Am-241 has a half life of roughly 432 years. How much of
a 100 gram sample would remain after 1,296 years?
Answer to the nearest tenth.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

12.5 g

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Half-life (t½) = 432 years.

Original amount (N₀) = 100 g

Time (t) = 1296 years

Amount remaining (N) =?

Next, we shall determine the number of half-lives that has elapse. This can be obtained as follow:

Half-life (t½) = 432 years.

Time (t) = 1296 years

Number of half-lives (n) =?

n = t / t½

n = 1296 / 432

n = 3

Thus, 3 half-lives has elapsed.

Finally, we shall determine the amount of the isotope remaining. This can be obtained as follow:

Original amount (N₀) = 100 g

Number of half-lives (n) = 3

Amount remaining (N) =?

N = 1/2ⁿ × N₀

N = 1/2³ × 100

N = 1/8 × 100

N = 0.125 × 100

N = 12.5 g

Thus, 12.5 g of the isotope is remaining.

How can we identify patterns of volcanic eruptions?

Answers

We can predict volcanic eruptions by taking real-time measurements and comparing them to past eruptions. Scientists use a mixture of tools and technologies to monitor the temperatures, gas emissions, water levels, ground movements, and changes in the landscape to try to figure out the patterns.

What is the mass of hydrochloric acid required to produce 25.0g of beryllium chloride? g

What is the mass of hydrogen gas produced when 25.0g of beryllium chloride is also produced? g

Answers

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction is given as;

Be + 2HCl → BeCl2 + H2

What is the mass of beryllium required to produce 25.0g of beryllium chloride?

1 mol of Be produces 1 mol of BeCl2

Converting to mass;

Mass = Molar mass  *  Number of moles

9.01g of Be produces 79.92g of BeCl2

xg of Be produces 25g of BeCl2

Solving for x;

x = 25 * 9.01 / 79.92

x = 2.82 g

What is the mass of hydrochloric acid required to produce 25.0g of beryllium chloride? g

Converting 25.0g of beryllium chloride to moles;

Number of moles = Mass / Molar mass

Number of moles = 25 / 79.92 = 0.3128 mol

2 mol of HCl produces 1 mol of BeCl2

x mol of HCl would produce 0.3128 mol of BeCl2

solving for x;

x = 0.3128 * 2 = 0.6256 mol

Converting to mass;

Mass = 0.6256 * 36.5 = 22.83 g

What is the mass of hydrogen gas produced when 25.0g of beryllium chloride is also produced? g

25g of BeCl2 = 0.3128 mol of BeCl2

From the equation;

1 mol of H2 is produced alongside 1 mol of BeCl2

This means;

0.3128 mol of H2 would also be produced alongside 0.3128 mol of BeCl2

Mass = Number of moles * Molar mass

Mass = 0.3128mol * 2.0159 g/mol = 0.6306 g

Which product forms from a reaction between calcium (Ca) and phosphorus
(P)?
A. Ca2P3
B. Cap
C. CazP2
D. CaP2

Answers

Among these options, the correct formula for calcium phosphide is D. [tex]CaP_2[/tex]. Option D

The product formed from a reaction between calcium (Ca) and phosphorus (P) is calcium phosphide, which is represented by the chemical formula [tex]Ca_3P_2[/tex].

In the reaction between calcium and phosphorus, the calcium atom (Ca) donates two electrons to each phosphorus atom (P). This results in the formation of calcium ions (Ca2+) and phosphide ions (P3-). The ions combine to form the compound calcium phosphide ([tex]Ca_3P_2[/tex]).

The formula [tex]Ca_3P_2[/tex]indicates that three calcium atoms combine with two phosphorus atoms. The numerical subscripts are determined by the charges of the ions involved. Calcium, being a group 2 element, forms ions with a +2 charge (Ca2+), while phosphorus, being a group 15 element, forms ions with a -3 charge (P3-).

The product options provided are:

A. [tex]Ca_3P_2[/tex]

B. Cap

C. [tex]CazP_2[/tex]

D. [tex]CaP_2[/tex]

Among these options, the correct formula for calcium phosphide is D. [tex]CaP_2[/tex].

One type of atom is oxidized and another is reduced and  Electrons are transferred from one atom to another. Therefore, the correct options are options C,D.

