The atomic hydrogen exists in space at an estimated concentration of one particle per cubic meter. If the collision diameter is 2.5 ×10^(–10) meter and the temperature is 2.7 Kelvin, how many kilometers away will the next potential collision be? Express the answer in three significant figures.
3) Carbon-14 is constantly being produced in the upper atmosphere, and the amount is in
equilibrium. As long as an organism is alive, it keeps its carbon isotopes in balance with the
atmosphere, but at soon as it dies, it stops taking up new 14C, and so the geologic clock starts.
You found a shell buried in sedimentary layers, which has 6% of its original 14C left.
Determine the age of the shell. Show your work.
2Na(s) +2H2O(l) → H2 (g) + 2Na+(aq) +2OH-(aq)
Considering this equation, what evidence would you look for and what tests would you perform as evidence that the reaction taken place is the one predicted?

- ..1.. 4.. . I6 Il 7 Scenario 2 The airbags in vehicles contain a mixture of NaN,, KNO, and SiO, When a car decelerates at a rapid pace, an electrical signal goes to the gas generator inside the airbag, triggering a series of three chemical reactions: 10NAN. 10NA +2KNỎ, K,O + Na,0 + Na + SiO, - K,SiO, 10NA + 15N,(g) KO + 5Na O + N,(g) These reactions produce gas (N.) to fill the airbag and convert sodium azide (NaN,), a highly toxic substance, to alkaline silicate (K,SiO ). The quantity of NaN, must be carefully calculated to ensure that the volume of gas is adequate to fill the airbag firmly enough to protect the passenger but not overfill and cause the bag to explode. A standard airbag needs 67 L of N, (g) to properly inflate. notesarrow_forwardThe age of wine can be determined by measuring the trace amount of radioactive tritium, 3H, present in a sample. Tritium is formed from hydrogen in water vapor in the upper atmosphere by cosmic bombardment, so all naturally ocurring water contains a small amount of this isotope. Once the water is in a bottle of wine, however, the formation of additional tritium from the water is negligible, so the tritium initially present gradually diminishes by a first-order radioactive decay with a half-life of 12.5 years.
