A boy found a solid metal box in his backyard. The box had been buried for so long, it was difficult to determine from what the box was made. The boy measured the box and found its volume (v) to be 17.63 cubic centimeters (cm3) and its mass (m) to be 158 grams (g). The boy knows the formula for density (D) is D = m/v. This table shows the density of several metals. DENSITY OF METALS *

D. tin​

A Boy Found A Solid Metal Box In His Backyard. The Box Had Been Buried For So Long, It Was Difficult

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Box is made up of copper, because density is 8.96  g/cm³.

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of box = 17.63 cm³

Mass of box = 158 g

Which metal box is this = ?

Solution:

First we will calculate the density of box then we will compare it with the density value of given metals.

d = m/v

d = 158 g/ 17.63 cm³

d = 8.96  g/cm³

The calculated density is similar to the given density value of copper thus box is made up of copper.

Two chemicals A and B are combined to form a chemical C. The rate, or velocity, of the reaction is proportional to the product of the instantaneous amounts of A and B not converted to chemical C. Initially, there are 100 grams of A and 50 grams of B, and for each gram of B, 2 grams of A is used. It is observed that 10 grams of C is formed in 7 minutes. How much is formed in 28 minutes? (Round your answer to one decimal place.) grams What is the limiting amount of C after a long time? grams How much of chemicals A and B remains after a long time? A grams B grams At what time is chemical C half-formed? t = min

Answers

Answer:

Follows are the solution:

Explanation:

A + B = C

Its response decreases over time as well as consumption of a reactants.  

r = -kAB

during response A convert into 2x while B convert into x to form 3x of C

let's  y = C

y = 3x

Still not converted sum of reaction  

for A: 100 - 2x

for B: 50 - x

Shift of x over time  

[tex]\frac{dx}{dt} = \frac{-k(100 - 2x)}{(50 - x)}[/tex]

Integration of x as regards t  

[tex]\frac{1}{[(100 - 2x)(50 - x)]} dx = -k dt\\\\\frac{1}{2[(50 - x)(50 - x)]} dx = -k dt\\\\\ integral\ \frac{1}{2[(50 - x)^2]} dx =\ integral [-k ] \ dt\\\\\frac{-1}{[100-2x]} = -kt + D \\\\[/tex]

D is the constant of integration

initial conditions: t = 0, x = 0

[tex]\frac{-1}{[100-2x]} = -kt + D \\\\\frac{ -1}{[100]} = 0 + D\\\\D= \frac{-1}{100}\\\\[/tex]

hence we get:

[tex]\frac{-1}{[100-2x]}= -kt -\frac{1}{100}\\\\or \\\\ \frac{1}{(100-2x)} = kt + \frac{1}{100}[/tex]

after t = 7 minutes , [tex]C = 10 \ g = 3x[/tex]

[tex]3x = 10\\\\x = \frac{10}{3}[/tex]

Insert the above value x into [tex]\frac{1}{(100-2x)}[/tex] equation [tex]= kt + \frac{1}{100}[/tex] to get k.  

[tex]\to \frac{1}{(100-2\times \frac{10}{3})} = k \times (7) + \frac{1}{100} \\\\ \to \frac{1}{(100- 2 \times 3.33)} = \frac{700k + 1}{100} \\\\ \to \frac{1}{(100-6.66)} = \frac{700k + 1}{100}\\\\ \to \frac{1}{93.34} = \frac{700k + 1}{100} \\\\[/tex]

[tex]\to 100 = 93.34(700k + 1) \\\\ \to 100 = 65,338k + 700 \\\\ \to 65,338k = -600 \\\\ \to k = \frac{-600}{ 65,338} \\\\ \to k= - 0.0091[/tex]

therefore plugging in the equation the above value of k  

[tex]\to \frac{1}{(100-2x)} = kt +\frac{1}{100} \\\\\to \frac{1}{(100-2x)} = -0.0091t + \frac{1}{100}\\\\\to \frac{1}{(100-2x)} = \frac{1 -0.91t}{100}\\\\\to \frac{1}{2(50-x)} = \frac{1 -0.91t}{100}\\\\\to \frac{1}{(50-x)} = \frac{1 -0.91t}{50}\\\\\to 50= (1-0.91t)(50-x)\\\\\to 50 = 50-45.5t-x-0.91tx\\\\\to x+0.91xt= -45.5t\\\\\to x(1+0.91t)= -45.5t\\\\\to x=\frac{-45.5t}{1+0.91t}[/tex]

