a sample that has a half life of 45 years take ____ for the count rate to drop from 600 cpm to 150 cpm

Bond [772]

Answer:

90yrs

Explanation:

Half life is the time taken for half of an original radioactive material to decay by half.

For the sample;

Half - life = 45yrs

Original amount = 600cpm

Start Number of atoms

0yrs 600cpm

First half life

45yrs 300cpm

Second half life

90yrs 150cpm

Assuming a car (with a 70-L) gas tank can hold approximately 50,000 (5.00 * 10^4) g of octane(C8H18) or 50,000 (5.00 * 10^4) g o

konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

- From octane: $m_{CO_2}=1.54x10^5gCO_2$

- From ethanol: $m_{CO_2}=9.57x10^4gCO_2$

Explanation:

Hello,

At first, for the combustion of octane, the following chemical reaction is carried out:

$C_8H_{18}+\frac{25}{2} O_2\rightarrow 8CO_2+9H_2O$

Thus, the produced mass of carbon dioxide is:

$m_{CO_2}=5.00x10^4gC_8H_{18}*\frac{1molC_8H_{18}}{114gC_8H_{18}}*\frac{8molCO_2}{1molC_8H_{18}}*\frac{44gCO_2}{1molCO_2} \\\\m_{CO_2}=1.54x10^5gCO_2$

Now, for ethanol:

$C_2H_6O+3O_2\rightarrow 2CO_2+3H_2O$

$m_{CO_2}=5.00x10^4gC_2H_6O*\frac{1molC_2H_6O}{46gC_2H_6O}*\frac{2molCO_2}{1molC_2H_6O}*\frac{44gCO_2}{1molCO_2} \\\\m_{CO_2}=9.57x10^4gCO_2$

Best regards.

8. Estimate the maximum volume percent of Methanol vapor that can exist at standard conditions. Vapor pressure = 88.5 mm Hg in a

sashaice [31]

Explanation:

Vapor pressure is defined as the pressure exerted by vapors or gas on the surface of a liquid.

It is known that at standard condition, vapor pressure is 760 mm Hg.

And, it is given that methanol vapor pressure in air is 88.5 mm Hg.

Hence, calculate the volume percentage as follows.

Volume percentage = $\frac{\text{given vapor pressure}}{\text{standard vapor pressure}} \times 100$

= $\frac{88.5}{760} \times 100$

= 11.65%

Thus, we can conclude that the maximum volume percent of Methanol vapor that can exist at standard conditions is 11.65%.

a. pH=2.07

b. pH=3

c. pH=8

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

pH=-log [H⁺]

a) 0.1 M HF Ka = 7.2 x 10⁻⁴

HF= weak acid

$\tt [H^+]=\sqrt{Ka.M}\\\\(H^+]=\sqrt{7.2.10^{-4}\times 0.1}\\\\(H^+]=8.5\times 10^{-3}\\\\pH=3-log~8.5=2.07$

b) 1 x 10⁻³ M HNO₃

HNO₃ = strong acid

$\tt pH=-log[1\times 10^{-3}]=3$

c) 1 x 10⁻⁸ M HCl

$\tt pH=-log[1\times 10^{-8}]=8$

Tamiku [17]

F₂ + 2 NaI → 2 NaF + I₂
<span>It is given that F₂ is light yellow / colorless in hydrocarbon solvent. The student combines Fluorine water with NaI in water. Then student adds pentane in the mixture of F₂ and NaI. After dissolution, solution was observed and a colorless pentane layer was seen. Alkanes are unreactive in nature. The C-H bond in alkane is difficult to break. whereas, F₂ is very reactive and reacts vigorously with alkanes in presence of light by free radical mechanism.It is given that the color of the solution is nearly colorless. F₂ when present in hydrocarbon solvent is light yellow/ colorless/ nearly colorless. Hence, F₂ is not reacting with hydrocarbon and there is no reaction taking place (No F</span>₂ is present<span>)</span>
