole of  Na_3AlO_3.     .....statement 1)

Number of moles of Al in 258 gram of Al.

n = \dfrac{mass}{molar\ mass}\\\\n = \dfrac{258}{27}\ moles\\\\n = 9.556 \ moles

Therefore, from statement 1) number of moles of Na_3AlO_3 produced is also 9.556 moles.

Briefly explain two chemical tests which can be used to identify the formation of this compound as aldehyde or ketone.
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

The correct answer is :

1) Fehling's test,

2) Tollen's test

Explanation:

1. Fehling's Test is the test that confirms the presence of aldehydes by the Fehling solution that contain copper ion with tartrate ions in NaOH solution. The color of the solution is blue due to presence of copper ions. In this test aldehydes are confirmed by the reduction of the blue solution to a insoluble precipitate of copper oxide red color while in presence of ketones there is no change.

2. Tollen's test is also a test that help in identifying the presence of aldehyde as the Tollen's reagents oxidizes aldehydes where ketones as they lack hydrogen in them.

Thus, the correct answer is : 1) Fehling's test,

2) Tollen's test.
