Answer:

The activation energy is 164.02 kJ/mol

Explanation:

Log (k2/k1) = Ea/2.303R × [1/T1 - 1/T2]

k1 = 8.9×10^-4 s^-1

k2 = 9.83×10^-3 s^-1

R = 8.314 J/mol.K

T1 = 540 K

T2 = 578 K

Log (9.83×10^-3/8.9×10^-4) = Ea/2.303×8.314 × [1/540 - 1/578]

1.043 = 6.359×10^-6Ea

Ea = 1.043/6.359×10^-6 = 164020 J/mol = 164020/1000 = 164.02 kJ/mol

daser333 [38]
To determine the temperature of the gas, we need to assume ideal gas to use the equation PV=nRT where P represents the pressure, V is the volume, n is the number of moles, T is the temperature and R is the universal gas constant. We calculate as follows:

PV = nRT
T = PV / nR

T = (1.26 atm) ( 208 L ) / 0.08205 L-atm/mol-K ( 9.95 mol )
T = 321.02 K

How many grams of fluorine must be reacted with excess lithium iodide to produce 10.0 grams of lithium fluoride?
rewona [7]
Answer:
             7.32 g of F₂

Solution:
              The equation is as follow,

                                   2 LiI  +  F₂    →    2 LiF  +  I₂

According to equation,

           51.88 g (2 mole) of LiF is produced from  =  37.99 g (1 mole) F₂
So,
                          10 g of LiF will be produced by  =  X g of F₂

Solving for X,
                      X  =  (10 g × 37.99 g) ÷ 51.88 g

                      X  =  7.32 g of F₂

True or False : An object can be in motion and not in motion at the same time depending on which frame of reference you are comp
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Yes I agree object can be in motion and in not motion at the same time for example there are two men travelling on the bus one person is A another person is B. the person be B rest so by seeing person be the person A also sits but the person see who saw the person be B move along with person C so the the person be B is in rest for person Abut is motion for a person C.
