Answer:

The false statement is :

  • Pyrite is an ore of gold and is used in jewelry making.
  • Cobalt is not used in medicine.

Explanation:

Pyrite is an ore of iron sulfide found on the Earth and in coal, limestone and in many deposits of metallic ores. Due to its luster and pale yellowish color it appears as gold due to which it is also termed as Fool's gold.

It is used in firearms , in production of sulfur dioxide gas, etc.

Cobalt is used as medicine to treat cancer patient. Co-60 is used in treatment of cancer in which gamma rays produced by Co-60 are used  to kill tumor cells in a cancer patient.

The reaction A + 2B → products was found to follow the rate law: rate = k[A] 2[B]. Predict by what factor the rate of reaction w
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

By a factor of 12

Explanation:

For the reaction;

A + 2B → products

The rate law is;

rate = k[A]²[B]

As you can see, the rate is proportional to the square of the concentration of  A  and the of the concentration of  B .

Let's say initially, [A] = x, [B] = y

The rate law in this case is equal to;

rate1 = k. x².y

Now you double the concentration of A and triple the concentration of B.

[A] = 2x, [B] = 3y

The new rate law is given as;

rate2 = k . (2x)². (3y)

rate2 = k . 4x² . 3y

rate2 = 12 k . x² . y

Comparing rate 2 and rate 1, the ratio is given as; rate 2/ rate 1 = 12

Therefore the rate has increased by a factor of 12.
