Earth takes in thermal energy from the Sun in a process called thermal radiation.

Sunlight strikes Earth's surface at different angles. This angle is called the angle of insolation.

The gas-phase reaction follows an elementary rate law and is to be carried out first in a PFR and then in a separate experiment

astraxan [27]

Answer:

The activation energy is $=8.1\,kcal\,mol^{-1}$

Explanation:

The gas phase reaction is as follows.

$A \rightarrow B+C$

The rate law of the reaction is as follows.

$-r_{A}=kC_{A}$

The reaction is carried out first in the plug flow reactor with feed as pure reactant.

From the given,

Volume "V" = $10dm^{3}$

Temperature "T" = 300 K

Volumetric flow rate of the reaction $v_{o}=5dm^{3}s$

Conversion of the reaction "X" = 0.8

The rate constant of the reaction can be calculate by the following formua.

$V= \frac{v_{0}}{k}[(1+\epsilon )ln(\frac{1}{1-X}-\epsilon X)]$

Rearrange the formula is as follows.

$k= \frac{v_{0}}{V}[(1+\epsilon )ln(\frac{1}{1-X}-\epsilon X)]............(1)$

The feed has Pure A, mole fraction of A in feed $y_{A_{o}}$ is 1.

$\epsilon =y_{A_{o}}\delta$

$\delta$ = change in total number of moles per mole of A reacte.

$=1(2-1)=1$

Substitute the all given values in equation (1)

$k=\frac{5m^{3}/s}{10dm^{3}}[(1+1)ln \frac{1}{1-0.8}-1 \times 0.8] = 1.2s^{-1}$

Therefore, the rate constant in case of the plug flow reacor at 300K is $1.2s^{-1}$

The rate constant in case of the CSTR can be calculated by using the formula.

$\frac{V}{v_{0}}= \frac{X(1+\epsilon X)}{k(1-X)}.............(2)$

The feed has 50% A and 50% inerts.

Hence, the mole fraction of A in feed $y_{A_{o}}$ is 0.5

$\epsilon =y_{A_{o}}\delta$

$\delta$ = change in total number of moles per mole of A reacted.

$=0.5(2-1)=0.5$

Substitute the all values in formula (2)

$\frac{10dm^{3}}{5dm^{3}}=\frac{0.8(1+0.5(0.8))}{k(1-0.8)}=2.8s^{-1}$

Therefore, the rate constant in case of CSTR comes out to be $2.8s^{-1}$

The activation energy of the reaction can be calculated by using formula

$k(T_{2})=k(T_{1})exp[\frac{E}{R}(\frac{1}{T_{1}}-\frac{1}{T_{2}})]$

In the above reaction rate constant at the two different temperatures.

Rearrange the above formula is as follows.

$E= R \times(\frac{T_{1}T_{2}}{T_{1}-T_{2}})ln\frac{k(T_{2})}{k(T_{1})}$

Substitute the all values.

$=1.987cal/molK(\frac{300K \times320K}{320K \times300K})ln \frac{2.8}{1.2}=8.081 \times10^{3}cal\,mol^{-1}$

$=8.1\,kcal\,mol^{-1}$

Therefore, the activation energy is $=8.1\,kcal\,mol^{-1}$

When 1. 0 l of 0. 00010 m naoh and 1. 0 l of 0. 0014 m mgso4 are mixed, would a precipitate be formed? show work

koban [17]

When 1. 0 l of 0. 00010 m NaOH and 1. 0 l of 0. 0014 m mgso4 are mixed, there will be no precipitate formed.

<h3>What is a precipitate?</h3>

The precipitate is the solid concentration of a substance that is collected over a solution.

First, we determine the concentration of magnesium and hydroxide

(Mg2+) = 7.00 × 10⁻⁴

(OH−) = 5.00 × 10⁻⁵

Now, we calculate the solubility quotient

Qc = (Mg2+) (OH−) ²

Qc = 7.00 × 10⁻⁴ x (5.00 × 10⁻⁵)²

Qc = 1.75 x 10⁻¹²

The solubility product of the magnesium hydroxide is 1.80 x 10⁻¹¹ which is more than the solubility quotient. Thus, there will be no precipitate form.

Thus, there will be no precipitate formed because the solubility quotient we calculated is less than the solubility product.
