A student fails to insert the cuvette into the colorimeter or spectrophotometer correctly. What effect will this have on the measured absorbance

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

It would cause scattering of light and absorbance measurement is going to be reported as too large

Explanation:

The curvette was not inserted correctly into the spectrometer. The effect that this would have on measured absorbance is that it would cause scattering of light.

Failing to line the curvette correctly would cause light to scatter, the light reaching the photodetector would be less. This less light would then be interpreted as more light being absorbed. This would end up making the absorbance value to be read as too large.

The isotope carbon-14 decays over time into nitrogen-14 with a half-life of 5,730 years. Suppose that you find a fossil that contains 1.25 grams of carbon-14 and 3.75 grams of nitrogen-14. How old is the fossil

Answers

Answer:

11460 years

Explanation:

0.693/t1/2 = 2.303/t log (No/N)

t1/2 = half life of the carbon

t = age of the fossil

No= amount of radioactive material originally present

N= amount of radioactive material present at time=t

No= mass of carbon + nitrogen = 5g

0.693/5730 = 2.303/t log (5/1.25)

1.21 ×10^-4 = 1.3866/t

t= 1.3866/1.21 ×10^-4

t= 11460 years

Determine the mass in grams of 5.49 × 10²¹ atoms of arsenic. (The mass of one mole of arsenic is 74.92 g.)

Answers

Answer:

0.67 g

Explanation:

We know that 1 mole of an element is 6.02 x 10^(23) atoms

Now, arsenic has 5.49 × 10²¹ atoms

Thus;

Number of moles of arsenic = 5.49 × 10²¹ × 1/6.02 x 10^(23) = 9 × 10^(-3) moles

We are told that;

one mole of arsenic = 74.92 g.

Thus, 9 × 10^(-3) moles = 9 × 10^(-3) × 74.92/1 = 0.67428 g ≈ 0.67 g

The half-life of sodium-24 is 15 days. A laboratory technician measures out a 72 g sample. Approximately how many grams of sodium-24 would remain after 45 days?

Answers

Answer:

after 45 days 9 g left

Explanation:

Given data:

Half life Na-24 = 15 days

Mass of sample = 72 g

Mass remain after 45 days = ?

Solution:

Number of half lives passed:

Number of half lives = time elapsed / half life

Number of half lives = 45 days / 15 days

Number of half lives = 3

At time zero total amount = 72 g

After first half life = 72 g/ 2= 36 g

At 2nd half life = 36 g/2 = 18 g

At 3rd half life = 18 g/2 = 9 g

Thus after 45 days 9 g left.

How many particles of argon (Ar) are present in 18.4L of argon?​ please

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

C

[tex]4.9 \times 10^{23}[/tex]  are present in 18.4L of argon (Ar).

To calculate the amount of particles present in a given amount of volume, it is necessary to have knowledge of the molar volume:

                                          [tex]1 mol = 22.4L[/tex]

Thus, in 22.4L there is 1 mol of an element, remembering that:

                                   [tex]1 mol = 6\times10^{23}[/tex] particles

In this way, it is enough to relate the value of the molar volume given with the value requested by the question:

                                     [tex]\frac{6\times10^{23}particles}{xparticles} = \frac{22.4L}{18.4L}[/tex]

                                    [tex]x = 4.9 \times 10^{23}[/tex] particles

 So, [tex]4.9 \times 10^{23}[/tex] are present in 18.4L of argon (Ar).

Classify each solvent as protic or aprotic. a. (CH3)2CHOH c. CH2Cl2 e. N(CH3)3 b. CH3NO2 d. NH3 f. HCONH2

Answers

Answer:

The protic solvents are (CH3)2CHOH, NH3, and HCONH2

The aprotic solvent are CH3NO2, CH2Cl2, and N(CH3)3

Explanation:

A protic solvent is a solvent that has a hydrogen atom bound to an oxygen (O), a nitrogen (N), or fluoride (F). Generally, any solvent that contains a labile H⁺ is called a protic solvent.

a. (CH3)2CHOH

(CH3)2CHOH is a protic solvent because one of the hydrogens is bound to oxygen (O)

b. CH3NO2

CH3NO2 is an aprotic (i.e not a protic solvent) solvent because all the hydrogens are bound to carbon.

c. CH2Cl2

CH2Cl2 is an aprotic solvent because all the hydrogens are bound to carbon.

d. NH3 is a protic solvent because all the hydrogens are bound to Nitrogen (N)

e. N(CH3)3 is an aprotic solvent because all the hydrogens are bound to carbon

f. HCONH2 is a protic solvent because two of the hydrogens are bound to Nitrogen (N)

Question 2 options:


Mg2 + LiBr ---> LiMg + Br


2KCl + F2 ---> 2KF + Cl2


Na +O2 ---> Na2O


H20 ---> H2 + O2

Answers

Answer:

2KCl + F₂   →     2KF + Cl₂

Explanation:

Law of conservation of mass:

According to the law of conservation mass, mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical equation.

This law was given by French chemist  Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.

For example:

2KCl + F₂   →     2KF + Cl₂

In this equation mass of reactant and product is equal. There are 2 potassium 2 chlorine and fluorine atoms on both side of equation it means mass remain conserved.

All other options are incorrect because mass is not conserved.

Compare What do infrared technologies, fiber optic
technologies, and satellite technologies all have in
common?

Answers

Answer:

ptic fiber communication and satellite communication are the leading technologies which are revolutionizing the world of telecommunications. Both technologies have their advantages and limitations which make them suitable for certain type of applications. This article will provide an overview of optic fiber and satellite communication technologies and present a comparison of the features and related issues.

Optic Fiber Communication

Optic Fiber communication transmits information by sending pulses of light (using laser) through an optic fiber. The low signal loss in optic fibers and high data rate of transmission systems, allow signals with high data rates (exceeding several Gbps) to travel over long distances (more than 100 km) without a need of repeater or amplifier. Moreover, using wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) allows a single fiber to carry multiple signals (upto 10 different signals) of multi-Gbps transmissions. Optic Fiber communication offers extremely high bandwidth, immunity to electromagnetic interference, non-existent delays and immunity from interception by external means. In the 1980s and 1990s, the continents were linked together using undersea optic fiber bringing about a paradigm shift in the global telecommunications.

These advancements in optic fiber communication has resulted in decrease of satellite communications for several types of communications. For instance, transmission between fixed locations or point-to-point communications, where large bandwidths are required (such as transoceanic telephone systems) are made through optic fiber instead of using satellite communication. Optic Fiber communication is also used to transmit telephone signals, Internet communication, LAN (Gigabit LAN) and cable television signals.

Satellite Communication

Satellite communications use artificial satellites as relays between a transmitter and a receiver at different locations on Earth. Satellite systems allow users to bypass typical carrier offices and to broadcast information to multiple locations. Communications satellites are used for radio, TV, telephone, Internet, military and other applications. There are more than 2,000 satellites around Earth’s orbit, being used for communication by both government and private organizations.

Communication Satellites are LOS (line-of-sight) microwave systems with a repeater. These satellites rotate around the earth with the speed of earth and are known as geostationary satellites. The limitations of antenna size also limits focusing capability making the coverage for a single satellite transmitter very large. This makes satellite communication ideal for TV and radio services as the signal has to flow from a single point to many points in a single direction. The large distance of satellites from the earth (about 22,300 miles) results in delays which adversely effects two-way communication like mobile conversations. Low earth orbit satellites can be used for two-way mobile communication because less power is required to reach those satellites.
