Iodine-131 half life 8.040 how long will it take for a 40 gram sample of iodine-131 to decay to 0.75 grams

Chemistry

otez555 [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

To get this, we need to apply the general expression for half life decay:

N = N₀e(-λt)    (1)

Where:

N and N₀ would be the final and innitial quantities, in this case, masses.

t: time required to decay

λ: factor related to half life

From the above expression we need λ and t. To get λ we use the following expression:

λ = t₁₂/ln2   (2)

And we have the value of half life, so, replacing we have:

λ = 8.04 / ln2 = 11.6

Now, we can replace in (1) and then, solve for t:

0.75 = 40 exp(-11.6t)

0.75 / 40 = exp(-11.6t)

ln(0.01875) = -11.6t

-3.9766 = -11.6t

t = -3.9766 / -11.6

<h2>t = 0.34 days</h2><h2></h2>

Calculate the pOH of a solution if the concentration of hydroxide ions (OH-) is 1.9 x 10-5M?
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

9.28

Explanation:

pOH refers to a measure of hydroxide ions concentration. pOH tells about the alkalinity of a solution. If pOH is less than 7 then aqueous solutions are alkaline, acidic if pOH is greater than 7 and neutral if pOH is equal to 7.

Concentration of the hydroxide ions = 1.9 x 10-5 M

pH = -log(1.9\times 10^{-5})=4.72

pOH = 14 - pH

=14 - 4.72 = 9.28

Can you please help me?
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

60 moles of NaF

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:

Al(NO3)3 + 3NaF —> 3NaNO3 + AlF3

From the balanced equation above,

3 moles of NaF reacted to produce 1 mole of AlF3.

Therefore, Xmol of NaF will react to produce 20 moles of AlF3 i.e

Xmol of NaF = 3 x 20

Xmol of NaF = 60 moles

Therefore, 60 moles of NaF are required to produce 20 moles of AlF3.
