The activation energy for the reaction NO2 (g )+ CO (g) ⟶ NO (g) + CO2 (g) is Ea = 218 kJ/mol and the change in enthalpy for the

reaction is ΔH = -252 kJ/mol . What is the activation energy for the reverse reaction? Enter your answer numerically and in terms of kJ/mol.

Answer:

470\frac{KJ}{mol}

Explanation:

The activation energy represents the energy barrier that reagents must pass to transform into products (or products to transform into reagents in a reverse reaction)

For any reaction, the change in enthalpy is related to the activation energy by the equation

\Delta H =E_{a\ direct}-E_{a\ reverse}

So, the activation energy for the reverse reaction is

E_{a\ reverse}=E_{a\ direct}-\Delta H =218 \frac{KJ}{mol} - (-252)\frac{KJ}{mol}=470\frac{KJ}{mol}

What is the difference between mass and weight?
Olin [163]

Explanation:

The mass of an object is a measure of the object's inertial property, or the amount of matter it contains. The weight of an object is a measure of the force exerted on the object by gravity, or the force needed to support it. The pull of gravity on the earth gives an object a downward acceleration of about 9.8 m/s2.
