Answer:

It will take 188.06 hours for the concentration of A to decrease 10.0% of its original concentration.

Explanation:

A → B

Initial concentration of the reactant = x

Final concentration of reactant = 10% of x = 0.1 x

Time taken by the sample, t = ?

Formula used :

A=A_o\times e^{-\lambda t}\\\\\lambda =\frac{0.693}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}

where,

A_o = initial concentration of reactant

A = concentration of reactant left after the time, (t)

t_{\frac{1}{2}} = half life of the first order conversion  = 56.6 hour

\lambda = rate constant

A=A_o\times e^{-(\frac{0.693}{t_{1/2}})\times t}

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get

0.1x=x\times e^{-(\frac{0.693}{56.6 hour})\times t}

t = 188.06 hour

It will take 188.06 hours for the concentration of A to decrease 10.0% of its original concentration.

What is the volume of 1.60 grams of O2 gas at STP? (5 points)
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

  • <u><em>1.12 liters</em></u>

Explanation:

<u>Calculating number of moles</u>

  • Molar mass of O₂ = 32 g
  • n = Given weight / Molar mass
  • n = 1.6/32
  • n = 0.05 moles

<u>At STP</u>

  • One mole of O₂ occupies 22.4 L
  • Therefore, 0.05 moles will occupy :
  • 22.4 L x 0.05 = <u><em>1.12 L</em></u>
