Two gases X and Y are found in the atmosphere in only trace amounts because they decompose quickly. When exposed to ultraviolet light the half-life of X is 15. min, while that of Y is 1.75 h. Suppose an atmospheric scientist studying these decompositions fills a transparent 10.0 L flask with X and Y and exposes the flask to UV light. Initially, the partial pressure of X is 50.0% greater than the partial pressure of Y. As both gases decompose, will the partial pressure of X ever fall below the partial pressure of Y? If you said yes, calculate the time it takes the partial pressure of X to fall below the partial pressure of Y. Round your answer to 2 significant digits. 0 yes no min x10 X 010 Ś 00c 18 Ar DI

Scientists working in Lake Apoka calculating half-lives of pollutants called volatile organic compounds, often measure a transport rate constant. In one study conducted in the fall of 2010, researchers from the University of Florida found the half-life of a particular pollutant in the lake when the concentration measured 0.835 M was 37.3 days. Assuming that the process is first order, calculate the rate constant of this process.
