Answer: In a chemical equilibrium, the forward and reverse reactions occur at equal rates, and the concentrations of products and reactants remain constant. At this point, when there is no further change in concentrations of reactants and products, the reaction is at equilibrium.

the density of aluminum is 2.70g/cm^3. a piece of aluminum foil has a volume of 54.0 cm^3. what is the mass of this piece of alu

Neporo4naja [7]

The mass of aluminium foil is calculated as follows
mass = density x volume
density = 2.70 g/cm^3
volume 54 cm^3
mass of aluminium foil is therefore = 2.70 g/cm^3 x 54 cm^3 =145.8 grams
cm^3 cancel out each other

The radioactive isotope of lead, Pb-209, decays at a rate proportional to the amount present at time t and has a half-life of 3.

Marina86 [1]

Answer:

Therefore it will take 7.66 hours for 80% of the lead decay.

Explanation:

The differential equation for decay is

$\frac{dA}{dt}= kA$

$\Rightarrow \frac{dA}{A}=kdt$

Integrating both sides

ln A= kt+c₁

$\Rightarrow A= e^{kt+c_1}$

$\Rightarrow A=Ce^{kt}$ [ $e^{c_1}=C$ ]

The initial condition is A(0)= A₀,

$\therefore A_0=Ce^{0.k}$

$\Rightarrow C=A_0$

$\therefore A=A_0e^{kt}$ .........(1)

Given that the $Pb_{209}$ has half life of 3.3 hours.

For half life $A=\frac12 A_0$ putting this in equation (1)

$\frac12A_0=A_0e^{k\times3.3}$

$\Rightarrow ln(\frac12)= 3.3k$ [taking ln both sides, $ln \ e^a=a$ ]

$\Rightarrow k=\frac{ln \frac12}{3.3}$

⇒k= - 0.21

Now A₀= 1 gram, 80%=0.8

and A= (1-0.8)A₀ = (0.2×1) gram = 0.2 gram

Now putting the value of k,A and A₀in the equation (1)

$\therefore 0.2=1e^{(-0.21)\times t}$

$\Rightarrow e^{-0.21t}=0.2$

$\Rightarrow -0.21t= ln(0. 2)$

$\Rightarrow t= \frac{ln (0.2)}{-0.21}$

⇒ t≈7.66

Therefore it will take 7.66 hours for 80% of the lead decay.

.500 mol of br2 and .500 mol of cl2 are placed in a .500L flask and allowed to reach equilibrium. at equilibrium the flask was f

Tasya [4]

Answer : The value of $K_c$ for the given reaction is, 0.36

Explanation :

Equilibrium constant : It is defined as the equilibrium constant. It is defined as the ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants.

The equilibrium expression for the reaction is determined by multiplying the concentrations of products and divided by the concentrations of the reactants and each concentration is raised to the power that is equal to the coefficient in the balanced reaction.

As we know that the concentrations of pure solids and liquids are constant that is they do not change. Thus, they are not included in the equilibrium expression.

The given equilibrium reaction is,

$Br_2(aq)+Cl_2(aq)\rightleftharpoons 2BrCl(aq)$
