The initial rate of a chemical reaction was measured, and one of the reactants was found to be reacting at a rate of 0.0011 mol/

L s . The reaction was allowed to proceed for 15 minutes, and the rate was measured again. What would you predict about the second measured rate relative to the first? The reaction rate would be faster. The reaction rate would be slower. The reaction rate would be the same.

Answer:

THE REACTION RATE WOULD BE SLOWER

Explanation:

The initial reaction rate of one of the reactants is said to be 0.0011mol/l at the first measurement and after another 15minutes in which the reaction was allowed to go on, the reaction rate in respect to the first will be slower. This is because the reactant is depleted in time, it decreases as time increases and more products are formed, that is product increases. Since no new reactant was said to be added, the reaction rate will slow down as a result of reduced reactant in the system.

Average rate = change in mole of concentration / change in time

Average rate = Δ[A]/Δt = Δ[B]/Δt

Where A is reactant, B is product.

Since the reactant decreases in time, the rate is therefore -Δ[A]/Δt.

Water (2850 g ) is heated until it just begins to boil. If the water absorbs 5.53×105 j of heat in the process, what was the ini
NARA [144]

Answer is 54 °C.

<em>Explanation;</em>

We can simply use heat equation

Q = mcΔT  

 Where Q is the amount of energy transferred (J), m is the mass of the substance (kg), c is the specific heat (J g⁻¹ °C⁻¹) and ΔT is the temperature difference (°C).

Let's assume that the initial temperature is T.

Q = 5.53 × 10⁵ J

m = 2850 g

c = 4.186 J/g °C

ΔT = (100 - T)  °C     <em>Since the water is boiling, the final temperature is 100 °C.</em>

By applying the equation,

5.53 × 10⁵ J  = 2850 g  x 4.186 J/g °C  x (100 - T)  °C

(100 - T)  °C = 5.53 × 10⁵ J  / (2850 g  x 4.186 J/g °C  )

(100 - T)  °C = 46.35 °C

         T        = 100 - 46.35 C = 53.65 °C

                   ≈ 54 °C

In 2-3 sentences, explain WHY the Elodea cells placed in the salt solution look different than they do in water. Include in your
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

The phenomenon of plasmolysis.

Explanation:

When cells of Elodea are placed in a salt solution the phenomenon of plasmolysis occurs and the water will start to move out from the cell. The concentration of salts in the cell will get high due to the diffusion of salt molecules inward. The organelles will look like as they are centered to the cell by hook.

What is the driving force of convection in the atmosphere and ocean?
BartSMP [9]
<span>Mantle convection is the slow creeping motion of Earth's rocky mantle caused by convection currents carrying heat from the interior of the earth to the surface. It is one of 3 driving forces that causes tectonic plates to move around the Earth's surface.</span>

Write electron configurations for each of the following. the cations: Mg2+,Sn2+,K+,Al3+,Tl+,As3+
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

  • Mg⁺² ⇒ 1s² 2s² 2p⁶
  • Sn²⁺ ⇒ 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s² 3d¹⁰ 4p⁶ 5s² 4d¹⁰
  • K⁺ ⇒ 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶
  • Al³⁺ ⇒ 1s² 2s² 2p⁶
  • Ti⁺ ⇒ 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s² 3d¹⁰ 4p⁶ 5s² 4d¹⁰ 5p⁶ 4f¹⁴ 6s² 5d¹⁰
  • As⁺³ ⇒ 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s²

Explanation:

The <em>electron configuration</em> indicates the way the electrons of an atom or ion are structured.<u> In the case of cations</u>, by knowing the electronic configuration of the atom (which is neutral), we can find out the cations' configuration by substracting <em>n</em> outermost electrons, where <em>n</em> is the charge of the cation.

Mg⁰ ⇒ [Ne] 3s² = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s². Thus

Mg⁺² ⇒ [Ne] = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶.

In a similar fashion, the answers are:

Sn²⁺ ⇒ 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s² 3d¹⁰ 4p⁶ 5s² 4d¹⁰

K⁺ ⇒ 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶

Al³⁺ ⇒ 1s² 2s² 2p⁶

Ti⁺ ⇒ 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s² 3d¹⁰ 4p⁶ 5s² 4d¹⁰ 5p⁶ 4f¹⁴ 6s² 5d¹⁰

As⁺³ ⇒ 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s²
