The decomposition of HBr(g) into elemental species is found to have a rate constant of 4.2 ×10−3atm s−1. If 2.00 atm of HBr are

present initially, how many minutes must elapse to achieve complete conversion into elements (i.e. all HBr(g) is gone)? Assume a completely one-way reaction.

Answer:

7,94 minutes

Explanation:

If the descomposition of HBr(gr) into elemental species have a rate constant, then this reaction belongs to a zero-order reaction kinetics, where the r<em>eaction rate does not depend on the concentration of the reactants. </em>

For the zero-order reactions, concentration-time equation can be written as follows:

                                          [A] = - Kt + [Ao]

where:

  • [A]: concentration of the reactant A at the <em>t </em>time,
  • [A]o: initial concentration of the reactant A,
  • K: rate constant,
  • t: elapsed time of the reaction

<u>To solve the problem, we just replace our data in the concentration-time equation, and we clear the value of t.</u>

Data:

K = 4.2 ×10−3atm/s,  

[A]o=[HBr]o= 2 atm,  

[A]=[HBr]=0 atm (all HBr(g) is gone)

<em>We clear the incognita :</em>

[A] = - Kt + [Ao]............. Kt =  [Ao] - [A]

                                        t  = ([Ao] - [A])/K

<em>We replace the numerical values:</em>

t = (2 atm - 0 atm)/4.2 ×10−3atm/s = 476,19 s = 7,94 minutes

So, we need 7,94 minutes to achieve complete conversion into elements ([HBr]=0).

How is the law of conservation of matter represented in a chemical reaction?
blondinia [14]

Answer:

By balancing the chemical equation  

Explanation:

The Law of Conservation of Matter states that matter cannot be destroyed nor created.

That is, you must have the same amount of matter before and after a reaction.

Atoms are made of matter, so you must have the same number of each type of atom in the reactants as in the products. You must balance the equation.

Consider the reaction

2H₂ + O₂ ⟶ 2H₂O

You must have 2s in front of H₂ and H₂O to balance the atoms.

They give you four atoms of H and two atoms of O on each side of the arrow.

Which of the following features is common to both acids and bases? A. ability to burn skin B. similar taste C. pH measurements g
Lynna [10]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

            Correct Option-A (Ability to burn skin)

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

                    When skin tissues are exposed to Acids or Bases a chemical burn occurs as both of these substances are corrosive in nature. These burns occur without providing any heat, results from a very fast reaction, are extremely painful and causes damage to structures present under skin.

                    Option-B is incorrect because Acids taste sour, while, Bases taste bitter.

                    Option-C is incorrect because pH of Acids is less than 7 while, pH of Bases is greater than 7.
