Answer:
18.94%.
Explanation:
- The decay of carbon-14 is a first order reaction.
- The rate constant of the reaction (k) in a first order reaction = ln (2)/half-life = 0.693/(5730 year) = 1.21 x 10⁻⁴ year⁻¹.
- The integration law of a first order reaction is:
<em>kt = ln [A₀]/[A]</em>
k is the rate constant = 1.21 x 10⁻⁴ year⁻¹.
t is the time = 13,750 years.
[A₀] is the initial percentage of carbon-14 = 100.0 %.
[A] is the remaining percentage of carbon-14 = ??? %.
∵ kt = ln [Ao]/[A]
∴ (1.21 x 10⁻⁴ year⁻¹)(13,750 years) = ln (100.0%)/[A]
1.664 = ln (100.0%)/[A]
Taking exponential for both sides:
5.279 = (100.0%)/[A]
<em>∴ [A]</em> = (100.0%)/5.279 = <em>18.94%.</em>
Answer:
Formation of intermolecular hydrogen bonding between water molecules and molecules of n-butanol
Explanation:
Low molecular weight alcohols are miscible with water in all proportions. The reason for this is that, when a low molecular weight alcohol is dissolved in water, intermolecular hydrogen bonds are formed between the low molecular weight alcohol and water molecules.
Low molecular weight alcohols such as n-butanol contain the polar -OH group which interacts with water via hydrogen bonding.
Answer:
Scientists have been debating over light being a wave or particle since its recognition.
Sir Issac Newton discovered that light had frequency and other properties. Newton described light to be a particle because it created shadows which were sharp and very clear.
Francesco Maria Grimaldi, claimed that light was a wave. This was because this scientist observed the diffraction of light and hence, claimed light to be a type of wave.
The speed of light is 299 792 458 m / s. Nothing can travel faster than light.
Answer:
A fire extinguisher
Explanation:
A lab station usually contains equipment for the people working at the station to use. However, most rooms will only have one fire extinguisher for the whole room meaning it would most likely be located somewhere that is easy to access by all and not just a singular lab station.
