<span>We are given the initial amount of 1 million carbon-14 atoms and the final amount which is 1/16 of the current atmospheric 14C levels. Also, the half life of carbon is </span>5,750 years. WE can use the decay formula
Aₓ = A₀e^-(ln2/t1/2)t
1,000,000(1/16) = (1,000,000)e^-(ln2/5750)t
t = 23,000 years
Answer:
Explanation:
Salicylic Acid:
Salicylic Acid is an hydroxy acid that is found as a natural compound in plants. It's IUPAC name is 2-hydroxybenzoic acid. Salicylic acid has an odorless white to light tan solid color. It sinks and mixes very slow with water.
Acid: An acid is a substance that produce hydrogen ion or proton when dissolved in water
Base: A base is a substance that will neutralize an acid to yield salt and water
Conjugate Base: This is a substance formed when an acid loses an hydrogen ion or proton when it dissolved in water.
Conjugate Acid: This is a substance formed when a base accept a proton from from any acid, when it dissolved in water.
Reaction between salicylic acid and potassium hydroxide
HOC₆H₄COOH(aq) + KOH(aq) ⇄ HOC₆H₄COOK(aq) + H₂O(l)
Acid ⇒ HOC₆H₄COOH (salicylic acid)
Base ⇒ KOH (potassium hydroxide)
Conjugate acid ⇒ H₂O (water)
conjugate base ⇒ HOC₆H₄COOK ( 2-hydroxypotasium benzoate)
Consider the isomerization of butane with equilibrium constant is 2.5 .The system is originally at equilibrium with :
[butane]=1.0 M , [isobutane]=2.5 M
If 0.50 mol/L of butane is added to the original equilibrium mixture and the system shifts to a new equilibrium position, what is the equilibrium concentration of each gas?
Answer:
The equilibrium concentration of each gas:
[Butane] = 1.14 M
[isobutane] = 2.86 M
Explanation:
Butane ⇄ Isobutane
At equilibrium
1.0 M 2.5 M
After addition of 0.50 M of butane:
(1.0 + 0.50) M -
After equilibrium reestablishes:
(1.50-x)M (2.5+x)
The equilibrium expression will wriiten as:
![K_c=\frac{[Isobutane]}{[Butane]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=K_c%3D%5Cfrac%7B%5BIsobutane%5D%7D%7B%5BButane%5D%7D)

x = 0.36 M
The equilibrium concentration of each gas:
[Butane]= (1.50-x) = 1.50 M - 0.36M = 1.14 M
[isobutane]= (2.5+x) = 2.50 M + 0.36 M = 2.86 M
