Answer:
- <u>25.0 liter of nitrogen gas</u>
Explanation:
<u>1. Chemical equation</u>
Ammonium nitrite is a solid compound that decomposes into nitrogen gas and water vapor as per this chemical equation:
<u>2. Mole ratio</u>
<u>3. Volume ratio</u>
Since, both species are gases and are at same temperature and pressure, the volume ratio is equal to the mol ratio.
Thus, the volume ratio is:
<u>4. Use the volume ratio with the known amount of water produced</u>
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
Answer:
c.boron-11
Explanation:
The atomic mass of boron is 10.81 u.
And 10.81 u is a lot closer to 11u than it is to 10u, so there must be more of boron-11.
To convince you fully, we can also do a simple calculation to find the exact proportion of boron-11 using the following formula:
(10u)(x)+(11u)(1−x)100%=10.81u
Where u is the unit for atomic mass and x is the proportion of boron-10 out of the total boron abundance which is 100%.
Solving for x we get:
11u−ux=10.81u
0.19u=ux
x=0.19
1−x=0.81
And thus the abundance of boron-11 is roughly 81%.
