Answer:
The half-life time, the team equired for a quantity to reduce to half of its initial value, is 79.67 seconds.
Explanation:
The half-life time = the time required for a quantity to reduce to half of its initial value. Half of it's value = 50%.
To calculate the half-life time we use the following equation:
[At]=[Ai]*e^(-kt)
with [At] = Concentration at time t
with [Ai] = initial concentration
with k = rate constant
with t = time
We want to know the half-life time = the time needed to have 50% of it's initial value
50 = 100 *e^(-8.7 *10^-3 s^- * t)
50/100 = e^(-8.7 *10^-3 s^-1 * t)
ln (0.5) = 8.7 *10^-3 s^-1 *t
t= ln (0.5) / -8.7 *10^-3 = 79.67 seconds
The half-life time, the team equired for a quantity to reduce to half of its initial value, is 79.67 seconds.
The answer would be D. because when an acid and base mix the start to cancel each other out causing it to neutralize
