What is the quantity of carbon-14 in a bone after 17,190 years if the initial mass of C-14 is 0.300 grams and the half-life is 5,730 years?

A.
0.038 g
B.
0.093 g
C.
0.281 g
D.
0.412 g

Answers

Answer 1

A. 0.038 g.

Explanation:

The decay of carbon-14 is a first order reaction.

The rate constant of the reaction (k) in a first order reaction = ln (2)/half-life = 0.693/(5730 year) = 1.21 x 10⁻⁴ year⁻¹.

The integration law of a first order reaction is:

kt = ln [Ao]/[A]

k is the rate constant = 1.21 x 10⁻⁴ year⁻¹.

t is the time = 17,190 years.

[Ao] is the initial concentration of carbon-14 = 0.300 g.

[A] is the remaining concentration of carbon-14 = ??? g.

∵ kt = ln [Ao]/[A]

∴ (1.21 x 10⁻⁴ year⁻¹)(17,190 years) = ln (0.300 g)/[A]

2.08 = ln (0.300 g)/[A]

Taking exponential for both sides:

8.0 = (0.300 g)/[A]

∴ [A] = 0.0375 g ≅ 0.038 g

A 240g hydrated sodium sulphide contains 162g of water of crystallisation. What is the correct molecular formula for this compound?
What is the answer and working

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

First of all, 1 mol of Sodium Sulphide has molecular mass of

S = 32

Na2 = 2*23 = 46

The formula of NaS is actually Na2S. It's molecular mass = 78

How many grams of Na2S are present

Grams present = 240 - 162 = 78 which is exactly 1 mol.

The remainder is water.

The molecular mass of water = 2 + 16 = 18

162 grams of water = 162/18 = 9 mols of water.

So the correct formula is Na2S*9H20

How many grams of solute is there in 250 mL of a 0.10M CaCl2 solution ?

Answers

Answer:

2.775 g

Explanation:

Given that;

Number of moles = concentration × volume

Concentration = 0.10M

Volume =250 mL

Number of moles = 250/1000 × 0.10

Number of moles = 0.025 moles

Also;

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Molar mass of CaCl2= 111 g/mol

Mass = Number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.025 moles × 111 g/mol

Mass= 2.775 g

Which statement is true?

A. In an exothermic reaction, the energy of the products is the same as the energy of the reactants.

B. In an endothermic reaction, the energy of the products is the same as the energy of the reactants.

C. In an endothermic reaction, the energy of the products is greater than the energy of the reactants.

D. In an exothermic reaction, the energy of the products is greater than the energy of the reactants.

Answers

Exothermic reaction is where there is release of energy during a reaction

The enthalpy of exothermic reaction is negative

The relation between energy of products, reactants and enthalpy of reaction is

Enthalpy of reaction =  sum of enthalpy of formation of products - sum of enthalpy of formation of reactants .

As enthalpy of reaction is negative, it means the enthalpy of products is less than the enthalpy of reactants  so answer is :

In an exothermic reaction the energy of the product is less than the energy of the reactants.

C.

An endothermic reaction is a reaction that absorbs heat from the surroundings. That means that the energy of the system must increase. Therefore, the answer must be C as the products should have higher energy than the reactants.

As a person BAC level increase it becomes difficult for them to judge their vehicle distances and speed

Answers

Answer:

TRUE

Explanation:

The blood alcohol content is also known as the blood alcohol level or the blood alcohol concentration. It is defined as the measurement of the alcohol intoxication in the body and is used for the legal or the medical purposes.

When the BAC increases in the person's body, the person started to loose clear vision, loss of short term memory, poor muscle coordination,  impaired perception and face difficulty in concentrating. Thus it becomes very difficult for a person to drive a car or ride a bike whose BAC has increased.

The driver cannot properly judge the distances between the vehicle and the speed of the vehicle.

Atom A and Atom B have the same number of protons and neutrons, but they do not have the same number of electrons. ASAP

Answers

Answer:

They will be considered ions of the same element.

Explanation:

Ions form from elements when they gain or loss an electron, causing the number of protons (positively charged) to be unequal to the number of electrons (negatively charged), resulting in a net charge.

If there are more electrons than protons (from an element gaining 1 or more electrons), the ion is negatively charged and is called an anion.

If there are more protons than electrons (via the loss of electrons), the ion is positively charged and is called a cation.

