The decomposition of N_2O_5(g) following 1st order kinetics. N_2O_5(g) to N_2O_4(g) + ½ O_2(g) If 2.56 mg of N_2O_5 is initially

present in a container and 2.50 mg remains after 4.26 min, what is the rate constant in 1/s?

Answer: The rate constant is 0.334s^{-1}

Explanation ;

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{a}{a-x}

where,

k = rate constant  = ?

t = age of sample  = 4.26 min

a =  initial amount of the reactant  = 2.56 mg

a - x = amount left after decay process  = 2.50 mg

Now put all the given values in above equation to calculate the rate constant ,we get

4.26=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{2.56}{2.50}

k=\frac{2.303}{4.26}\log\frac{2.56}{2.50}

k=5.57\times 10^{-3}min^{-1}=5.57\times 10^{-3}\times 60s^{-1}=0.334s^{-1}

Thus rate constant is [tex]0.334s^{-1}

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

Solid gallium is a blue-gray metal with orthorhombic crystalline structure; very pure gallium has a stunning silvery color. Gallium is solid at normal room temperatures, but as well as mercury, cesium, and rubidium it becomes liquid when heated slightly

Explanation:

gallium is like water it freezes to turn solid!

How does the shape of the Earth affect the climate of different regions?<br><br>will give brainliest
borishaifa [10]
Because the Earth<span> is a sphere, the surface gets much more intense sunlight, hence heat, at the equator than at the poles.</span>
The distribution of heat around the globe, and through the year, coupled with the physical properties of air, produce a distinctive pattern of climatic zones.
