Answer:
k = 2.17E-2 s-1
Explanation:
Initial Concentration [A]o = 0.380 M
Final Concentration [A] = 0.215 M
time, t = 26.3 s
Unit of rate constant = s-1
Rate constant = ?
The units of the rate constant depends on the order of the reaction. This is a first order reaction due to the units.
The integral rate law for a first order reaction is;
ln[A] = ln[A]o - kt
ln(0.215) = ln(0.380) - k(26.3)
ln(0.215) - ln(0.380) = - k(26.3)
- k(26.3) = -0.57
k = 0.57 / 26.3 = 0.02167
Reporting to three significant figures using E notation;
k = 2.17E-2 s-1
Answer:
The solvent
Explanation:
After the solid is recoverd by decanting the liquid, some solvent particles may still adhere to the solid.
In order to remove the solvent that may have adhered to the solid completely , the solid is washed before it is now dried.
