The quantity of .^(14)C as well as that of .^(14)CO_(2) present in the atmosphere remains constant. The concentration of .^(14)C in all living organisms remains almost constant during their life time. After their death, .^(14)C is not taken up by them but the content of .^(14)C assimilated begins to decay by emitting beta- particles, with half-life period of 5568 years. The decay rate at the time of death of plant is 16.1counts per minute per gram of carbon. Hence, by measuring the decay rate of the dead matter, the age of matter can be calculated , e.g. if decay rate of sample of wood is found to be N distengrations per minute per gram of carbon after t years, then N=N_(0)e^(-lambda t) where lambda= disntegration constant and N_(0)= number of disntegrations per minute per gram when the plant had just died. In a dead plant, the decay rate will be

The quantify of electricity required to liberate 112 cm^(3) of hydrogen at STP from acidified water is

Answer»

0.1 Faraday
06500 Coulombs
965 Coulombs
1 Faraday

Solution :2g of `H_(2)` at S.T.P liberated `= 22400 cm^(3)` 1 G of `H_(2)` at S.T.P liberated = `11200 cm^(3)` For liberation `11200 cm^(3) H_(2)` at S.T.P. required = 96500C
For liberation `112 cm^(3) H_(2)` at S.T.P required
`= (96500 XX 112)/(11200) = 965C`

The putial pressure of ethane over a saturated solution containing 6.56 xx 10^(-2) g of ethane is 1 bar.if the solution contains 5.0 xx 10^(-2) g of ethane, then what will be the partial pressure of the gas ?

Answer»

Solution :Let the Henry.s law constant be `K_(H)` and no. of MOLES of solvent be M.
Partial pressure of ethane = `K_(H)` x mole fraction of ethane
` I = K_(H) XX (6.56 xx 10^(-2))/((30)/(M)) `
`K_(H) = (M xx 30)/(6.56 xx 10^(-2))`
Now the partial pressure of ethane containing 5.0 `xx 10^(-2)` will be
` = (M xx 30)/(6.56 xx 10^(-2)) xx (5.0 xx 10^(-2))/(30 xx M)`
= 0.762 BAR.
