Answer

% of C in C2H6= (2×12)/30×100=80%

% of H in C2H6= (3×2)/30×100=20%

Explanation:

2C+3H2-C2H6

nC=12, nH=1, nC2H6=30

2moles of C-1mole of C2H6

3moles of H-1 mole of C2H6

% of C in C2H6= (2×12)/30×100=80%

% of H in C2H6= (3×2)/30×100=20%

KIM [24]

<u>Answer:</u> The sample of Carbon-14 isotope will take 2377.9 years to decay it to 25 %

<u>Explanation:</u>

The equation used to calculate rate constant from given half life for first order kinetics:

t_{1/2}=\frac{0.693}{k}

where,

t_{1/2} = half life of the reaction = 5730 years

Putting values in above equation, we get:

k=\frac{0.693}{5730yrs}=1.21\times 10^{-4}yrs^{-1}

Rate law expression for first order kinetics is given by the equation:

k=\frac{2.303}{t}\log\frac{[A_o]}{[A]}

where,

k = rate constant  = 1.21\times 10^{-4}yr^{-1}

t = time taken for decay process = ? yr

[A_o] = initial amount of the sample = 100 grams

[A] = amount left after decay process =  (100 - 25) = 75 grams

Putting values in above equation, we get:

1.21\times 10^{-4}=\frac{2.303}{t}\log\frac{100}{75}\\\\t=2377.9yrs

Hence, the sample of Carbon-14 isotope will take 2377.9 years to decay it to 25 %

In a water molecule (H2O), the oxygen atom has two unshared pairs of electrons and two bonding pairs of electrons. How do the un
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

They reduce the bond angle to be slightly lower than the tetrahedral bond angle, approximately 104.45 degrees.

Explanation:

The unshared pair of electrons or lone pair electrons in order to have the minimum repulsion possible with each other pushes the other bonding pairs closer together making the bond angle smaller or bent.

The bond angle is slightly lower than the tetrahedral bond angle of 108 degrees, leaving the water molecule with a bent molecular geometry.

A. They are the most destructive earthquake waves.

D. They can move in a rolling pattern through rock, like an ocean  wave.

Explanation:

Surface waves are seismic waves that cause the most destruction during an earthquake.

Rayleigh waves are known to cause rolling pattern of rocks just like an ocean waves.

  • Seismic waves are elastic waves that notably transmits energy.
  • They usually accompany earthquakes.
  • There are two broad categories of these waves.
  • Surface and body waves.
  • Seismic surface waves are low frequency and long wavelength waves.
  • They travel very close to the surface.
  • They are made up of Love and Rayleigh waves.
  • Love waves travels laterally in a horizontal fashion.
  • Rayleigh waves rolls like ocean waves in the ground.
  • The bulk of the destruction caused during an earthquakes is due to these waves.
  • They are the last waves to arrive a seismic station

When is the Sun directly overhead in the continental United States?
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

C.

Explanation:

The sun is directly overhead at noon on the equator on the first day of spring, and on the first day of fall. You would have to be less than 23.5 degrees above or below the equator to have the Sun pass directly overhead. Therefore, it never occurs in the continental US.
