How long will it take for a 750 mg sample of radium with a half life of 15 days to decay to exactly 68mg?

weqwewe [10]

Answer:

52 da

Step-by-step explanation:

Whenever a question asks you, "How long to reach a certain concentration?" or something similar, you must use the appropriate integrated rate law expression.

The i<em>ntegrated rate law for a first-order reaction </em>is

ln([A₀]/[A] ) = kt

Data:

[A]₀ = 750 mg

[A] = 68 mg

t_ ½ = 15 da

Step 1. Calculate the value of the rate constant.

t_½ = ln2/k Multiply each side by k

kt_½ = ln2 Divide each side by t_½

k = ln2/t_½

= ln2/15

= 0.0462 da⁻¹

Step 2. Calculate the time

ln(750/68) = 0.0462t

ln11.0 = 0.0462t

2.40 = 0.0462t Divide each side by 0.0462

t = 52 da

There are two binary compounds of mercury and oxygen. heating either of them results in the decomposition of the compound, with

grandymaker [24]

$\text{Hg} \text{O}$ and $\text{Hg}_{2} \text{O}$ .

Assuming complete decomposition of both samples,

$m(\text{Hg}) = m(\text{residure})$
$m(\text{O}) = m(\text{loss})$

First compound:

$m(\text{O}) = m(\text{loss}) = 0.6498 - 0.6018 = 0.048 \; g$
$m(\text{Hg}) = m(\text{residure}) = 0.6018 \; g$

$n = m/M$ ; $0.6498 \; g$ of the first compound would contain

$n(\text{O atoms}) = 0.048 \; g / 16 \; g \cdot mol^{-1}= 0.003 \; mol$
$n(\text{Hg atoms}) = 0.6018 \; g / 200.58 \; g \cdot mol^{-1}= 0.003 \; mol$

Oxygen and mercury atoms seemingly exist in the first compound at a $1:1$ ratio; thus the empirical formula for this compound would be $\text{Hg} \text{O}$ where the subscript "1" is omitted.
