A selectively permeable membrane separates solution a and

1 answer:

3 0

The water molecules will flow from b to a due to osmosis.

Osmosis is where water molecules will flow from a region of higher water potential to a region of lower water potential, through a selectively permeable membrane.

When the water molecule concentration is higher, it has a higher water potential top. Water potential is the tendency for them to flow to a lower region.

The net movement will stop until both sides of the solution has a same water potential.

Calculate the ΔG°rxn using the following information at 298K. 2 HNO3(aq) + NO(g) → 3 NO2(g) + H2O(l) ΔG°rxn = ? ΔH°f (kJ/mol) -2

Mkey [24]

Answer:

ΔG°rxn = +50.8 kJ/mol

Explanation:

It is possible to obtain ΔG°rxn of a reaction at certain temperature from ΔH°rxn and S°rxn, thus:

ΔG°rxn = ΔH°rxn - T×S°rxn (1)

In the reaction:

2 HNO3(aq) + NO(g) → 3 NO2(g) + H2O(l)

ΔH°rxn = 3×ΔHfNO2 + ΔHfH2O - (2×ΔHfHNO3 + ΔHfNO)

ΔH°rxn = 3×33.2kJ/mol + (-285.8kJ/mol) - (2×-207.0kJ/mol + 91.3kJ/mol)}

ΔH°rxn = 136.5kJ/mol

And S°:

S°rxn = 3×S°NO2 + S°H2O - (2×S°HNO3 + S°NO)

ΔH°rxn = 3×0.2401kJ/molK + (0.0700kJ/molK) - (2×0.146kJ/molK + 0.2108kJ/molK)

ΔH°rxn = 0.2875kJ/molK

And replacing in (1) at 298K:

ΔG°rxn = 136.5kJ/mol - 298K×0.2875kJ/molK

ΔG°rxn = +50.8 kJ/mol

The decomposition of acetaldehyde is a second order reaction with a rate constant of 4.71 10−8 L/mol/s. What is the instantaneou

pochemuha

Answer: Rate of decomposition of acetaldehyde in a solution is $1.45\times 10^{-14}mol/Ls$

Explanation:

Rate law says that rate of a reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of the reactants each raised to a stoichiometric coefficient determined experimentally called as order.
