Which statement is true of a catalyst?

chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

Correct option is D.

It accelerates the reaction rates of a mixture.

Explanation:

It is used to speed up a reaction by lowering the activation energy.Catalysis is the backbone of many industrial processes, which use chemical reactions to turn raw materials into useful products.

Types

There are two types of catalyst (1) Homogeneous (2) Heterogeneous

In a heterogeneous reaction, the catalyst is in a different phase from the reactants. In a homogeneous reaction, the catalyst is in the same phase as the reactants.

Write balanced net ionic equations for the reactions that occur in each of the following cases. Identify the spectator ion or io

Dmitrij [34]

Answer :

(a) The net ionic equation will be,

$2Cr^{2+}(aq)+3CO_3^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow Cr_2(CO_3)_3(s)$

The spectator ions are, $NH_4^{+}\text{ and }SO_4^{2-}$

(b) The net ionic equation will be,

$Ba^{2+}(aq)+SO_4^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow BaSO_4(s)$

The spectator ions are, $K^{+}\text{ and }NO_3^{-}$

(c) The net ionic equation will be,

$Fe^{2+}(aq)+2OH^{-}(aq)\rightarrow Fe(OH)_2(s)$

The spectator ions are, $K^{+}\text{ and }NO_3^{-}$

Explanation :

In the net ionic equations, we are not include the spectator ions in the equations.

Spectator ions : The ions present on reactant and product side which do not participate in a reactions. The same ions present on both the sides.

(a) The given balanced ionic equation will be,

$Cr_2(SO_4)_3(aq)+3(NH_4)_2CO_3(aq)\rightarrow 3(NH_4)_2SO_4(aq)+Cr_2(CO_3)_3(s)$

The ionic equation in separated aqueous solution will be,

$2Cr^{2+}(aq)+3SO_4^{2-}(aq)+6NH_4^{+}(aq)+3CO_3^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow Cr_2(CO_3)_3(s)+6NH_4^{+}(aq)+3SO_4^{2-}(aq)$

In this equation, $NH_4^{+}\text{ and }SO_4^{2-}$ are the spectator ions.

By removing the spectator ions from the balanced ionic equation, we get the net ionic equation.

The net ionic equation will be,

$2Cr^{2+}(aq)+3CO_3^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow Cr_2(CO_3)_3(s)$

(b) The given balanced ionic equation will be,

$Ba(NO_3)_2(aq)+K_2SO_4(aq)\rightarrow 2KNO_3(aq)+BaSO_4(s)$

The ionic equation in separated aqueous solution will be,

$Ba^{2+}(aq)+2NO_3^{-}(aq)+2K^{+}(aq)+SO_4^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow BaSO_4(s)+2K^{+}(aq)+2NO_3^{-}(aq)$

In this equation, $K^{+}\text{ and }NO_3^{-}$ are the spectator ions.

By removing the spectator ions from the balanced ionic equation, we get the net ionic equation.

The net ionic equation will be,

$Ba^{2+}(aq)+SO_4^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow BaSO_4(s)$

(c) The given balanced ionic equation will be,

$Fe(NO_3)_2(aq)+2KOH(aq)\rightarrow 2KNO_3(aq)+Fe(OH)_2(s)$

The ionic equation in separated aqueous solution will be,

$Fe^{2+}(aq)+2NO_3^{-}(aq)+2K^{+}(aq)+2OH^{-}(aq)\rightarrow Fe(OH)_2(s)+2K^{+}(aq)+2NO_3^{-}(aq)$

In this equation, $K^{+}\text{ and }NO_3^{-}$ are the spectator ions.

By removing the spectator ions from the balanced ionic equation, we get the net ionic equation.

The net ionic equation will be,

$Fe^{2+}(aq)+2OH^{-}(aq)\rightarrow Fe(OH)_2(s)$

Suppose a group of volunteers is planning to build a park near a local lake. The lake is known to contain low levels of arsenic

Kisachek [45]

Answer:

A) 10.75 is the concentration of arsenic in the sample in parts per billion .

B) 7,633.66 kg the total mass of arsenic in the lake that the company have to remove.

C) It will take 1.37 years to remove all of the arsenic from the lake.

Explanation:

A) Mass of arsenic in lake water sample = 164.5 ng

The ppb is the amount of solute (in micrograms) present in kilogram of a solvent. It is also known as parts-per million.

To calculate the ppm of oxygen in sea water, we use the equation:

$\text{ppb}=\frac{\text{Mass of solute}}{\text{Mass of solution}}\times 10^9$

Both the masses are in grams.

We are given:

Mass of arsenic = 164.5 ng = $164.5\times 10^{-9} g$

$1 ng=10^{-9} g$

Volume of the sample = V = $15.3 cm^3$

Density of the lake water sample ,d= $1.00 g/cm^3$

Mass of sample = M = $d\times V=1.0 g/cm^3\times 15.3 cm^3=15.3 g$

$ppb=\frac{164.5\times 10^{-9} g}{15.3 g}\times 10^9=10.75$

10.75 is the concentration of arsenic in the sample in parts per billion.

Mass of arsenic in $1 cm^3$ of lake water = $\frac{164.5\times 10^{-9} g}{15.3}=1.075\times 10^{-8} g$

Mass of arsenic in $0.710 km^3$ lake water be m.

$1 km^3=10^{15} cm^3$

Mass of arsenic in $0.710\times 10^{15} cm^3$ lake water :

$m=0.710\times 10^{15}\times 1.075\times 10^{-8} g=7,633,660.130 g$

1 g = 0.001 kg

7,633,660.130 g = 7,633,660.130 × 0.001 kg=7,633.660130 kg ≈ 7,633.66 kg

7,633.66 kg the total mass of arsenic in the lake that the company have to remove.

Company claims that it takes 2.74 days to remove 41.90 kilogram of arsenic from lake water.

Days required to remove 1 kilogram of arsenic from the lake water :

$\frac{2.74}{41.90} days$

Then days required to remove 7,633.66 kg of arsenic from the lake water :

$=7,633.66\times \frac{2.74}{41.90} days=499.19 days$

1 year = 365 days

499.19 days = $\frac{499.19}{365} years = 1.367 years\approx 1.37 years$

It will take 1.37 years to remove all of the arsenic from the lake.