What volume of O2 is required to completely burn 15cm3 of pentane? Equation - C5H12 + O2 - CO2 + H2O.​

Answers

Answer:

The volume of [tex]\rm O_2[/tex] required would be [tex]120\; \rm cm^{3}[/tex], assuming that both the pentane and the [tex]\rm O_2\![/tex] in this question are ideal gases and are under the same temperature and pressure.

Explanation:

Balance the equation for the reaction:

[tex]\rm ?\; C_{5}H_{12} + ?\; O_2 \to ?\; CO_{2} + ?\; H_{2}O[/tex].

Start by setting the coefficient of the molecule with the largest number of atoms to [tex]1[/tex].

In the combustion of alkanes (including pentane,) consider setting the coefficient of the alkane to [tex]1\![/tex].

[tex]\rm 1\; C_{5}H_{12} + ?\; O_2 \to ?\; CO_{2} + ?\; H_{2}O[/tex].

Number of carbon atoms among the reactants: [tex]5[/tex].

Number of hydrogen atoms among the products: [tex]12[/tex].

By the conservation of atoms, there would need to be the same number of carbon and hydrogen atoms (along with the oxygen atoms) among the products.

Hence, the coefficient of [tex]\rm CO_2[/tex] would be [tex]5[/tex] while the coefficient of [tex]\rm H_2O[/tex] would be [tex]12 / 2 = 6[/tex].

[tex]\rm 1\; C_{5}H_{12} + ?\; O_2 \to 5\; CO_{2} + 6\; H_{2}O[/tex].

There would be [tex]5 \times 2 + 6 \times 1 = 16[/tex] oxygen atoms among the products. Also by the conservation of atoms, there would be the same number of oxygen atoms among the reactants.

Hence, the coefficient of [tex]\rm O_2[/tex] would be [tex]16 / 2 = 8[/tex].

[tex]\rm 1\; C_{5}H_{12} + 8\; O_2 \to 5\; CO_{2} + 6\; H_{2}O[/tex].

The ratio between the coefficient of [tex]\rm O_2[/tex] and [tex]\rm C_{5}H_{12}[/tex] in the balanced equation is:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{n({\rm O_2})}{n({\rm C_{5}H_{12}})} = \frac{8}{1} = 8[/tex].

In other words, it would take eight [tex]\rm O_2[/tex] molecules to react with one [tex]\rm C_{5}H_{12}[/tex] molecule.

Assume that both [tex]\rm O_2[/tex] and [tex]\rm C_{5}H_{12}[/tex] are ideal gases. Under the same temperature and pressure, the volume of the two gases would be proportional to the number of molecules in each gas:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{V({\rm O_2})}{V({\rm C_{5}H_{12}})} = \frac{n({\rm O_2})}{n({\rm C_{5}H_{12}})} = \frac{8}{1} = 8[/tex].

In other words, it would take [tex]8\; \rm cm^{3}[/tex] of [tex]\rm O_2[/tex] to react with [tex]1\; \rm cm^{3}[/tex] of [tex]\rm C_{5}H_{12}[/tex] under these assumptions. It would then take [tex]8 \times 15\; \rm cm^{3} = 120\; \rm cm^{3}[/tex] of [tex]\rm O_2\![/tex] to react with [tex]15\; \rm cm^{3}\![/tex] of [tex]\rm C_{5}H_{12}\![/tex].

Freezing point depression is:

B. When a substance drops in temperature until it freezes, then quickly rises in temperature but stays frozen.
C. When a substance does not need to be as cold as normal in order to freeze.
D. When a substance must be colder than normal in order to freeze.

Answers

Freezing point depression is when a substance must be colder than normal in order to freeze.

Freezing point is that temperature where a liquid substance becomes a solid i.e. freezes. Freezing point depression is the process whereby the temperature at which a substance freezes is lowered.

Freezing point depression often occurs when a solute is added to a solvent. This reduces its freezing point. Since temperature is reduced, in other words, this means that the substance must become colder than normal for it to start freezing.

Hence, freezing point depression is when a substance must be colder than normal in order to freeze.

B) It increases as you move left to right within a period and down a group on the periodic table. C) It increases as you move left to right within a period and up a group on the periodic table. D) It increases as you move right to left within a period and up a group on the periodic table.

Answers

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Metallic character decreases as you move across a period in the periodic table from left to right. This occurs as atoms more readily accept electrons to fill a valence shell than lose them to remove the unfilled shell. Metallic character increases as you move down an element group in the periodic table. This is because electrons become easier to lose as the atomic radius increases, where there is less attraction between the nucleus and the valence electrons because of the increased distance between them.
