Answer:

Sulfur (Acidic)

Explanation:

Lime would just add to the amount of alkalinity, and water would do nothing much due to it being neutral.

Sulfur, which is acidic, will neutralize the pH level. The opposite of Alkalinity is Acidity, and Neutrality is in the middle of the two.

What is the wavelength of a sound wave moving at 340 m/s with a frequency of 256 Hz?

777dan777 [17]

The wavelength of a sound wave moving at 340 m/s and with a frequency of 256 Hz is calculated using the the below formula

wavelength = speed of the wave/frequency

speed of the wave = 340 m/s
frequency = 256 Hz

wavelength is therefore = 340/256 = 1.32 m

A second- order reaction of the type A + B -->P was carried out in a solution that was initially 0.075 mol dm^-3 in A and 0.0

andriy [413]

Answer:

a) 16.2 dm^3/mol*h

b) 6.1 × 10^3 s, 2.5 × 10^3 s (it is different to the hint)

Explanation:

We can use the integrated rate equation in order to obtain k.

For the reaction A+ B --> P the reaction rate is written as

Rate = $-\frac{dC_A}{dt} = -\frac{dC_B}{dt} = \frac{dC_P}{dt} = kC_AC_B$

If $C_{A0}$ and $C_{B0}$ are the inital concentrations and x the concentration reacted at time t, so $C_A=C_{A0} -x$ and $C_B=C_{B0} -x$ and the rate at time t is written as:

$-\frac{dx}{dt} =-k(C_{A0} -x)(C_{B0}-x)$

Separating variables and integrating

$\int\limits^x_0 {\frac{1}{(C_{A0}-x)(C_{B0}-x)} } \, dx = \int\limits^t_0 {k} \, dt$

The integral in left side is solved by partial fractions, it can be used integral tables

$\frac{1}{C_{B0}-C_{A0}}(ln\frac{C_{A0}}{C_{A0}-x}-ln\frac{C_{B0}}{C_{B0}-x}) =kt$

Using logarithm properties (ln x - ln y = ln(x/y))

$\frac{1}{C_{B0}-C_{A0}}(ln\frac{C_{A0}C_{B}}{C_{A}C_{B0}}) =kt$

Using the given values k can be calculated. But the data seems inconsistent since if the concentration of A changes from 0.075 to 0.02 mol dm^-3 it implies that 0.055 mol dm^-3 of A have reacted after 1 h, so according to the reaction given the same quantity of B should react, and we only have a $C_{B0}$ of 0.05 mol dm^-3.

Assuming that the concentration of B fall to 0.02 mol dm^-3 (and not the concentration the A). So we arrive to the answer given in the Hint.

So, the values given are t= 1, $C_{A0}=0.075$ , $C_{B0}=0.05$ , $C_{B}=0.02$ , it implies that the quantity reacted, x, is 0.03 and $C_{A}=0.075-x = 0.045$ . Then, the value of k would be

$kt = \frac{1}{0.05-0.075}(ln\frac{0.075*0.02}{0.045*0.05})$

$k = 16.21 \frac{dm^3}{mol*1h}$

b) the question b requires calculate the time when the concentration of the specie is half of the initial concentration.

For reactant A, It is solved with the same equation

$\frac{1}{C_{B0}-C_{A0}}(ln\frac{C_{A0}C_{B}}{C_{A}C_{B0}}) =kt$

but suppossing that $C_A= C_{A0}/2=0.0375$ so $C_B=C_{B0}- C_{A0}/2=0.0125$ , k=16.2 and the same initial concentrations. Replacing in the equation

$t=\frac{1}{16.2(0.05-0.075)}(ln\frac{0.075*0.0125}{0.0375*0.05})$

$t=1.71 h = 1.71*3600 s = 6.1*10^3 s$

For reactant B, $C_B= C_{B0}/2=0.025$ so $C_A=C_{A0}- C_{B0}/2=0.05$ , k=16.2 and the same initial concentrations. Replacing in the equation

$t=\frac{1}{16.2(0.05-0.075)}(ln\frac{0.075*0.025}{0.05*0.05})$

$t=0.71 h = 0.7*3600 s = 2.5*10^3 s$

Note: The procedure presented is correct, despite of the answer be something different to the given in the hint, I obtain that result if the k is 19.2... (maybe an error in calculation of given numbers)
