Answer:

2.2 % and 0 %

Explanation:

The equation we will be using to solve this question is:

N/N₀  = e⁻λ t

where  N₀ : Number of paricles at t= 0

            N=  Number of particles after time t

             λ= Radioactive decay constant

             e= Euler´s constant

We are not given λ , but it can be determined from the half life with the equation:

λ = 0.693 / t 1/2 where t 1/2 is the half-life

Substituting our values:

λ = 0.693 / 55 s = 0.0126/s

a) For t = 5 min = 300 s

N / N₀ = e^-(0.0126/s x 300 s) = e^-3.8 = 0.022 = 2.2 %

b) For t = 1 hr = 3600 s

N / N₀ =  e^-(0.0126/s x 3600 s) = 2.9 x 10 ⁻²⁰ = 0 % (For all practical purposes)

If a person looking at a poster sees green instead of yellow and doesn't see red at all, this person most likely has color blind
Inga [223]
<span>People with protanopia are unable to sense any ‘red’ light, people with deuteranopia do not sense ‘green’ light and people with tritanopia cannot sense ‘blue’ light. If a person perceives the color green, then the yellow sensitive nerves must work somewhat effectively since green is a combination of yellow and blue. Red-sensitive nerves are most likely not responding properly for this person. The answer is C.</span>

On top of one of the peaks in rocky mountain national park the pressure of the atmosphere is 550 torr determine the boiling poin
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

The boiling point of water at 550 torr will be 91 °C or 364 Kelvin

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Pressure = 550 torr

The heat of vaporization of water is 40.7 kJ/mol.

Step 2: Calculate boiling point

⇒ We'll use the Clausius-Clapeyron equation

ln(P2/P1) = (ΔHvap/R)*(1/T1-1/T2)

ln(P2/P1) = (40.7*10^3 / 8.314)*(1/T1 - 1/T2)

⇒ with P1 = 760 torr = 1 atm

⇒ with P2 = 550 torr

⇒ with T1 = the boiling point of water at 760 torr = 373.15 Kelvin

⇒ with T2 = the boiling point of water at 550 torr = TO BE DETERMINED

ln(550/760) = 4895.4*(1/373.15 - 1/T2)

-0.3234 = 13.119 - 4895.4/T2

-13.4424= -4895.4/T2

T2 = 364.2 Kelvin = 91 °C

The boiling point of water at 550 torr will be 91 °C or 364 Kelvin

What is the name of the functional group that is attached to this hydrocarbon? The first and last of a chain of three carbons ar
disa [49]

Answer:

Ketone

Explanation:

As you are stating here, we have a carbonated chain of three carbons, and the first and last has 3 Hydrogens, then this means that we have CH₃ . The center carbon is a carbon double bonded to oxygen.

In general terms this belongs to the carbonyl group. However, this alone does not represent a functional group, but when it's in a chain with other radycals or chains, it becomes a functional group.

In this case, the molecule you are talking here is the following:

CH₃ - CO - CH₃

This molecule is known as the Acetone, and has the general form of:

R - CO - R'

Which belongs to a ketone as a functional group.

evablogger [386]

Answer:

sublime, melt, condense, deposit

Explanation:

1. When ice is warmed at a steady pressure 0.00512 atm, it will be sublime.  

2. It will be melt when ice is warmed at a consistent pressure of 1 atm.

3. If water vapour pressure is continued to increase at a temperature of 100  C, it will be condense.  

4. If water vapour pressure is continued to increase at a temperature of -50 C, it will be deposited.

Determine the number of neutrons in an atom of Rg-272.
IRISSAK [1]
In order to find the number of neutrons in the atom,

you need to calculate the difference between the top and bottom numbers

which means 272 - 111 = 161

Hope this helps
