Answer:

a. 9.2

b. 4.4

c. 6.3

Explanation:

In order to calculate the pH of each solution, we will use the definition of pH.

pH = -log [H⁺]

(a) [H⁺] = 5.4 × 10⁻¹⁰ M

pH = -log [H⁺] = -log 5.4 × 10⁻¹⁰ = 9.2

Since pH > 7, the solution is basic.

(b) [H⁺] = 4.3 × 10⁻⁵ M

pH = -log [H⁺] = -log 4.3 × 10⁻⁵ = 4.4

Since pH < 7, the solution is acid.

(c) [H⁺] = 5.4 × 10⁻⁷ M

pH = -log [H⁺] = -log 5.4 × 10⁻⁷ = 6.3

Since pH < 7, the solution is acid.

Carbon-14 has a half-life of 5,700 years.
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

3.106\ \text{g}

Explanation:

t_{1/2} = Half-life of carbon = 5700 years

t = Time at which the remaining mass is to be found = 10400 years

m_0 = Initial mass of carbon = 11 g

Decay constant is given by

\lambda=\dfrac{\ln2}{t_{1/2}}

Amount of mass remaining is given by

m=m_0e^{-\lambda t}\\\Rightarrow m=m_0e^{-\dfrac{\ln2}{t_{1/2}} t}\\\Rightarrow m=11e^{-\dfrac{\ln 2}{5700}\times 10400}\\\Rightarrow m=3.106\ \text{g}

The amount of the substance that remains after 10400 years is 3.106\ \text{g}.

How much time would it take for 5.2 x 10^5 atoms of fermium-253 (half-life 3 days) to decay to 6.5 x 104 atoms?
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

9 days, or 3 half-lives

Explanation:

5.2x10^5=520000

6.5x10^4=65000

65000/520000=1/8, or 3 half-lives

3x3=9 days

I'm not the greatest at Chem but this seems more like math than Chem :)
