Answer:

4.71 g of sodium and 7.25 g of chlorine

Explanation:

<em>Note: The question is incomplete. the complete question is given below:</em>

<em>Two samples of sodium chloride with different masses were decomposed into their constituent elements. One sample produced 2.55 g of sodium and 3.93 g of chlorine. Being consistent with the law of constant composition, also called the law of definite proportions or law of definite composition, which set of masses could be the result of the decomposition of the other sample?</em>

<em>4.71 g of sodium and 3.30 g of chlorine</em>

<em>4.71 g of sodium and 7.25 g of chlorine</em>

<em>4.71 g of sodium and 1.31 g of chlorine</em>

<em>4.71 g of sodium and 13.7 g of chlorine</em>

The law of definite proportions states that all pure samples of a particular chemical compound contain the same elements combined in the same proportion by mass.

This means that irrespective of the source of any sample of a pure chemical compound, the constituents elements are always combined in the same mass ratio.

In the first sample, the mass ratio of Sodium to chlorine is given below:

mass of sodium = 2.55 g

mass of chlorine = 3.93 g

mass ratio; sodium to chlorine = 2.55 / 3.93 = 0.65

From the set of masses give above, we can determine the result of the decomposition of the second sample.

4.71 g of sodium and 3.30 g of chlorine

mass ratio; sodium to chlorine = 4.71 / 3.30 = 1.43

4.71 g of sodium and 7.25 g of chlorine

mass ratio; sodium to chlorine = 4.71 / 7.25 = 0.65

4.71 g of sodium and 1.31 g of chlorine

mass ratio; sodium to chlorine = 4.71 / 1.31 = 3.59

4.71 g of sodium and 13.7 g of chlorine

mass ratio; sodium to chlorine = 4.71 / 13.7 = 0.34

From the results above, the correct set of masses for the second sample is 4.71 g of sodium and 7.25 g of chlorine

GaryK [48]

Answer:

2.023 m^3 is the total displacement (volume) of the submarine.

Explanation:

Mass of water carried by submarine at 1000 ft depth = m = 2100 kg

The density of seawater at 1000 ft depth = d = 1033 kg/m^3

Volume of the water displaced = V= ?

Total displacement of the submarine = Volume of the water displaced = V

Density=\frac{Mass}{Volume}

V=\frac{m}{d}=\frac{2100 kg}{1033 kg/m^3}=2.023 m^3

2.023 m^3 is the total displacement (volume) of the submarine.

What is the age of mummified primate skin that contains 8.25% of the original quantity of 14C?
rjkz [21]

Answer:

20619.4793 years

Explanation:

The half life of carbon-14 = 5730 years

The formula for the half life for a first order kinetic reaction is:

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

Where,  

t_{1/2} is the half life

k is the rate constant.

Thus rate constant is:

5730 years=ln(2)/k

k = 1.21×10⁻⁴ years ⁻¹

Using integrated rate law as:

ln\ \frac {A_t}{A_0}=-k\times t

Where,

A_t is the concentration at time t

A_0 is the initial concentration

Given that the final concentration contains 8.25 % of the original quantity which means that:

\frac {A_t}{A_0}=0.0825

So,

ln(.0825)= -1.21×10⁻⁴×t

<u> t = 20619.4793 years</u>

<u></u>
