Convert 25.4 grams of barium phosphate, Ba3(PO4)2 to formula units.

1 answer:

7 0

To solve this questions you first need to find the number of moles of barium phosphate you have. The molar mass of barium phosphate is 601.93g/mol.
24.4/601.83 = 0.0402 moles barium phosphate
Then you need to use avagadro’s number, 6.022 x 10^23, which is the number of molecules or formula units in a mole.

6.022 x 10^23 * 0.0402 = 2.42 x 10^22 formula units

Answer:

2000 years

Explanation:

A radioactive molecule will continuously decay and turn into another molecule. This nature of the radioactive molecule makes them can be used to estimate the age of an object. Half-life is the unit of time needed for radioactive molecules to decay to half of its mass. The formula for the mass remaining will be:

$N(t)= N_{0} (\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{t}{t_{1/2} } }$

Where

N(t)= number of the molecule remains

N0= number of molecule initially

t= time elapsed

t1/2= half time

We have all variable besides the half time, the calculation will be:

$N(t)= N_{0} (\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{t}{t_{1/2} } }$

$0.125= 1 (\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{6000}{t_{1/2} } }$

$(\frac{1}{8})= (\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{6000}{t_{1/2} } }$

$(\frac{1}{2})^3= (\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{6000}{t_{1/2} } }$

3= 6000/ (t1/2)

t1/2= 6000/3= 2000

The half-life is 2000 years

Naily [24]

I think the correct answer is A. If one body is positively charged and another body is negatively charged, free electrons tend to <span>move from the negatively charged body to the positively charged body. This happens because they have different charges and therefore electrons are more attracted to the positive or its opposite charge.</span>
