Answer:

The initial temperature was  36.4^\circ \:C

Explanation:

\Delta t=\frac{q}{m\cdot C_s}=\frac{5.83\times10^5}{2190\times 4.184}\\\\=63.6^\circ\:C

The temperature difference =100-63.6=36.4^\circ\:C

The decomposition of hydrogen peroxide follows first order kinetics and has a rate constant of 2.54 x 10-4 s-1 at a certain temp
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

[A]_0=0.400M

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, since the first-order reaction is said to be linearly related to the rate of reaction:

r=-k[A]

Whereas [A] is the concentration of hydrogen peroxide, when writing it as a differential equation we have:

\frac{d[A]}{dt} =-k[A]

Which integrated is:

ln(\frac{[A]}{[A]_0} )=-kt

And we can calculate the initial concentration of the hydrogen peroxide as follows:

[A]_0=\frac{[A]}{exp(-kt)}

Thus, for the given data, we obtain:

[A]_0=\frac{0.321M}{exp(-2.54x10^{-4}s^{-1}*855s)}

[A]_0=0.400M

Best regards!

A student balances the following redox reaction using half-reactions.
ICE Princess25 [194]
Answer: 6.

Explanation:

1) Aluminum

Al^0-3e^----\ \textgreater \ Al^{3+}

So each atom of aluminum lost 3 electrons to pass from 0 oxidation state to 3+ oxidation state.

2) Manganesium

Mn^{2+}+2e^{-}---\ \textgreater \ Mn

So, each ion of Mn(2+) gained 2 electrons pass from 2+ oxidation state to 0.

3) Balance

Multiply aluminum half-reaction (oxidation) by 2 and multiply manganesium half-raction (reduction) by 3:

2Al^{0}-6e^{-}---\ \textgreater \ 2Al^{3+}

3Mn^{2+}+6e^{-}---\ \textgreater \ 3Mn^{0}

4) Net equation

Add the two half-equations:

2Al^{0}+3Mn^{2+}----\ \textgreater \ 2Al^{3+}+3Mn^{0}

As you see the left side has 2 Al, 3Mn, and 3*2 positive charges.

The right side has 2 Al, 3 Mn, and 2*3 positive charges.

So, the equation is balanced.

5) Count the number of electrons involved.

As you see 2 atoms of aluminum lost 6 electrons (3 each).

That is the answer to the question. 6 electrons will be lost.

What is a half-life of an isotope? please help
N76 [4]

Answer:

Explanation:

Hello! Hope this helps!

One important measure of the rate at which a radioactive substance decays is called half-life, or t1/2. Half-life is the amount of time needed for one half of a given quantity of a substance to decay. Half-lives as short as 10–6 second and as long as 109 years are common.
