The answer is 3.63. seconds.

Second order reaction is the reaction in which the rate of reaction depends on either the concentration of two reactant species or on the two times the concentration of single reactant species.

What is the integrated rate law for the second-order reaction?

  • The integrated rate law that relates the concentration, time and rate constant for the second-order reaction is:

\frac{1}{[A]} =\frac{1}{[A]_{0} } +kt

Where

\[\begin{array}{l}{\rm{[A]  -  concentration\ of\ reactant\ A\ at\ time\ t}}\\{{\rm{[A]}}_0}{\rm{ -  initial\ concentration\ of\ reactant\ A}}\\{\rm{t - time}}\\{\rm{k  -  rate\ constant}}\end{array}\]

  • Now, in the given question,

k = 0.54 m^{-1}. s^{-1}

[NO_{2} ]= 0.62\ M

[NO_{2} ]_{0} = 0.28\ M

  • Thus, using the rate law, the time is calculated as-

\frac{1}{0.28\ M} =\frac{1}{0.62\ M } +(0.54 m^{-1}.s^{-1})  t\\\\(0.54 m^{-1}.s^{-1})  t= \frac{1}{0.28\ M} -\frac{1}{0.62\ M } = 1.959 \\\\

Therefore,

t =\frac{1.959}{0.54} = 3.63\ seconds

  • Hence, the it would take 3.63 seconds for the concentration of NO_{2} to decrease from 0.62 M to 0.28 M if the reaction is second order.

If you are given a 1.0 L (1000mL) of an unknown liquid which has the mass of 500 grams it is most likely which of the above subs
pantera1 [17]
Given in the problem is the mass of the liquid (500 grams) and the volume of the liquid (1000 ml = 1000 cm^3).

We can use these two givens to calculate the density of the liquid using the following rule:
density = mass / volume
density = 500 / 1000 = 0.5 grams / cm^3

Comparing the calculated density with the choices we have, we can deduce that the liquid is most likely to be propane with density 0.494 g / cm^3

The conversation of cyclopropane to propene in the gas phase is a first order reaction with a rate constant of 6.7x10-⁴s-¹. a) i
Rus_ich [418]

Answer: a)  The concentration after 8.8min is 0.17 M

b) Time taken for the concentration of cyclopropane to decrease from 0.25M to 0.15M is 687 seconds.

Explanation:

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{a}{a-x}

where,

k = rate constant

t = age of sample

a = let initial amount of the reactant

a - x = amount left after decay process  

a) concentration after 8.8 min:

8.8\times 60s=\frac{2.303}{6.7\times 10^{-4}s^{-1}}\log\frac{0.25}{a-x}

\log\frac{0.25}{a-x}=0.15

\frac{0.25}{a-x}=1.41

(a-x)=0.17M

b) for concentration to decrease from 0.25M to 0.15M

t=\frac{2.303}{6.7\times 10^{-4}s^{-1}}\log\frac{0.25}{0.15}\\\\t=\frac{2.303}{6.7\times 10^{-4}s^{-1}}\times 0.20

t=687s