What is redox reaction?

Any chemical process in which a participating chemical species' oxidation number changes is known as an oxidation-reduction reaction, often known as a redox reaction. The phrase refers to a broad range of processes. Numerous oxidation-reduction processes are as frequent and well-known as fire, metal corrosion and disintegration, fruit browning, respiration, and photosynthesis—basic life processes.

The combined processes of oxidation and reduction are known as redox reactions due to their complimentary nature. The oxidising agent is the reactant that causes the oxidation, while the reducing agent itself reduces this reagent.  One type of atom is oxidized and another is reduced and  Electrons are transferred from one atom to another.

Therefore, the correct options are options C,D.

4. _________0.322 moles Of Ne in a 4.00 L container at a temperature of 398K

Answers

Answer:

a. The gas with the highest average molecular speed is the gas option 3.

b, The gas that has the lowest average molecular speed is the gas option 1.

c. The gas with average molecular speed between the highest and the lowest is the gas sample, option 4

Explanation:

From the kinetic theory of gases we have;

[tex]v_{rms} = \sqrt{\dfrac{3\cdot R\cdot T}{m} }[/tex]

Where;

[tex]v_{rms}[/tex] = The root mean square velocity of the gas

T = Temperature of gas in Kelvin

m = Mass of atom or molecule in kilograms

R = The universal gas constant

Therefore, [tex]v_{rms}[/tex] ∝ T and [tex]v_{rms}[/tex] ∝ 1/m

a. Therefore, the gas with the highest average molecular speed has the highest temperature, 'T', and the lowest mass, 'm', therefore, we have;

The gas with the highest average molecular speed is the gas option 3. with only 0.128 moles of Ne in 5.69 L container at a temperature of 426 K

b. The gas with the lowest average molecular speed has the lowest temperature, 'T', and the highest mass, 'm', therefore, we have;

The gas with the lowest average molecular speed is the gas option 1. with only 0.564 moles of Ne in 5.33 L container at a temperature of 308 K

c. The gas with an average molecular speed between the highest and the lowest is the gas with intermediate temperature and mass within the given gas samples

Therefore, the gas with the average molecular speed between the highest and lowest is the gas option 4. with 0.322 moles of Ne in 4.00 L container at a temperature of 398 K

Consider an element Z that has two naturally occurring isotopes with the following percent abundances: the isotope with a mass number of 19.0 is 55.0% abundant; the isotope with a mass number of 21.0 is 45.0% abundant. What is the average atomic mass for element Z?

Average atomic mass of Z = [mass]

Answers

Answer:

Average atomic mass = 19.9 amu

Explanation:

Isotopes can be defined as two or more forms of a chemical element that are made up of equal numbers of protons and electrons but different numbers of neutrons.

Generally, the isotopes of a chemical element have the same chemical properties because of their atomic number but different physical properties due to their atomic weight (mass number).

Given the following data;

Relative abundance of Z-19 = 55%

Relative abundance of Z-21 = 45%

Atomic mass of Z-19 = 19 amu

Atomic mass of Z-21 = 21 amu

To find the average atomic mass;

Average atomic mass = 19 * (55/100) + 21 * (45/100)

Average atomic mass = 19*0.55 + 21*0.45

Average atomic mass = 10.45 + 9.45

Average atomic mass = 19.9 amu

Therefore, the average atomic mass for element Z is 19.9 amu.

Answers

Answer:

3.94 L

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass of O₂ = 5.62 g

Volume of O₂ =?

Next, we shall determine the number of mole present in 5.62 g of O₂. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass of O₂ = 5.62 g

Molar mass of O₂ = 2 × 16 = 32 g/mol

Mole of O₂ =?

Mole = mass / molar mass

Mole of O₂ = 5.62 / 32

Mole of O₂ = 0.176 mole

Finally, we shall determine the volume of 5.62 g (i.e 0.176 mole) of O₂ at STP. This can be obtained as follow:

1 mole of O₂ occupied 22.4 L at STP.

Therefore, 0.176 mole of O₂ will occupy = 0.176 × 22.4 = 3.94 L at STP.

Thus 5.62 g (i.e 0.176 mole) of O₂ occupied 3.94 L at STP
