Answer anybody, confused

Two samples of the same compound are compared. what does the data represent? sample 1: 24.22 g carbon and 32.00 g oxygen sample

goblinko [34]

According to law of definite proportion:

In a compound, elements are always arranged in fixed ratio by mass.

Here, sample 1 has 23.22 g Carbon and 32.00 g Oxygen.

Converting mass into number of moles:

Molar mass of carbon is 12 g/mol and that of oxygen is 16 g/mol thus,

$n_{C}=\frac{m_{C}}{M_{C}}=\frac{24.22 g}{12 g/mol}\approx 2 mol$

Similarly, number of moles of oxygen will be:

$n_{O}=\frac{m_{O}}{M_{O}}=\frac{32 g}{16 g/mol}=2 mol$

The ratio of number of moles of carbon and oxygen will be:

$C:O=n_{C}:n_{O}=2:2=1:1$

Therefore, formula of compound will be CO.

Sample 2:

It has 36.22 g Carbon and 48.00 g Oxygen.

Converting mass into number of moles:

Molar mass of carbon is 12 g/mol and that of oxygen is 16 g/mol thus,

$n_{C}=\frac{m_{C}}{M_{C}}=\frac{36.22 g}{12 g/mol}\approx 3 mol$

Similarly, number of moles of oxygen will be:

$n_{O}=\frac{m_{O}}{M_{O}}=\frac{48 g}{16 g/mol}=3 mol$

The ratio of number of moles of carbon and oxygen will be:

$C:O=n_{C}:n_{O}=3:3=1:1$

The formula of compound will be CO.

Therefore, it is proved that carbon and oxygen are present in fixed ratios in both the samples.

Thorium-234 has a half-life of 24.1 days. How many grams of a 150 g sample would you have after 120.5 days?

chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

8.625 grams of a 150 g sample of Thorium-234 would be left after 120.5 days

Explanation:

The nuclear half life represents the time taken for the initial amount of sample to reduce into half of its mass.

We have given that the half life of thorium-234 is 24.1 days. Then it takes 24.1 days for a Thorium-234 sample to reduced to half of its initial amount.

Initial amount of Thorium-234 available as per the question is 150 grams

So now we start with 150 grams of Thorium-234

$150 \times \frac{1}{2}=24.1$

$75 \times \frac{1}{2} =48.2$

$34.5 \times \frac{1}{2} =72.3$

$17.25 \times \frac{1}{2} =96.4$

$8.625\times \frac{1}{2} =120.5$

So after 120.5 days the amount of sample that remains is 8.625g

In simpler way , we can use the below formula to find the sample left

$A=A_{0} \cdot \frac{1}{2^{n}}$

Where

$A_0$ is the initial sample amount

n = the number of half-lives that pass in a given period of time.

1: At which temperature would a reaction withΔH = -102 kJ/mol, ΔS = -0.188 kJ/(mol×K) be spontaneous? 2: At which temperature wo

Naddik [55]

Answer:

1: At temperatures below 542.55 K

2: At temperatures above 660 K

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the thermodynamic definition of the Gibbs free energy, it is possible to write the following expression:

$\Delta G=\Delta H-T\Delta S$

Whereas ΔG=0 for the spontaneous transition. In such a way, we proceed as follows:

1:

$0=\Delta H-T\Delta S\\\\T=\frac{-102kJ/mol}{-0.188kJ/mol-K} \\\\T=542.55K$

It means that at temperatures lower than 542.55 K the reaction will be spontaneous.

2:

$0=\Delta H-T\Delta S\\\\T=\frac{132kJ/mol}{0.200kJ/mol-K} \\\\T=660K$

It means that at temperatures higher than 660 K the reaction will be spontaneous.

Best regards!

Yes, and no. We all should know by know we do need the sun to survive, but we also need for energy is oxygen and the food we eat.
