Bond [772]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

90yrs

Explanation:

Half life is the time taken for half of an original radioactive material to decay by half.

For the sample;

    Half - life = 45yrs

  Original amount  = 600cpm

 

                 Start                                  Number of atoms    

                 0yrs                                                600cpm

                                   First half life

                 45yrs                                              300cpm

                                  Second half life

                 90yrs                                               150cpm

Determine Δngas for each of the following reaction:(b) 2PbO(s) + O₂(g) ⇄ 2PbO₂(s)
Elis [28]

2PbO(s) + O₂(g) ⇄ 2PbO₂(s)

Then Δngas = -1

<h3>What is Δngas?</h3>

The number of moles of gas that move from the reactant side to the product side is denoted by the symbol ∆n or delta n in this equation.

Once more, n represents the growth in the number of gaseous molecules the equilibrium equation can represent. When there are exactly the same number of gaseous molecules in the system, n = 0, Kp = Kc, and both equilibrium constants are dimensionless.

<h3>Definition of equilibrium</h3>

When a chemical reaction does not completely transform all reactants into products, equilibrium occurs. Many chemical processes eventually reach a state of balance or dynamic equilibrium where both reactants and products are present.

A kayak travels in a lake at an average speed of 35 m/min. If the perimeter of the lake
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer: 4 hours

Explanation:

It takes the kayak 1 minute to travel 35 meters.

Divide the total (8400m) by the amount of meters per minute (35m)

\frac{8400m}{35m} =240minutes

Now convert into hours. (Remember that 1h has 60min)

240min(\frac{1h}{60min})=4h

A 7.2 L balloon at 2 atm of pressure has its pressure reduced to 0.5 atm. What is the new size of the balloon, in liters?
alexgriva [62]

Explanation:

using Boyles law: which shows the relationship between pressure and volume, when temperature Is kept constant

P1V1 = P2V2

2 x 7.2 = 0.5 x V2

14.4 = 0.5 x V2

V2 = 14.4/0.5 = 28.8 L

Hence the new size of the balloon in litres is 28.8

How many molecules are in 49.0 g of H2SO4? Answer in units of molec.
Leokris [45]

Answer:

= 3.01× 10^{23} molecules.

Explanation:

1 mole of H_{2}SO_{4} - 98g

? moles of H_{2}SO_{4} - 49g

= 49 ÷ 98 = 0.5 moles of O2 in 49g.

But 1 mole of any substance = 6.023 × 10^{23} molecules

∴ 0.5 moles = 0.5 × 6.023 × 10^{23} molecules

= 3.01× 10^{23} molecules.
