The balanced equation for decomposition of
Explanation of Solution
When Bromine-82 undergoes beta (
Already given that Hydrogen bromide made with Bromine-82 isotope. Above equation shows that
(b)
Interpretation:
Bromine-82 decays by emission of beta particle. The half-life of Bromine-82 is 1.471d.
The quantity of
(b)
Answer to Problem 20.101QP
The quantity of
At
Explanation of Solution
Use the rate law to identify the fraction after 10.0h. The half-life is 1.471d.
Taking antilog on both sides gives,
So, the number of moles of
The reaction can be summarized as follows,
To determine the pressure in the flask, we required the total moles of gas. This is,
Therefore, the pressure in the flask is,
