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.

Why do you think the molarity relationship is so important to the chemist?
Oksana_A [137]

There are two big advantages of using molarity to express concentration. The first advantage is that it's easy and convenient to use because the solute may be measured in grams, converted into moles, and mixed with a volume.


The second advantage is that the sum of the molar concentrations is the total molar concentration. This permits calculations of density and ionic strength

C12H26O + SO3+NaOH ----> C12H25NaSO4+ H2O
Vlad [161]

Answer:

We can solve this by the method of which i solved your one question earlier

so again here molar mass of C12H25NaSO4 is 288.372 and number of moles for 11900 gm of C12H25NaSO4 will be = 11900/288.372

which is almost = 41.26 moles

so to get one mole of C12H25NaSO4 we need one mole of C12H26O

so for 41.26 moles of C12H25NaSO4 it will require 41 26 moles of C12H26O

so the mass of C12H26O = 41.26× its molar mass

C12H26O = 41.26×186.34

= 7688.38 gm!!

so the conclusion is If you need 11900 g of C12H25NaSO4 (Sodium Lauryl Sulfate) you need C12H26O 7688.38 gm !!

Again i d k wether it's right or wrong but i tried my best hope it helped you!!
