HELPPP<br> What do you think caused this land formation ?
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

Erosion/Weathering

Explanation:

Because the rock is exposed to the ocean, the constant push and pull of the water against the rock erodes the material away and moves it elsewhere. The wind likely aided in this process as well. This caused the big gap in the center of the rock.

A reactant decomposes with a half-life of 29.5 s when its initial concentration is 0.229 M. When the initial concentration is 0.
Dmitrij [34]

Answer :

The order of reaction is, 0 (zero order reaction).

The value of rate constant is, 0.00388Ms^{-1}

Explanation :

Half life : It is defined as the time in which the concentration of a reactant is reduced to half of its original value.

The general expression of half-life for nth order is:

t_{1/2}\propto \frac{1}{[A_o]^{n-1}}

or,

\frac{t_{1/2}_1}{t_{1/2}_2}=\frac{[A_2]^{n-1}}{[A_1]^{n-1}}

or,

n=\left(\frac{\log\frac{(t_{1/2})_1}{(t_{1/2})_2}}{\log\frac{(A)_2}{(A)_1}}\right )+1           .............(1)

where,

t_{1/2} = half-life of the reaction

n = order of reaction

[A] = concentration

As we are given:

Initial concentration of A = 0.229 M

Final concentration of A = 0.639 M

Initial half-life of the reaction = 29.5 s

Final half-life of the reaction = 82.3 s

Now put all the given values in the above formula 1, we get:

n=\left (\frac{\log \frac{29.5}{82.3}}{\log\frac{0.639}{0.229}}\right )+1

n=0.000196\approx 0

Thus, the order of reaction is, 0 (zero order reaction).

Now we have to determine the rate constant.

To calculate the rate constant for zero order the expression will be:

t_{1/2}=\frac{[A_o]}{2k}

When,

t_{1/2} = 29.5 s

[A_o] = 0.229 M

29.5s=\frac{0.229M}{2k}

k=0.00388Ms^{-1}

Thus, the value of rate constant is, 0.00388Ms^{-1}

er solutions can be produced by mixing a weak acid with its conjugate base or by mixing a weak base with its conjugate acid. The
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

You need to add 19,5 mmol of acetates

Explanation:

Using the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation:

pH = pKa + log₁₀ [base]/[acid]

For the buffer of acetates:

pH = pKa + log₁₀ [CH₃COO⁻]/[CH₃COOH]

As pH you want is 5,03, pka is 4,74 and milimoles of acetic acid are 10:

5,03 = 4,74 + log₁₀ [CH₃COO⁻]/[10]

1,95 = [CH₃COO⁻]/[10]

<em>[CH₃COO⁻] = 19,5 milimoles</em>

Thus, to produce an acetate buffer of 5,03 having 10 mmol of acetic acid, you need to add 19,5 mmol of acetates.

I hope it helps!
