Phosphorus-32 is radioactive and has a half life of 14.3 days. What percentage of a sample would be left after 12.6 days
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

There is 54.29 % sample left after 12.6 days

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Half life time = 14.3 days

Time left = 12.6 days

Suppose the original amount is 100.00 grams

Step 2: Calculate the percentage left

X = 100 / 2^n

⇒ with X = The amount of sample after 12.6 days

⇒ with n = (time passed / half-life time) = (12.6/14.3)

X = 100 / 2^(12.6/14.3)

X = 54.29

There is 54.29 % sample left after 12.6 days

For the reaction where Δn=−1Δn=−1 , what happens after in increase in volume? ????KQ>K so the reaction shifts toward reactant
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

Explanation:

In general, an increase in pressure (decrease in volume) favors the net reaction  that decreases the total number of moles of gases, and a decrease in pressure (increase in volume) favors the net reaction that increases  the total number of moles of gases.

Δn= b - a

Δn=  moles of gaseous products - moles of gaseous reactants

Therefore, <u>after the increase in volume</u>:

  • If Δn= −1 ⇒ there are more moles of gaseous reactants than gaseous products. The equilibrium will be shifted towards the products, that is, from left to right, and K>Q.
  • If Δn= 0 ⇒ there is the same amount of gaseous moles, both in products and reactants. The system is at equilibrium and K=Q.
  • Δn= +1 ⇒ there are more moles of gaseous products than gaseous reactants. The equilibrium will be shifted towards the reactants, that is, from right to left, and K<Q.
