3 0

Answer:

B

Explanation:

The general equation for the reaction of a carboxylic acid with an alkanol to form an ester is shown below;

RCOOH + ROH ------> RCOOR + H2O

Hence; the reactant carboxylic acid can only be the compound (CH3)2-CH-CH2-COOH in accordance with the general reaction equation shown above.

Hence the reaction is;

(CH3)2-CH-CH2-COOH + CH3-CH2OH -------> CH3CH2 OCO-CH2-CH-(CH3)2

Phosphorus-32 is radioactive and has a half life of 14.3 days. What percentage of a sample would be left after 12.6 days
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

There is 54.29 % sample left after 12.6 days

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Half life time = 14.3 days

Time left = 12.6 days

Suppose the original amount is 100.00 grams

Step 2: Calculate the percentage left

X = 100 / 2^n

⇒ with X = The amount of sample after 12.6 days

⇒ with n = (time passed / half-life time) = (12.6/14.3)

X = 100 / 2^(12.6/14.3)

X = 54.29

There is 54.29 % sample left after 12.6 days

What isotope is used for a standard for other atomic masses?
sergeinik [125]
Though the ratio of any two atom's masses was the same on either scale, it was horribly confusing, so in 1961, a compromise was reached. Instead of using either Hydrogen, or Oxygen as the standard, the isotope of Carbon<span> with 6 </span>protons<span> and 6 neutrons in its nucleus (</span>Carbon-12<span>) was given a mass of exactly 12.</span>
