Technetium-104 has a half-life of 18.0 minutes. How much of a 165.0 g sample remains after 36.0 minutes?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Mila [183]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

41.25g

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Half-life of Technetium - 104  = 18minutes

Mass = 165g

Unknown:

Mass of sample remaining after 36minutes = ?

Solution:

The half-life of a radioactive element is the time taken for half of the element to decay;

Now;

                Start           First half life              Second half-life

Time          0                      18min                        36min

 Mass       165g                 82.5g                        41.25g

Cyclohexane, a commonly used organic solvent, is 85.6% c and 14.4% h by mass with a molar mass of 84.2 g/mol. what is its molecu
puteri [66]

The molecular  formula of   organic solvent  is    <em>C6H12</em>


<h2>calculation</h2><h3>find the empirical formula first as in step 1 and 2</h3>

Step 1: f<em>ind the moles of C and H</em>

  • moles =  % composition/molar mass
  •       from periodic table molar mass of C= 12 g/mol while that of H= 1 g/mol
  • moles is  C is therefore = 85.6/12=  7. 13 moles
  •  moles of H=  14.4/1 - 14.4 moles

  Step 2:  <em>calculate the mole  fraction  by dividing each mole by smallest number of mole(7.13)</em>

  • that is C= 7.13/7.13 = 1

         H=  14.4/7.13 =2

the empirical formula is therefore = CH2

<h2>Then calculate the molecular formula from empirical formula</h2>

step 3: divide the  grams molar mass  by empirical formula mass

               empirical formula mass =  12+(1 x2) = 14 g/mol

    = 84.2/ 14 = 6

step 4: multiply  each of the subscript  within the empirical  formula with the value gotten in step 3

  • that is  [CH2]6 = C6H12  therefore the molecular formula = <u>C6H12</u>

Define radioactivity and write down properties of radioactive Ray's
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

So basically is just explain what radioacitvity and then radidoactive

Radioactivity is the spontaneous release of energy from an unstable atom to get to a more stable state. Ionizing Radiation is the energy that comes out of a radioactive atom. Radioactive isotopes are radioactive atoms of the same element that have different numbers of neutrons.

pav-90 [236]
The answer is the first option. Gas burning in an engine is an example of a chemical change. Chemical change is a change where the substance changes in identity or form new substances after undergoing a process. In this case, the gas reacts with oxygen forming combustion products, commonly carbon dioxide and water.
