How much radium-226 will remain from a 20 gram sample after 4800 years?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

2.5 g mass of Ra-226 will remain after 4800 years.

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of Ra-226 = 20 g

Sample remain after 4800 years = ?

Solution:

Half life of Ra-226 = 1600 years

Number of half lives passed = T elapsed / half life

Number of half lives passed = 4800 year / 1600 year

Number of half lives passed = 3

At time zero = 20 g

At first half life = 20 g/2 = 10 g

At 2nd half life = 10 g/2 = 5 g

At 3rd half life = 5 g/2 = 2.5 g

Thus, 2.5 g mass of Ra-226 will remain after 4800 years.

Select one:
a. C2H4
b. CH2
c. C4H8
d. C8H16

Answers

Answer:

Molecular formula = C₈H₁₆

Explanation:

Given data:

Percentage of hydrogen = 14.4%

Percentage of carbon = 85.6%

Molecular formula = ?

Molecular weight = 112 g/mol

Solution:

Number of gram atoms of H = 14.4/ 1.01 = 14.26

Number of gram atoms of C = 85.6/ 12 = 7.13

Atomic ratio:

            C                      :              H        

           7.13/7.13            :           14.26/7.13    

            1                      :                 2          

C : H = 1 : 2

Empirical formula is CH₂

Molecular formula:

Molecular formula = n (empirical formula)

n = molar mass of compound / empirical formula mass

n = 112 / 14

n = 8

Molecular formula = n (empirical formula)

Molecular formula = 8 (CH₂)

Molecular formula = C₈H₁₆

C 30 m/s east
D 30 m/s2

Answers

The answer is c
30 m/s east

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf C. \ 30 \ m/s \ east}}[/tex]

Explanation:

Velocity is the vector measurement of the change in position over time. A vector measurement means the answer must include a magnitude (numerical value) and a direction.

Here are some units of velocity:

m/s (meters per second) kph (kilometers per hour) km/s (kilometers per second)

There are many other units, but m/s is the most common.

We can eliminate choice B and D, because the units (meters-m and meters per second squared-m/s²) are not for velocity.

We are left with choice A (30 m/s) and C (30 m/s east). Remember, velocity needs a number and a direction. C contains the direction east, so it must be the correct answer.

Answers

Answer:

Ld₂Mz

General Formulas and Concepts:

Chemistry - Compounds

Valence shellsWriting chemical compoundsBalancing charges

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

"Lindenium" Ld w/ oxidation charge of +1

"Mendezine" Mz w/ oxidation charge of -2

Step 2: Write Compound

To balance out the charges to be neutral (0), we must counter balance the amount of Ld's with Mz's. We need 2 Ld's with 1 Mz to create a compound with a neutral charge:

2Ld¹⁺ + Mz²⁻

2(+1) + (-2) = (+2) + (-2) = 0 (neutral charge)

Therefore, our compound must be Ld₂Mz.

During a chemical or physical change, energy may be...

a. created into another form
b. destroyed and reinvented into another form
c. converted into another form
d. disappeared​

Answers

Answer: C: Converted into another form

Explanation: pues es esa calale y si va a hacer

During a chemical or physical change, energy is converted to another form. Energy cannot be created or destroyed. During a chemical reaction, physical change the energy and mass are conserved.

What is law of conservation of energy ?

According to the law of conservation of energy energy can neither be crated nor be destroyed. Hence, the total energy of a system is always conserved.

However, energy can be transformed from one form to the other. Therefore, the energy lost in one form is gained in another form. For example, in all electrical devices, the electrical energy is converting to other forms of energy such as light, thermal , mechanical etc.

Similarly, during a chemical reaction, the energy released by a reaction system is equal to the energy absorbed by other reacting system. Similarly in electrochemical cells the chemical energy is converting to electrical energy.

Periodic tables can use color to identify other element characteristics. For example, an electronegativity periodic table color codes the elements based on how electronegative they are. The valence periodic table uses color to identify the most common valence state for each element.Oct 2, 2019

pls like and rate us .

