In a chemical compound, would you expect an oxide ion to be joined with one atom of calcium or one atom of potassium? Why?

I know what you're asking but I don't think the question is stated properly. Technically, an atom will not join with an "oxide" ion; i.e., the oxide ion is an atom of oxygen to which two electrons have been added. An oxide ion will add to 2 K ions or 1 Ca ion. The K ion has lost just one electron so it takes two of them to equal the 2- charge on the oxide ion whereas the Ca ion has lost two electrons and it takes only one of them to equal the charge on the oxide ion.

The decomposition of carbon disulfide to carbon monosulfide and sulfur is first order with k=2.8 ×10^-7 at 1000°C .What is the h
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

2.5×10⁶ s

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Rate constant (K) = 2.8×10¯⁷ s¯¹

Half-life (t½) =?

The half-life of a first order reaction is given by:

Half-life (t½) = 0.693 / Rate constant (K)

t½ = 0.693 / K

With the above formula, we can obtain the half-life of the reaction as follow:

Rate constant (K) = 2.8×10¯⁷ s¯¹

Half-life (t½) =?

t½ = 0.693 / K

t½ = 0.693 / 2.8×10¯⁷

t½ = 2.5×10⁶ s

Therefore, the half-life of the reaction is 2.5×10⁶ s
