Answer:

5.9405*10^14 Hz

Explanation:

Remember the equation c=v*λ

v=frequency

λ=wavelength

By manipulating the equation, we can get it in terms of frequency:

c/λ=v

Now convert wavelength to meters (1nm=m*10^-9)

5.05*10^-7m (2 decimal places were shifted to make the number between 1-10, hence the -7 exponent)

Use the manipulated equation:

(3.00*10^8)/(5.05*10^-7), which yields:

5.9405*10^14 Hz (or s^-1)

Iron-59 is a beta emitter with a half-life of 44.5 days. If a sample initially contains 180 mg of iron-59, how much iron-59 is l

Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

2.79 mg iron-59 is left in the sample after 267 days.

Explanation:

Given that:

Half life = 44.5 days

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

Where, k is rate constant

So,

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

$k=\frac {ln\ 2}{44.5}\ days^{-1}$

The rate constant, k = 0.0156 days⁻¹

Using integrated rate law for first order kinetics as:

$[A_t]=[A_0]e^{-kt}$

Where,

$[A_t]$ is the concentration at time t

$[A_0]$ is the initial concentration = 180 mg

Time = 267 days

So,

$[A_t]=180\ mg\times e^{-0.0156\times 267}$

$[A_t]=180\times e^{-0.0156\times 267}\ mg$

$[A_t]=2.79\ mg$

<u>2.79 mg iron-59 is left in the sample after 267 days.</u>

Which shows an isomer of the molecule below?

babunello [35]

Above question is incomplete. Complete question is attached below
.......................................................................................................................

Correct Answer: Option D i.e. CH3CH2CH2CH2CH3

Reason:
Isomers are the compounds having same molecular formula, but different structural formula.

The molecular formula of the compound is C5H12

The compound present is question (i.e. 2-methyl butane) and option D (n-pentane) has same molecular formula. Hence, they are isomers.

However, compound present in option A, is the same compound provided in question. Hence, it is not an isomer. Compounds reported in option B and C has one carbon atom less and more, respectively as compared to the compound reported in question. Hence, they are also not isomers.

Lena [83]

The majority of metals are found in ores.

But a few such as copper, gold, platinum, and silver frequently occur in the free state because they do not readily react with other elements.
