Half-life is defined as the amount of time it takes a given quantity to decrease to half of its initial value. The equation to describe the decay is
Nt=N0(1/2)
where N0 is the initial quantity, Nt is the remaining quantity after time t, t1/2 is the half-time. So work out the equation, t1/2 = t (-ln2)/ln(Nt/N0) = 11.5*(-ln2)/ln(12.5/100) = 3.83 days
Answer:
0.35 atm
Explanation:
It seems the question is incomplete. But an internet search shows me these values for the question:
" At a certain temperature the vapor pressure of pure thiophene (C₄H₄S) is measured to be 0.60 atm. Suppose a solution is prepared by mixing 137. g of thiophene and 111. g of heptane (C₇H₁₆). Calculate the partial pressure of thiophene vapor above this solution. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits. Note for advanced students: you may assume the solution is ideal."
Keep in mind that if the values in your question are different, your answer will be different too. <em>However the methodology will remain the same.</em>
First we <u>calculate the moles of thiophene and heptane</u>, using their molar mass:
- 137 g thiophene ÷ 84.14 g/mol = 1.63 moles thiophene
- 111 g heptane ÷ 100 g/mol = 1.11 moles heptane
Total number of moles = 1.63 + 1.11 = 2.74 moles
The<u> mole fraction of thiophene</u> is:
Finally, the <u>partial pressure of thiophene vapor is</u>:
Partial pressure = Mole Fraction * Vapor pressure of Pure Thiophene
- Partial Pressure = 0.59 * 0.60 atm
16.4 grams is the mass of solute in a 500 mL solution of 0.200 M
.
sodium phosphate
Explanation:
Given data about sodium phosphate
atomic mass of Na3PO4 = 164 grams/mole
volume of the solution = 500 ml or 0.5 litres
molarity of sodium phosphate solution = 0.200 M
The formula for molarity will be used here to know the mass dissolved in the given volume of the solution:
The formula is
molarity = 
putting the values in the equation, we get
molarity x volume = number of moles
0.200 X 0.5= number of moles
number of moles = 0.1 moles
Atomic mass x number of moles = mass
putting the values in the above equation
164 x 0.1 = 16.4 grams
16.4 grams of sodium phosphate is present in 0.5 L of the solution to make a 0.2 M solution.
Answer:
16.6 g of Al are produced in the reaction of 82.4 g of AlCl₃
Explanation:
Let's see the decomposition reaction:
2AlCl₃ → 2Al + 3Cl₂
2 moles of aluminum chloride decompose to 2 moles of solid Al and 3 moles of chlorine gas.
We determine the moles of salt:
82.4 g . 1mol/ 133.34g = 0.618 moles
Ratio is 2:2. 2 moles of salt, can produce 2 moles of Al
Then, 0.618 moles of salt must produce 0.618 moles of Al.
Let's convert the moles to mass → 0.618 mol . 26.98g /mol = 16.6 g
