It’s called an isotope which is an atom with the same number of protons but a different number of neutrons
Answer:
(a) rate = 4.82 x 10⁻³s⁻¹ [N2O5]
(b) rate = 1.16 x 10⁻⁴ M/s
(c) rate = 2.32 x 10⁻⁴ M/s
(d) rate = 5.80 x 10⁻⁵ M/s
Explanation:
We are told the rate law is first order in N₂O₅, and its rate constant is 4.82 x 10⁻³s⁻¹ . This means the rate is proportional to the molar concentration of N₂O₅, so
(a) rate = k [N2O5] = 4.82 x 10⁻³s⁻¹ x [N2O5]
(b) rate = 4.82×10⁻³s⁻¹ x 0.0240 M = 1.16 x 10⁻⁴ M/s
(c) Since the reaction is first order if the concentration of N₂O₅ is double the rate will double too: 2 x 1.16 x 10⁻⁴ M/s = 2.32 x 10⁻⁴ M/s
(d) Again since the reaction is halved to 0.0120 M, the rate will be halved to
1.16 x 10⁻⁴ M/s / 2 = 5.80 x 10⁻⁵ M/s
In general when you heat up a liquid such as water its volume "increases" as the heat energy causes the water molecules to move leading to more space between molecules causing it to occupy a larger volume.
hope that helps
