At a certain temperature this reaction follows first-order kinetics with a rate constant of 2.01 s^−1
ddd [48]

Answer:

0.80 seconds (2 significant figures)

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction is given as;

CICH2CH2Cl (g) --> CH2CHCI (g) + HCl(g)

Rate constant (k) = 2.01 s^-1

From the units of the rate constant, this is a first order reaction.

Initial Concentration = 1.34 M

t = ?

Final concentration = 20% of 1.34 = 0.268 M

The integrated rate law for a first order reaction is given as;

ln[A] = ln[A]o - kt

ln(0.268) = ln(1.34) - 2.01(t)

-2.01(t) = - 1.6094

t = 0.8007 ≈ 0.80 seconds (2 significant figures)

James was standing on a boat in deep ocean water. He wanted to see how long it would take a tennis ball to reach the shore if he
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

only the wave energy of the water moves

Explanation:

The plan will not work due to the fact that only the wave energy of the water moves and not the water itself.

<em>The wave motion of water does not displace the water. It is only able to transfer energy from one point to another within the medium. Hence, the ball will hardly be displaced because the water itself does not move. However, it can get to the shore with the assistance of the water current.</em>

Write a balanced chemical equation for the reaction of copper(II) sulfate and concentrated ammonia to produce teramine copper(II
Rudiy27

Answer:

CuSO4(aq) + 4NH3(aq) + nH2O→ [Cu(NH3)4H2On]S04(aq)

Explanation:

When the concentrated ammonia is added into the copper ions solution, a blue solid is formed. This blue solid is gelatinous.it consist of Cu(OH)2 in insoluble form. As more ammonia is added precipitate start to dissolve and [Cu(NH3)4]∧+2 is produce.

Net Ionic equation:

Cu∧+2 +4NH3 →  [Cu(NH3)4]∧+2

S04∧-2 are spectator ions.

Properties and uses of Tetraaminecopper(ll) sulfate:

1. It is solid compound.

2. Its color is dark blue.

3. It has ammonia like odor.

4. It is used to make the copper compounds and also used in the printing of fabric.

5. It is also used as pesticide.

When an aqueous solution of AgNO3 is electrolyzed, a gas is observed to form at the anode. The gas is
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

Oxygen

Explanation:

First, list out all the ions in the aqueous solution:

Ag+, NO3-

H+, OH-

In the anode, the substance lose electrons to undergo oxidation.

From the 4 ions, only OH- can lose electrons to form water and oxygen,

4OH- --->  O2 + 2H2O + 4e-

While others tend to gain electrons to form new substances instead (they undergo reduction).

Oxygen is the gas produced.
