Answer:

91.16% has decayed & 8.84% remains

Explanation:

A = A₀e⁻ᵏᵗ => ln(A/A₀) = ln(e⁻ᵏᵗ) => lnA - lnA₀ = -kt => lnA = lnA₀ - kt

Rate Constant (k) = 0.693/half-life = 0.693/10³yrs = 6.93 x 10ˉ⁴yrsˉ¹

Time (t) = 1000yrs  

A = fraction of nuclide remaining after 1000yrs

A₀ = original amount of nuclide = 1.00 (= 100%)  

lnA = lnA₀ - kt

lnA = ln(1) – (6.93 x 10ˉ⁴yrsˉ¹)(3500yrs) = -2.426

A = eˉ²∙⁴²⁶ = 0.0884 = fraction of nuclide remaining after 3500 years

Amount of nuclide decayed = 1 – 0.0884 = 0.9116 or 91.16% has decayed.

What is the limiting reactant in the following equation? How much Fe2O3 will be produced if 2.1 g of Fe with 2.1 g of O2?
Verizon [17]

Answer:

Fe is limiting, and it will produce .0188 mols of Fe2O3

Explanation:

after you convert both Fe and O2 to mols by using their molar mass, you see there is less Fe than O2 so that is your limiting reactant. To find the amount of Fe2O3 you devide the limiting reactant by it's coefeciant (4) then multiply it by the products coefficant (2). Let me know if you have any questions

Calculate the density of an object with a mass of 220 and a volume of 145mL.
LiRa [457]

Answer:

1.52 g/mL

Explanation:

The formula for finding the density of an object is d = m/v, or density = mass divided by volume.

Therefore, we can input the two values and solve for d.

d = 220/145

d = 44/29

d ≈ 1.52 g/mL

In the hydrogenation of ethylene using a nickel catalyst, the initial concentration of ethylene is 2.00mol?L?1 and its rate cons
gavmur [86]

Answer:

The rate of reaction of a zero-order reaction  is 0.0020 mol/L.

Explanation:

The rate expression of the zero order kinetic are :

R=k[A]^o

[A]= initial concentration of reactant

k = rate constant

R = rate of reaction

We have :

Rate constant of the reaction , k = 0.0020 mol/L s

R=0.0020 mol/L s\times 1

R = 0.0020 mol/L s

The rate of reaction of a zero-order reaction  is 0.0020 mol/L.
