Answer:
radical-initiated
Explanation:
Radical-initiated polymerization is unpredictable and difficult to control. The reaction proceeds indiscriminately and produces shortened chains, loops, and branches that create holes in the polymer. This reduces its mass to volume ratio.
Below are the choices:
a. −166 kJ/mol
<span>b. 166 kJ/mol </span>
<span>c. 1.64 kJ/mol </span>
<span>d. 1.66 × 10^5 kJ/mol

To calculate the activation energy of a reaction, we use the Arrhenius equation. You may want to look it up to see how and why it works. In the problem you posted, there are two temperatures and two rate constants. After some rearranging and substitution of the Arrhenius equation, we have Ea = R T1 T2/(T1-T2) ln(k1/k2) = 8.314 J/mol K (600 K)(650 K)/(600 K-650 K) ln(2.7×10^-4 M^−1sec^−1/3.5×10^−3 M−^1sec^−1) = 166145 J/mol = 166 kJ/mol => choice b
Answer:
heat is released in going from reactants to products
Explanation:
hope this helps
The equation CH4 + O2 ? CO2 + H2O is not balanced because there are four hydrogen atoms in the reactant side of the equation and only two on the product side. for balancing this equation we add 2 withO2 in reactants and add 2 with H2O in products.
