The mass of radium-226 in a sample is found to have decreased from 45.00g to 5.625g in a period of 4800 years.From this information. Calculate the half life of radium-226

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Half life = 1600 years

Explanation:

Given data:

Total mass of sample = 45.00 g

Mass remain = 5.625 g

Time period = 4800 years

Half life of radium-226 = ?

Solution:

First of all we will calculate the number of half lives passes,

At time zero 45.00 g

At first half life = 45.00 g/ 2= 22.5 g

At 2nd half life = 22.5 g/ 2 = 11.25 g

At 3rd half life = 11.25 g/ 2= 5.625 g

Half life:

Half life = Time elapsed / number of half lives

Half life = 4800 years / 3

Half life = 1600 years

Answers

Answer:

V = 44.83 L

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of nitrogen gas = ?

Number of moles = 2.0 mol

Temperature = 0°C

Pressure = 1atm

Solution:

The given problem will be solve by using general gas equation,

PV = nRT

P= Pressure

V = volume

n = number of moles

R = general gas constant = 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K  

T = temperature in kelvin

Now we will convert the temperature.

0+273 = 273 K

1 atm× V = 2.0 mol × 0.0821 atm.L/mol.K × 273K

1 atm× V = 44.83 atm.L

V = 44.83 atm.L / 1 atm

V = 44.83 L

How many grams are there in a 14.5 moles lithium permanganate

Answers

There are 1825.6 g in a 14.5 moles Lithium permanganate

Further explanation

The mole is the number of particles(molecules, atoms, ions) contained in a substance  

1 mol = 6.02.10²³ particles

Can be formulated

N=n x No

N = number of particles

n = mol

No = Avogadro's = 6.02.10²³

Moles can also be determined from the amount of substance mass and its molar mass :

[tex]\tt mol=\dfrac{mass}{MW}[/tex]

moles of Lithium permanganate = 14.5

Lithium permanganate (LiMnO4) MW=125.9 g/mol, so mass :

[tex]\tt mass=mol\times MW\\\\mass=14.5\times 125.9~g/mol\\\\mass=1825.6~g[/tex]

Characteristics of the water at the mountain source: Speed: Temperature Oxygen Level Nutrient Level

Answers

Describe the characteristics of the water at the mountain source:

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

Speed: there will be faster speed due to the steep slope movement of water from the mountain.

Temperature: there will be lower temperatures as a result of the faster speed of water movement which reduces the influence of solar radiation on it.

Oxygen: the oxygen content is higher due to little or no residue particles present in it.

Nutrient Level: this is considered somewhat low as a result of the water coldness and speed which does not support the nutrition base to form.

point Deshawn ran the 400 m race(in a straight line) in 2 minutes. What is his distance and displacement ? Explain your answer below in complete sentences.​

Answers

His distance and displacement are the same, which was 400 m

Further explanation

Given

Distance = 400 m

time = 2 min

Required

Distance and displacement

Solution

Distance is a scalar quantity that indicates the length of the trajectory that is traveled by an object within a certain interval. Distance has no direction, only has magnitude  

Can be simplified distance = totals traveled  

Displacement is a vector quantity that shows changes in the position of objects in a certain interval of time. Displacement has magnitude and direction  

Can be simplified displacement = distanced traveled from starting point to ending point  

From the definition above shows that the displacement and the distance that he traveled have the same value (magnitude), which is equal to 400 m

The value of the two will be different if he starts and finishes at the same point, then the displacement value is zero while the distance he has traveled is still 0

The formation of an ionic compound involves the transfer of electrons. The removal of one or more electrons from a metal is a process that _____ energy, whereas the addition of one or more electrons to a nonmetal _____ energy.

Answers

Answer:

Absorbs, Releases

Explanation:

The formation of an ionic compound involves the transfer of electrons. The removal of one or more electrons from a metal is a process that absorbs energy, whereas the addition of one or more electrons to a nonmetal releases energy.

Answer:

Absorbs

Release

Explanation:

The formation of ionic compounds occurs between two kinds of atoms having a large electronegativity difference (Δx ≥ 0.7) e.g metals (like those in group IA and IIA) and non-metals(like those in groups VIA and VIIA). The formation of an ionic bond involves the transfer of electron(s) from the less electronegative atom (metal) to the more electronegative atom (non-metal) such that the two kinds of atoms now have a completely filled outer shell like the noble gas.

If you have 2 of the same substance and they are at the same temperature but have a different amount, what changes?

Answers

Answer:

The heat energy stored within them changes

Explanation:

Heat energy is a function of the mass of a body, its specific heat capacity, and its temperature.

In this case, the bodies have the same specific heat capacity since they are made from the same material and the same temperature.

To get the quantity of heat stored in a body, we need to multiply all three parameters as shown below

[tex]Q = mC \Delta T[/tex]

An increase in mass, through an increase in the amount of substance of a material present, will cause a corresponding increase in the heat energy stored within the material

This means in order for the object to heat up it will have to have a temperature that is less than the temperature in the room. Ice cubes, glass of tea, and butter are the three objects that have a temperature less than 72 degrees so when they are placed in the 72 degrees room they will heat gain heat (therefore making the molecules move faster)

Imagine that you have an ideal gas in a 4.30 L container, and that 1250 molecules of this gas collide with a square-inch area of the container at any given instant. If the volume is increased to 21.5 L at constant temperature, how many collisions will occur per square inch of this larger container

Answers

Answer:

250 collisions per square inch

Explanation:

According to Boyle's law, at constant temperatures, the pressure exerted by gas molecules is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas. Hence;

    P1V1 = P2V2 where P1 = initial pressure, V1 = initial volume, P2 = final pressure, and V2 = final volume

In this case, the collision that occurred is taken as the pressure.

P1 = 1250, V1 = 4.30 , V2 = 21.5 P2 = ?

P2 = P1V1/V2

        = 1250 x 4.30/21.5

                 = 250

Hence, at a constant temperature, 250 collisions per square inch of the larger container will occur.
