Answer:

False.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, as the moles are held constant, one uses the Gay-Lussac's law in order to relate both the temperature and the pressure at the beginning and at the end of the experiment via the following relationship:

P_1T_2=P_2T_1

By solving for the pressure at the second (final) state we can substantiate whether the 1.5 atm are correct as shown below:

P_2=\frac{P_1T_2}{T_1}=\frac{3atm*293.15K}{313.15K}= 2.8 atm

Therefore, even when the pressure is correctly decreased, the given value is wrong as 2.8 atm is the correct final pressure, in this manner, the statement is false.

Best regards.

What is the half-life for the first order decay of 14C according to the reaction, 146C — 147N +e- ?
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

5727 years or 5730 (rounded to match 3 sig figs) whichever one your teacher prefers

Explanation:

First Order decay has a half life formula of Half Life = Ln (2) / k = 0.693/K

Half-life = 0.693/k = 0.693/1.21 x10-4 =  5727 years or 5730 (rounded to match 3 sig figs)

This should be correct because if you google the half-life of 14 C it is ~ 5700 years

The densevapor iodinee heptafluoride reacts rapidly with water to give a mixture of periodic acid and hydrofluoric acid .
erma4kov [3.2K]

Explanation:

When iodine heptafluoride reacts rapidly with water to give a mixture of periodic acid and hydrofluoric acid. Reaction equation for the same is as follows.

       IF_{7} + 6H_{2}O \rightarrow H_{5}IO_{6} + 7HF

As it is given that there are 3.72 \times 10^{-2} moles of iodine heptafluoride are present. Molar mass of IF_{7} is 259.9 g/mol. Molar mass of HIO_{4} is 227.94 g/mol and molar mass of HF is 20.01 g/mol.

Now, according to the reaction equation 3.72 \times 10^{-2} M IF_{7} gives 3.72 \times 10^{-2} M H_{5}IO_{6}.

Also, the volume is given as 795 ml or 0.795 L (as 1 mL = 0.001 L).

Hence, calculate the concentration of H_{5}IO_{6} into the solution as follows.

              Concentration = \frac{\text{no. of moles}}{volume}

                                      = \frac{3.72 \times 10^{-2}}{0.795 L}

                                      = 4.7 \times 10^{-2} mol/L

or,                                   = 0.047 M

Now, as 1 mol of IF_{7} produces 7 mol HF. So, 7 \times 3.72 \times 10^{-2} = 26.04 \times 10^{-2} M HF.

Therefore, concentration of HF will be calculated as follows.

             Concentration of HF = \frac{0.2604}{0.795}

                                              = 0.33 M

Thus, we can conclude that concentration of periodic acid is 0.047 M and concentration of hydrofluoric acid is 0.33 M.
