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.

1. A student attempts to make a saline solution by adding salt to water. How much water did
dexar [7]

111.1 mL of water

Explanation:

Weight per volume concentration (w/v %) is defined as

weight per volume concentration = (mass of solute (g) / volume of solution (mL)) × 100

volume of solution = (mass of solute × 100) / weight per volume concentration

volume of solution = (1 × 100) / 0.9 = 111.1 mL

volume of water = volume of solution = 111.1 mL

Some fuel cells are powered by hydrogen. Scientists are looking into the decomposition of water (H2O) to make hydrogen fuel with
skad [1K]

A.  Decomposing water requires a high activation energy.

Explanation:

In decomposing water to release hydrogen gas to make fuel cells, the process requires a very high activation energy.

                             2H₂O ⇆ 2H₂  + O₂

 This is the overall reaction. O-H must be broken to release free hydrogen to produce hydrogen gas.

The O-H bond is a very strong force of attraction that requires a high activation energy to overcome.

  • The activation energy is the energy barrier that must be overcome before a reaction takes place.
  • The sun is a renewable source of energy.
  • Water decomposition produces useful oxygen gas needed by all life for cellular respiration.

What is the effect of this??
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

The wavelength is the distance between two adjacent wavefronts. ... If the wave crosses to the new medium at an angle (not 90 degrees), the change ... When light enters a more optically dense medium, it is refracted closer to the normal. the same as the critical angle, light will travel along the boundary of the 2 mediums.

What is the molar mass of H2(SO4)3?​
nalin [4]

Answer:

Explanation:

The molecular mass of C2H6 is approximately 30 or [(2 x 12) + (6 x 1)]. Therefore the molecule is about 2.5 times as heavy as the 12C atom or about the same mass as the NO atom with a molecular mass of 30 or (14+16).

The half-life of a first-order reaction is 13 min. If the initial concentration of reactant is 0.085 M, how long would it take u
olasank [31]

Answer: It will take 8.2 minutes until the concentration decreases to 0.055 M

Explanation:

The time after which 99.9% reactions gets completed is 40 minutes

Explanation:

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{a}{a-x}

where,

k = rate constant

t = age of sample

a = let initial amount of the reactant

a - x = amount left after decay process  

a) for completion of half life:

Half life is the amount of time taken by a radioactive material to decay to half of its original value.

t_{\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{0.693}{k}

k=\frac{0.693}{13min}=0.053min^{-1}

b)  Time taken for 0.085 M to decrease to 0.055 M

t=\frac{2.303}{0.053}\log\frac{0.085}{0.055}

t=8.2min

Thus it will take 8.2 minutes until the concentration decreases to 0.055 M
