the isotope 146c has a half life of 5730 years. what fraction of 146c in a sample with mass ,m, after 28650 years

Chemistry
1 answer:
defon2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

3.1% is the fraction of the sample after 28650 years

Explanation:

The isotope decay follows the equation:

Ln[A] = -kt + Ln[A]₀

<em>Where [A] could be taken as fraction of isotope after time t, k is decay constant and [A]₀ is initial fraction of the isotope = 1</em>

<em />

k could be obtained from Half-Life as follows:

K = Ln 2 / Half-life

K = ln 2 / 5730 years

K = 1.2097x10⁻⁴ years⁻¹

Replacing in isotope decay equation:

Ln[A] = -1.2097x10⁻⁴ years⁻¹*28650 years + Ln[1]

Ln[A] = -3.4657

[A] = 0.0313 =

<h3>3.1% is the fraction of the sample after 28650 years</h3>

A titration of 25.0 mL of a solution of the weak base aniline, C6H5NH2, requires 25.67 mL of 0.175 M HCl to reach the equivalenc
Lorico [155]

Answer:

a. 0.180M of C₆H₅NH₂

b. 0.0887M C₆H₅NH₃⁺

c. pH = 2.83

Explanation:

a. Based in the chemical equation:

C₆H₅NH₂(aq) + HCl(aq) → C₆H₅NH₃⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq)

<em>1 mole of aniline reacts per mole of HCl</em>

Moles required to reach equivalence point are:

Moles HCl = 0.02567L ₓ (0.175mol / L) = 4.492x10⁻³ moles HCl = moles C₆H₅NH₂

As the original solution had a volume of 25.0mL = 0.0250L:

4.492x10⁻³ moles C₆H₅NH₂ / 0.0250L = 0.180M of C₆H₅NH₂

b. At equivalence point, moles of C₆H₅NH₃⁺ are equal to initial moles of C₆H₅NH₂, that is 4.492x10⁻³ moles

But now, volume is 25.0mL + 25.67mL = 50.67mL = 0.05067L. Thus, molar concentration of C₆H₅NH₃⁺ is:

[C₆H₅NH₃⁺] = 4.492x10⁻³ moles / 0.05067L = 0.0887M C₆H₅NH₃⁺

c. At equivalence point you have just 0.0887M C₆H₅NH₃⁺ in solution. C₆H₅NH₃⁺ has as equilibrium in water:

C₆H₅NH₃⁺(aq) + H₂O(l) → C₆H₅NH₂ + H₃O⁺

Where Ka = Kw / Kb = 1x10⁻¹⁴ / 4.0x10⁻¹⁰ =

<em>2.5x10⁻⁵ = [C₆H₅NH₂] [H₃O⁺] / [C₆H₅NH₃⁺]</em>

When the system reaches equilibrium, molar concentrations are:

[C₆H₅NH₃⁺] = 0.0887M - X

[C₆H₅NH₂] = X

[H₃O⁺] = X

Replacing in Ka formula:

2.5x10⁻⁵ = [X] [X] / [0.0887M - X]

2.2175x10⁻⁶ - 2.5x10⁻⁵X = X²

0 = X² + 2.5x10⁻⁵X - 2.2175x10⁻⁶

Solving for X:

X = -0.0015 → False solution. There is no negative concentrations.

X = 0.001477 → Right solution.

As [H₃O⁺] = X, [H₃O⁺] = 0.001477

Knowing pH = -log [H₃O⁺]

pH = -log 0.001477

<h3>pH = 2.83</h3>

.) Neon and HF have approximately the same molecular masses. a.)Explain why the boiling points of Neon and HF differ b.)Compare
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

a) The magnitude of intermolecular forces in compounds affects the boiling points of the compound. Neon has London dispersion forces as the only intermolecular forces operating in the substance while HF has dipole dipole interaction and strong hydrogen bonds operating in the molecule hence HF exhibits a much higher boiling point than Ne though they have similar molecular masses.

b) The boiling points of the halogen halides are much higher than that of the noble gases because the halogen halides have much higher molecular masses and stronger intermolecular forces between molecules compared to the noble gases.

Also, the change in boiling point of the hydrogen halides is much more marked(decreases rapidly)  due to decrease in the magnitude of hydrogen bonding from HF to HI. The boiling point of the noble gases increases rapidly down the group as the molecular mass of the gases increases.

Elemental Li and Na are prepared by electrolysis of a molten salt, whereas K, Rb, and Cs are prepared by chemical reduction.(c)
pishuonlain [190]

Calcium is used to isolate Rb from molten RbX because calcium has a smaller atomic radius than rubidium.

A chemical element's atomic radius, which is typically the average or typical distance between the nucleus's core and the outermost isolated electron, serves as a gauge for the size of an atom. There are numerous non-equivalent definitions of atomic radius since the border is not a clearly defined physical entity. Van der Waals radius, ionic radius, metallic radius, and covalent radius are the four most frequently used definitions of atomic radius. Atomic radii are typically measured in a chemically bound condition since it is challenging to isolated individual atoms in order to measure their radii individually.
