Answer:

m=0.127g

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for a first-order reaction, we can firstly compute the rate constant from the given half-life:

k=\frac{ln(2)}{t_{1/2}} =\frac{ln(2)}{55.6s}=0.0125s^{-1}

In such a way, the integrated first-order law, allows us to compute the final mass of the substance once 10.0 minutes (600 seconds) have passed:

m=m_0*exp(-kt)=230.0g*exp(-0.0125s^{-1}*600s)\\\\m=0.127g

Best regards.

Which is a cause of polarity in water molecules? partial negative charge on the hydrogen atoms partial positive charge on the ox
Tamiku [17]

Explanation:

Water is a polar solvent as the hydrogen and oxygen atom has large difference in their electronegativities.

Oxygen atom is highly electronegative as compared to hydrogen atom therefore, it pulls the electrons of hydrogen atom closer towards itself.

As a result, two poles will create forming a partial positive charge on the hydrogen atom and partial negative charge on the oxygen atom.

Thus, we can conclude that high electronegativity difference between oxygen and hydrogen is the cause of polarity in water molecules.

NEED HELP! what is a orbital . describe
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

In chemistry and quantum mechanics, an orbital is a mathematical function that describes the wave-like behavior of an electron, electron pair, or (less commonly) nucleons. An orbital can contain two electrons with paired spins and is often associated with a specific region of an atom.
