What are the options? I can try to give you an answer if options are provided.
Answer:
330 mL of (NH₄)₂SO₄ are needed
Explanation:
First of all, we determine the reaction:
(NH₄)₂SO₄ + 2NaOH → 2NH₃ + 2H₂O + Na₂SO₄
We determine the moles of base:
(First, we convert the volume from mL to L) → 62.6 mL . 1L/1000 mL = 0.0626L
Molarity . volume (L) = 2.31 mol/L . 0.0626 L = 0.144 moles
Ratio is 2:1. Therefore we make a rule of three:
2 moles of hydroxide react with 1 mol of sulfate
Then, 0.144 moles of NaOH must react with (0.144 .1) /2 = 0.072 moles
If we want to determine the volume → Moles / Molarity
0.072 mol / 0.218 mol/L = 0.330 L
We convert from L to mL → 0.330L . 1000 mL/1L = 330 mL
Answer:
10.8 days (3 sig.figs.)
Explanation:
All radioactive decay is 1st order decay defined by the expression A = A₀e^-kt
which is solved for time of decay (t) => t = ln(A/A₀) / -k
A = final weight = 1.0 gram
A₀ = initial weight = 16.0 grams
k = rate constant = 0.693/t(1/2) = 0.693/2.69 days = 0.258 days⁻¹
t = ln(1/16) / -0.258da⁻¹ = (-2.77/-0.258) days = 10.74646792 days (calculator)
≅ 10 days (1 sig. fig. based on given 1 gram mass)
