The amount remaining at the end of 5 half-lives is 7.81×10¹³ g

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

  • Half-life (t½) = 5730 years
  • Original amount (N₀) = 2.5×10¹⁵ g
  • Number of half-lives (n) = 5
  • Amount remaining (N) =?

The amount remaining can be obtained as follow:

N = 1/2ⁿ × N₀

N = 1/2⁵ × 2.5×10¹⁵

N = 1/32 × 2.5×10¹⁵

N = 0.03125 × 2.5×10¹⁵

N = 7.81×10¹³ g

Therefore, the amount remaining after 5 half-lives is 7.81×10¹³ g

An ideal gas is a gas. <br> Perfect<br> Theoretical<br> Real
dusya [7]

Answer:

An ideal gas is a theoretical gas composed of many randomly moving point particles that are not subject to interparticle interactions. The ideal gas concept is useful because it obeys the ideal gas law, a simplified equation of state, and is amenable to analysis under statistical mechanics.

Please help me, I really don't want to fail but I don't know how to do this
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

A)

<u>4, 7, 4, 6</u>

B)

<u>12 moles</u>

Explanation:

NH_{3}(g) + O_{2}(g) \: → NO_{2} + H_{2}O(g)

__↑______↑

8.00 mol | 14.00 mol

________________

NH_{3}(g) + O_{2}(g) \: → NO_{2} + H_{2}O(g)

You can turn this into a system of variables which are solvable.

To do this, create variables for the coefficients of each compound in the reaction respectively.

a(NH_{3}(g)) + b(O_{2}(g)) → \\c(NO_{2}) + d(H_{2}O(g))

Because to be balanced, the count of atoms in each element of the compound correspond to the coefficient of the variable in that compound so that the count of the left (reactant) side is set equal to the right (product) side.

a corresponds to the coefficient of the first compound, b corresponds to the coefficient of the second compound, c corresponds to the coefficient of the third compound, and d corresponds to the coefficient of the fourth compound.

(Reactant = Product)

Reactant: 1a [N] Product: 1c.

Reactant: 3a [H] Product: 2d.

Reactant: 2b [O] Product: 2c + 1d.

Thus the system is:

1a = 1c

3a = 2d

2b = 2c + 1d.

Then just use the substitution methods to solve.
