Carbon-14 has a half-life of 5,730 years. It is used in "carbon dating" to determine the age of once living organisms. How much

Answer:

18 grams

Explanation:

Because 17,190 yrs divided by the amount of years it takes for a half-life to occur is 3. So 3 half life’s happen, so you divide 144/2 once, equaling 72. You divide 72/2 again (another half-life) and you get 36. You then calculate the third half life by dividing 36/2 which equals 18 grams.

An unknown compound has the following chemical formula:
Softa [21]

Answer:

Formula of the compound = P_2O_5

Explanation:

Given,

No. of mole of O = 8.20 mol

No. of mole of P = 3.30 mol

Chemical formula = P_2O_x

Ratio of P and O = \frac{2}{x}

\frac{2}{x} =\frac{3.3}{8.20} \\x \times 3.3 = 8.20 \times 2\\x = \frac{8.20 \times 2}{3.3} \\x=4.9969\\ = 5

formula of the compound = P_2O_5

Vikentia [17]
Let's go over the given information. We have the volume, temperature and pressure. From the ideal gas equation, that's 4 out of 5 knowns. So, we actually don't need Pvap of water anymore. Assuming ideal gas, the solution is as follows:

PV=nRT
Solving for n,
n = PV/RT = (753 torr)(1 atm/760 torr)(195 mL)(1 L/1000 mL)/(0.0821 L·atm/mol·K)(25+273 K)
n = 7.897×10⁻³ mol H₂

The molar mass of H₂ is 2 g/mol.

Mass of H₂ = 7.897×10⁻³ mol * 2 g/mol = <em>0.016 g H₂</em>
