Answer: 11.2 days
Explanation:
Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:
where,
k = rate constant
t = age of sample
a = let initial amount of the reactant
a - x = amount left after decay process
a) for completion of half life:
Half life is the amount of time taken by a radioactive material to decay to half of its original value.
b) for completion of 75% of reaction
The time for which she has to perform the experiment is 11.2 days
Answer: -
15.55 M
35.325 molal
Explanation: -
Let the volume of the solution be 1000 mL.
Density of nitric acid = 1.42 g/ mL
Total Mass of nitric acid Solution = Volume of nitric acid x Density of nitric acid
= 1000 mL x 1.42 g/ mL
= 1420 g.
Percentage of HNO₃ = 69%
Amount of HNO₃ =
= 979.8 g
Molar mass of HNO₃ = 1 x 1 + 14 x 1 + 16 x 3 = 63 g /mol
Number of moles of HNO₃ =
= 15.55 mol
Molarity is defined as number of moles per 1000 mL
We had taken 1000 mL as volume and found it to contain 15.55 moles.
Molarity of HNO₃ = 15.55 M
Mass of water = Total mass of nitric acid solution - mass of nitric acid
= 1420 - 979.8
= 440.2 g
So we see that 440.2 g of water contains 15.55 moles of HNO₃
Molality is defined as number of moles of HNO₃ present per 1000 g of water.
Molality of HNO₃ =
= 35.325 molal
