Answer:
2.772 seconds
Explanation:
Given that;
t1/2 = 0.693/k
Where;
t1/2 = half life of the reaction
k= rate constant
Note that decomposition is a first order reaction since the rate of reaction depends on the concentration of one reactant
t1/2 = 0.693/2.5 x 10-1 s-1
t1/2= 2.772 seconds
Answer:
6 x 10⁵ kg Hg
Explanation:
The mass of mercury in the entire lake is found by multiplying the concentration of the mercury by the volume of the lake.
The volume of the lake is calculated in cubic feet:
V = (SA)x(depth) = (100mi²)(5280ft/mi)² x (20ft) = 5.57568 x 10¹⁰ ft³
Cubic feet are then converted to mL (1cm³=1mL)
(5.57568 x 10¹⁰ ft³) x (12in/ft)³ x (2.54cm/in)³ = 1.578856752 x 10¹⁵ mL
The mass of mercury is then found:
m = CV = (0.4μg/mL)(1g/10⁶μg)(1kg/1000g) x (1.578856752 x 10¹⁵ mL) = 6 x 10⁵ kg Hg
Answer:
When an element loses an electron, its oxidation number increases.
Explanation:
The oxidation number of an element indicates the hypothetical charge of an atom in a compound. It is hypothetical because, in the context of a compound, the elements may not necessarily be ionic. When the number of electrons associated with an atom changes, its oxidation number also changes. When an element loses an electron, its oxidation number increases.
The answer is 546K. If you need the answer in degrees Celsius you subtract 273 from 546 and get 273 degrees Celsius. I included how I got the answer in the photo below. Hope this helps!
Answer:
The new volume is 2.75L
Explanation:
This is another case of Charles Gay Lussac law, where the volume varies directly proportional to T°, if the pressure keeps on constant.
V₁ / T₁ = V₂ / T₂
25°C + 273 = 298K
55°C + 273 = 328K
2.5L / 298K = V₂ / 328K
(2.5L / 298K) . 328K = V₂
2.75L = V₂
