Answer:
3
Explanation:
Applying,
= R/R'............... Equation 1
Where n' = number of halflives that have passed, R = Original atom of the substance, R' = atom of the substance left after decay.
From the question,
Given: R = 40 atoms, R' = 5 atoms
Substitute these values into equation 1
= 40/5
= 8
= 2³
Equation the base,
n' = 3
1.2 x 10^10 mm^3 is equivalent to 12.0 m^3
Answer:
[O₂(g)] = 0.0037M
Explanation:
2SO₂(g) + O₂(g) => 2SO₃(g)
Conc: [SO₂(g)] [O₂(g)] [SO₃(g)] and [SO₂(g)] = [SO₃(g)]
Kc = [SO₃(g)]²/[O₂(g)][SO₂(g)]² => Kc = 1/[O₂(g)] = 270 if [SO₂(g)] = [SO₃(g)]
∴ [O₂(g)] = (1/270)M = 0.0037M
Answer:
False
Explanation:
The octet rule forms the basis for chemical reactions. The octet rule states that; an atom is only stable when it has eight electrons around its outermost shell.
This implies that the driving force behind chemical reaction is the attainment of an octet structure(eight electrons in the outermost shell of each of the bonding atoms).
An atom that has only six electrons in its outermost shell is not yet stable according to the demand of the octet rule. Hence, the statement "chemical reactions happen and compounds form because they're trying to get 6 electrons in their outer orbitals" is false.
