Protactinium has 516 years of half life how many decays will it go through to become 1/64th of the substance? ,

Chemistry

1 answer:

Ulleksa [173]3 years ago

6 0

Answer:

6 decays

Explanation:

Each half life period reduced the amount of substance by half

64 = 2⁶
1/64 = (1/2)⁶

So 6 of half life cycles or decays will go.

An outdoor grill has a propane (C3H8) tank that holds 4.8 L of gas at a pressure of 5.5 atm. If all of the gas is transferred in

shtirl [24]

Answer: 0.176 atm

Explanation: Solution attached:

Use Boyle's Law to find the new pressure of the gas.

P1V1 = P2V2

Derive for P2

P2 = P1V1 / V2

= 5.5 atm ( 4.8 L ) / 150 L

= 0.176 atm

For a gaseous reaction, standard conditions are 298 K and a partial pressure of 1 atm for all species. For the reaction 2 NO ( g

enyata [817]

Answer:

ΔG = -61.5 kJ/mol (Spontaneous process)

Explanation:

2 NO (g) + O₂ (g) ⇄ 2NO₂ (g)

Let's apply the thermodynamic formula to calculate the ΔG

ΔG = ΔG° + R .T . lnQ

We don't know if the gases are at equilibrium, that's why we apply Q (reaction quotient)

ΔG = - 69 kJ/mol + 8.31x10⁻³ kJ/K.mol . 298K . ln Q

How can we know Q? By the partial pressures (Qp)

P NO = 0.450atm

PO₂ = 0.1 atm

PNO₂ = 0.650 atm

Qp = [NO₂]² / [NO]² . [O₂]

Qp = 0.650² / 0.450² . 0.1 = 20.86

ΔG = - 69 kJ/mol + 8.31x10⁻³ kJ/K.mol . 298K . ln 20.86

ΔG = -61.5 kJ/mol (Spontaneous process)

Using the van der Waals equation, the pressure in a 22.4 L vessel containing 1.00 mol of neon gas at 100 °C is ________ atm. (a

svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is P = 1.357 atm

Explanation:

Data

Volume = 22.4 L

1 mol

temperature = 100°C

a = 0.211 L² atm

b = 0.0171 L/mol

R = 0.082 atmL/mol°K

Convert temperature to °K

Temperature = 100 + 273

= 373°K

Formula

$(P + \frac{a}{v^{2}} )(v - b) = RT$

Substitution

$(P + \frac{0.211}{22.4})(22.4 - 0.0171) = (0.082)(373)$

Simplify

(P + 0.0094)(22.3829) = 30.586

Solve for P

P + 0.0094 = $\frac{30.586}{22.3829}$

P + 0.0094 = 1.366

P = 1.336 - 0.0094

P = 1.357 atm