Let y = C

, calculate C:

y = 3x

[tex]y =3 \times \frac{-45.5t}{1+0.91t}[/tex]

amount of C formed in 28 mins

[tex]x = \frac{-45.5t}{1+0.91t} ,[/tex] plug t = 28

[tex]\to x = \frac{-1274}{1+25.48} \\\\\to x = \frac{-1274}{26.48} \\\\\to x= -48.26[/tex]

therefore amount of C formed in 28 minutes is = 3x = 144.78 grams

C: [tex]y =3 \times \frac{-45.5t}{1+0.91t}[/tex]

y= 136.5 =137

Radioactive isotope X has a half-life of 500,000 years. This isotope may be found in some types of volcanic rocks. A particular sample of volcanic rock taken from a layer that covered up some of the earliest known human-like footprints contains 0.125 mg of isotope X. The volcanic rock sample originally contained 8.00 mg of isotope X. How long ago were these footprints made. I need the equation. Thanks. please I am stuck on this question. PLEASE

Answers

Answer: The footprints were made [tex]2.99\times 10^6years[/tex] years long ago.

Explanation:

Radioactive decay follows first order kinetics.

Half-life of isotope X= 500,000 years

[tex]\lambda =\frac{0.693}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}=\frac{0.693}{500000}=0.00000139year^{-1}[/tex]

The equation for first order kinetics is :

[tex]N=N_o\times e^{-\lambda t}[/tex]

N = amount left after time t  = 0.125 mg

[tex]N_0[/tex] = initial amount  = 8.00 mg

[tex]\lambda[/tex] = rate constant

t= time  

Putting the values we get:

[tex]0.125=8.00\times e^{- 0.00000139years^{-1}\times t}[/tex]

[tex]0.0156=e^{- 0.00000139years^{-1}\times t}[/tex]

[tex]t=2.99\times 10^6years[/tex]

The footprints were made [tex]2.99\times 10^6years[/tex] years long ago.

Answers

Answer:

Cl^- = 5.75

K^+ = 7.75

Explanation:

Now let us calculate the effective nuclear charge four K^+ and Cl^- from Slater's rule.

Given that Cl^- and K^+ has electronic configuration of; [Ne] 3s2 3p6 (they are isoelectronic species)

We compute S as follows;

For n - 2 level, S= 1

For n - 1 level, S= 0.85

For ns,np level S= 0.35

Note: S= screening or shielding constant

1s2, S=2 ×1 = 2

2s2 2p6, S= 8×0.85 = 6.8

3s2 3p6, S= 7 × 0.35 = 2.45

The electron under study is not considered hence seven out of eight electrons in the shell are considered

Hence

S= 2 + 6.8 + 2.45 = 11.25

Since Cl^- has 17 electrons;

Zeff(Cl^-) = 17 - 11.25 = 5.75

For K^+

Zeff = 19 - 11.25 = 7.75

Answers

Answer:

The expression of speed of light can be written as "c".

Explanation:

The speed of light is denoted by c. It is originated from the Latin word celeritas which means "speed".  Its value is 3×10⁸ m/s.

It is related to the frequency and wavelength as follow,

Speed of light = wavelength × frequency

c = λ × f

λ = c/f

This formula shows that both frequency ad wavelength are inversely related to each other.

Frequency is taken in Hz.

It is the number of oscillations, wave of light make in one second.

Wavelength is designated as "λ" and it is the measured in meter. It is the distance between the two crust of two trough.
