Carbon-14 has a half-life of 5720 years and this is a first order reaction. If a piece of wood has converted 75% of the carbon-1

liraira [26]

Answer: 1145.8 years

Explanation:

Half-life of carbon-14 = 5720 years

First we have to calculate the rate constant, we use the formula :

$k=\frac{0.693}{5720\text{years}}$

$k=1.21\times 10^{-4}\text{years}^{-1}$

Now we have to calculate the age of the sample:

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 = $1.21\times 10^{-4}\text{years}^{-1}$

t = age of sample = ?

a = let initial amount of the reactant = 100 g

x = amount decayed = 75 g

a - x = amount left after decay process = 100 - 75 = 25g

Now put all the given values in above equation, we get

$t==\frac{2.303}{1.21\times 10^{-4}}\log\frac{100}{25}$

$t=1145.8years$

How does the properties of matter in liquid and gas state allow the Herons fountain to work?

Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

Heron's fountain is an hydraulic machine that works because or the pressure inside of the system. Water will flow from high gravitational potential energy to low gravitational potential energy. The two sides of the system will present different pressure because they have different fluids in it (water and air) and water pressure is higher than gas/air pressure, so it will flow.

It is important to take into account that the pressure in the columns is a function of the height of the fluid (water or air).

Explanation:

<u>The properties of liquid:</u>

- If a liquid is poured into a container, it will adapt to the container's shape

- In a liquid state, the molecules have a kinetic energy higher than in a solid state

- Liquid particles are not arranged in a regular way but they are very close to each other, that's why liquids have a definite volume.

- Force is spread in an even way through a liquid, so the liquid particles are displaced if an object is placed in it.

- Liquids, as solids, can't be compressed

<u>The properies of gas:</u>

- They are everywhere

- Gas molecules are disorganized and have a great deal of space between them

- Gas fill up any container and spread indefinitely

- Gas molecules have a high kinetic energy

- If gas is put under pressure, the space between particles will decrease and collisions between them will increase.

- If the temperature of the gas increases in a container, the pressure will increase; if the temperature decreases, the pressure sill decrease.

- It can be compressed

- Gas has no definite volume nor definite shape.

PLEASE HELPP ______ consist of one large main root with smaller roots branching off, while _____ consist of several main roots t

Kay [80]

fibrous roots; taproots

Explanation:

A taproot root consists of one large main root with smaller roots that branches off into the soil, while the fibrous roots consists of several main roots that branches off to form one mass of roots.

The root system in plants helps them to absorb water and other nutrients from the soil.
A taproot is much more like extension of stem that penetrates into the ground.
It tapers at the end with many other smaller roots branching and networking from it.
The fibrous root is a series of roots directly from the stem that independent of one another.
Roots are used by plants for anchorage into the soil.

In a first-order decomposition reaction, 50.0% of a compound decomposes in 10.5 min.

mihalych1998 [28]

In this reaction 50% of the compound decompose in 10.5 min thus, it is half life of the reaction and denoted by symbol $t_{1/2}$ .
