Answer:

The source of energy used to react with chlorine and methane is ultraviolet rays or in the presence of sunlight.

Explanation:

The source of energy used to react with chlorine and methane is ultraviolet rays or in the presence of sunlight.This reaction is an example of Photo-chemical reaction.

Photo-chemical reaction is the type of chemical reaction in which energy is imparted to the reactants by the light or reactions initiated by light.

The photo chemical reaction of methane with chlorine in presence of ultraviolet light is given as:

CH_4+Cl_2\overset{h\nu}\rightarrow CH_3Cl+HCl

CH_3Cl+Cl_2\overset{h\nu}\rightarrow CH_2Cl_2+HCl

CH_2Cl_2+Cl_2\overset{h\nu}\rightarrow CH_1Cl_3+HCl

CH_1Cl_3+Cl_2\overset{h\nu}\rightarrow CCl_4+HCl

A particular first-order reaction has a rate constant of 1.35 × 102 s-1 at 25.0°C. What is the magnitude of k at 95.0°C if Ea =
never [62]

Answer:

k ≈ 9,56x10³ s⁻¹

Explanation:

It is possible to solve this question using Arrhenius formula:

ln\frac{k2}{k1} = \frac{-Ea}{R} (\frac{1}{T2} -\frac{1}{T1} )

Where:

k1: 1,35x10² s⁻¹

T1: 25,0°C + 273,15 = 298,15K

Ea = 55,5 kJ/mol

R = 8,314472x10⁻³ kJ/molK

k2 : ???

T2: 95,0°C+ 273,15K = 368,15K

Solving:

ln\frac{k2}{k1} = 4,257

\frac{k2}{k1} = 70,593

{k2} = 9,53x10^3 s^{-1}

<em>k ≈ 9,56x10³ s⁻¹</em>

I hope it helps!

How many joules of heat are required to raise the temperature of 320.0 grams of water from 24.2°C to 50.8°C? Heat capacity of wa
balu736 [363]

Answer:

35750.4 Joules

Explanation:

Using the formula as follows;

Q = m × c × ∆T

Where;

Q = amount of heat (joules)

m = mass of substance (g)

c = specific heat capacity (J/g°C)

∆T = change in temperature (°C)

According to the provided information,

mass (m) = 320.0 grams

c = 4.2 J/g°C

∆T = (50.8°C - 24.2°C) = 26.6°C

Q = ?

Using; Q = m × c × ∆T

Q = 320 × 4.2 × 26.6

Q = 35750.4 J

What is the difference between a mixture and compound
bonufazy [111]
A compound is made up of a single type of molecule. A mixture, on the other hand, is made up of different substances that can be distinguished from one another.
As an example:
Water (pure water) is a compound since it's only made up of water molecules
Seawater is a mixture since it is made up of water molecules and soluble salts

The energy of a photon is ________ proportional to its wavelength. The energy of a photon is ________ proportional to its freque
topjm [15]

Answer: Inversely  ,   Directly

Explanation:

The energy of a photon is inversely proportional to its wavelength and directly proportional to its frequency.

As can be seen from this equation;

E = hv  = h c / ∧

Where E = Energy of a photon

           v = Frequency

           h = Planck Constant

           c = speed of light

           ∧  = Wave length
