Answer: assume pathogens are present and treat the samples accordingly
Explanation:
When investigators are unable to conclusively ascertain the source of a biological sample found at a crime scene, the correct thing to do is to treat it as if pathogens are present in it and handle it according to set rules on how to handle pathogens.
This is done to ensure that if a pathogen is indeed present, it would not cause a health emergency by infecting those who come in contact with the samples at the scene.
Answer : The mass of sodium bromide added should be, 18.3 grams.
Explanation :
Molality : It is defined as the number of moles of solute present in kilograms of solvent.
Formula used :
Solute is, NaBr and solvent is, water.
Given:
Molality of NaBr = 0.565 mol/kg
Molar mass of NaBr = 103 g/mole
Mass of water = 315 g
Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:
Thus, the mass of sodium bromide added should be, 18.3 grams.
The balanced equation for the neutralisation reaction is as follows
2H₃PO₄ + 3Mg(OH)₂ --> Mg₃(PO₄)₂ + 6H₂O
stoichiometry of H₃PO₄ to H₂O is 2:6
number of H₃PO₄ moles reacted - 0.24 mol
if 2 mol of H₃PO₄ form 6 mol of H₂O
then 0.24 mol of H₃PO₄ forms - 6/2 x 0.24 = 0.72 mol of H₂O
therefore 0.72 mol of H₂O are formed
Answer:
See Explanation
Explanation:
Given that;
N/No = (1/2)^t/t1/2
Where;
No = amount of radioactive isotope originally present
N = A mount of radioactive isotope present at time t
t = time taken
t1/2 = half life
N/1000=(1/2)^3/6
N/1000=(1/2)^0.5
N = (1/2)^0.5 * 1000
N= 707 unstable nuclei
Since the value of the initial activity of the radioactive material was not given, the activity of the radioactive material after three months is given by;
Decay constant = 0.693/t1/2 = 0.693/6 months = 0.1155 month^-1
Hence;
A=Aoe^-kt
Where;
A = Activity after a time t
Ao = initial activity
k = decay constant
t = time taken
A = Aoe^-3 *0.1155
A=Aoe^-0.3465
Answer:
The correct answer is 8.79 × 10⁻² M.
Explanation:
Based on the given information, the mass of NaI given is 4.11 grams. The molecular mass of NaI is 149.89 gram per mole. The moles of NaI can be determined by using the formula,
No. of moles of NaI = Weight of NaI/ Molecular mass
= 4.11 / 149.89
= 0.027420
The vol. of the solution given is 312 ml or 0.312 L
The molarity can be determined by using the formula,
Molarity = No. of moles/ Volume of the solution in L
= 0.027420/0.312
= 0.0879 M or 8.79 × 10⁻² M
