Why is the formula for CO2 Carbon Dioxide and not Monocarbon Dioxide? Explain.

Chemistry
1 answer:
bekas [8.4K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

If there is only one atom for the first element in the chemical formula, the prefix mono is typically omitted from the name. For example, CO is carbon monoxide, not mono carbon monoxide. ... Thus the chemical formula for carbon dioxide is CO2, not C1O2.

If the half-life of Carbon-14 is 5700 years, how many years would it take a sample to decay from 1 gram to 31.3 mg
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

28500 years

Explanation:

Applying,

A = A'(2^{x/y})............... Equation 1

Where A = Original mass of Carbon-14, A' = Final mass of carbon-14 after decaying, x = total time, y = half-life.

From the question,

Given: A = 1 g, A' = 31.3 mg = 0.0313 g, y = 5700 years.

Substitute these values into equation 1

1 = 0.0313(2^{x/5700})

2^{x/5700} = 1/0.0313

2^{x/5700}  = 31.95

2^{x/5700} ≈ 32

2^{x/5700} ≈ 2⁵

Equating the base and solve for x

x/5700 ≈ 5

x ≈ 5×5700

x ≈ 28500 years

If the point of the nail can be approximated as a circle with
maw [93]

Answer:

P = 795.77 Mpa

Explanation:

Given that,

Force exerted by the hammer, F = 10⁴ N

The nail can be considered as a circle with radius of 2\times 10^{-3}\ m

We need to find the pressure exerted on the wall. Pressure is equal to force acting per unit area. So

P=\dfrac{F}{A}\\\\P=\dfrac{10^4\ N}{\pi \times (2\times 10^{-3})^2}\\\\P=795774715.45\ Pa

We know that, 1 MPa = 1000000 Pa

So, P = 795.77 Mpa

So, the pressure exerted on the wall is 795.77 Mpa.
