Answer:

C. Corrosive waste

Explanation:

Hydrochloric acid is formed when hydrogen chloride gas is dissolved in water. The gas is toxic when inhaled and dissolves very readily in water to form the acid.

Hydrochloric acid is a strong acid as it ionizes completely in aqueous solutions to produce chloride ions and hydronium ions.

The concentrated acid is very corrosive in that it dissolves many other substances. Therefore, great care must be taken when handling the concentrated form of the acid.

It poses an environmental hazard due to its corrosive nature. Also, in industries and science laboratories, concentrated hydrochloric acid can corrode metal pipes and should not be drained into pipes without first being diluted.

However, the acid is very important in many industrial as well as laboratory procedures.

the half life of I -137 is 8.07 days. if 24 grams are left after 40.35 days, how many grams were in the original sample?
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

768g

Explanation:

We can use to formula N(A) = N_0(\frac{1}{2})^\frac{t}{t_{1/2}} . Here, N(A) is the final amount. N0 is the initial amount. t is the time elapsed, and t_{1/2} is the half life. Plugging in, we get the answer above.

A sample of gas at 301 Kelvin and 1.5 atmospheres has a density of 3.90 g/L. What is the molar mass of this gas? Show all of the
meriva
PV = nRTP is pressure, V is volume in L, n is number of moles, R is the gas constant,and T is temperature in K

(1.5 atm)(1 L) = (n)(.08206)(301K)

n = .06 moles in one liter

If there are 3.9 grams in .06 moles then

1/.06 x 3.9 = 64.2 grams per mol
