Half life of a reaction

Sucrose decomposes in acid solution, according to the first order rate law, to give Glucose and fructose. If the half life for the reaction is 3.33 hours at 25 degree celcius, what fraction of a sample of sucrose would remain after 9 hours ?

Kinetic energy about a released electron

The work function of an element is the energy required to remove an electron from the surface of the solid. The work function for cadmium is 378.2 kJ/mol (that is, it takes 378.2 kJ of energy to remove 1 mol of electrons from 1 mol of Cd atoms on the surface of a sample of cadmium.) What is the maximum wavelength of light that c ...continues

Find Kp and Kc given an equilibrium equation, T, and P and % dissociation.

2NOBr(g) + Br2(g) <----> 2BrNO(g) @ equilibrium. NOBr is 34% dissociated at 25degreesC and total pressure is 0.25 atm. Calculate Kp and Kc. I know how to get Kp and Kc with given # of moles @ equilibrium, but cannot figure out how to get it from the percent dissociation. I tried inputting various values that I thought wer ...continues