The color given to a the elements in periodic table is to characteristics of the elements mainly to identify whether they are solid, gas or liquid. Thus option D is correct.

What is periodic table?

A periodic table contains all the discovered elements which are classified into different groups and periods. Groups are vertical columns of elements with similar properties and same number of valence electrons.

Periods are horizontal rows from left to right with an increase in atomic number. There are 18 groups and 7 periods in periodic table. Each group has given each color and some elements showing exceptional characteristics such as hydrogen and helium have separate colors.

All the first group elements called alkali metals have one color and the second groups elements with another color, All the d-block elements are given the same colour and metals in p-block elements have the same color.

Similarly, all the metalloids have one color and all other gases have the same colour in which inert gas group and halogen group have seperate colours.

Hence, the color in periodic table helps to identify the element's nature like its state also. Thus option D is correct.

C3H5OH + 3 O2 --> CO2 + H2O When balancing the equation above, how many molecules of CO2 and H2O are produced? The first half is already balanced.

Answers

Answer:

1.8069*10²⁴molecules of CO₂ and H₂O are produced.

Explanation:

C₃H₅OH + O₂ → CO₂ + H₂O

The law of conservation of matter states that since no atom can be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction, the number of atoms that are present in the reagents has to be equal to the number of atoms present in the products.

Then, you must balance the chemical equation. For that, you must first look at the subscripts next to each atom to find the number of atoms in the equation. If the same atom appears in more than one molecule, you must add its amounts

Left side: 3 C, 6 H and 3 O.

Right side: 1 C, 2 H and 3 O.

The coefficients located in front of each molecule indicate the amount of each molecule for the reaction. This coefficient can be modified to balance the equation, just as you should never alter the subscripts.

By multiplying the coefficient mentioned by the subscript, you get the amount of each element present in the reaction.  

So, balancing the C:

C₃H₅OH + O₂ → 3 CO₂ + H₂O

Then:

Left side: 3 C, 6 H and 3 O.

Right side: 3 C, 2 H and 7 O.

Now, balancing the H:

C₃H₅OH + O₂ → 3 CO₂ + 3 H₂O

Then:

Left side: 3 C, 6 H and 3 O.

Right side: 3 C, 6 H and 9 O.

Finally, balancing the O:

C₃H₅OH + 4 O₂ → 3 CO₂ + 3 H₂O

Then:

Left side: 3 C, 6 H and 9 O.

Right side: 3 C, 6 H and 9 O.

Since you have the same amount of each element on each side of the reaction, the reaction is balanced. Then 3 moles of CO₂ and 3 moles of H₂O are produced.

Avogadro's Number or Avogadro's Constant is called the number of particles that make up a substance (usually atoms or molecules) and that can be found in the amount of one mole of said substance. Its value is 6.023*10²³ particles per mole and it applies to any substance.

Then the following rule of three applies: if 1 mole contains 6.023*10²³ molecules, then 3 moles of CO₂ or 3 moles of H₂O, how many molecules does it contain?

[tex]amount of molecules=\frac{3 moles* 6.023*10^{23} molecules}{1 mole}[/tex]

amount of molecules= 1.8069*10²⁴

1.8069*10²⁴ molecules of CO₂ and H₂O are produced.

The answer is D I hope this help

Mole measure the number of elementary entities of a given substance that are present in a given sample. To find mass of 2.25 mol of the element Iron (Fe), we multiply 2.25 mol by (55.84g divided by 1 mol). Therefore option c is correct option.

What is mole?

The SI unit of amount of substance in chemistry is mole. The mole is used to measure the quantity or amount of substance.

Mathematically,

Mole of Fe element=  mass of Fe element÷ Molar mass of Fe element

mass= Mole of Fe element ×Molar mass of Fe element

Substituting the given values in above formula we get

mass= 2.25 mol× 55.84 g/mole

mass= 2.25 mol× 55.84 g/mole

To find mass of 2.25 mol of the element Iron (Fe), we multiply 2.25 mol by (55.84g divided by 1 mol).
