The second-order rate constants for the reaction of oxygen atoms ·with aromatic hydrocarbons have been measured (R. Atkinson and

J.N . Pitts, J. Phys. Chem. 79, 295 (1975)). In the reaction with benzene the rate constants are 1.44x 107dm' mor ' s ' at 300.3 K, 3.03 x 107 dm' mol"'s"' at 34 1.2K, and 6.9 x 107 dm' mor's ' at 392.2K. Find the frequency factor and activation energy of the reaction.

Answer:  Frequency factor  A = 8 × 10⁹

activation energy Ea = 15.5 KJ/Mol

Explanation: to begin, let us first define the parameters given;

K₁ = 1.44 × 10⁷dm³mol⁻¹s⁻¹

K₂ = 3.03 × 10⁷ dm³mol⁻¹s⁻¹

K₃ = 6.9 × 10 dm³mol⁻¹s⁻¹

also T₁ = 300.3 K

T₂ = 341.2 K

T₃ = 392.2 K

we know that;

㏑ K₂ / K₁ = Ea/R [1/T₁ -1/T₂]

where R is given as 8.314 J/mol-k

Ea = activation energy

K₁, K₂ = rate constant

T₁, T₂ = Temperature

therefore, ㏑ (3.03 × 10⁷/ 1.44 × 10⁷) = Ea / 8.314 [1/300.3 - 1/341.2]

this gives Ea = 15496.16 J/Mol ≈ 15.5 KJ /Mol

∴ Ea = 15.5 KJ/ Mol

also given that K = A e⁻∧Ea/RT

here A = frequency factor

∴ 6.9 × 10⁷ = A e⁻ ∧(15496.16/8.314 × 392.2)

A = 7.99 × 10⁹ = 8 × 10⁹

Is the star moving toward earth, away from earth, or is there not enough information provided to determine its motion?
ivanzaharov [21]

If a star is moving towards Earth, shift towards the blue end of the spectrum, this is called blue shift. If the star is moving away from Earth the light from that star will be red and is called red shift .

The faster a star moves towards the earth, the more its light is shifted to higher frequencies. In contrast, if a star is moving away from the earth, its light is shifted to lower frequencies on the color spectrum

if a star is moving towards Earth, it appears to emit light that is shorter in wavelength compared to a source of light that isn't moving. Because shorter wavelengths correspond to a shift towards the blue end of the spectrum, this is called blue shift.

If the star is moving away from Earth, its light will lose energy to reach Earth, therefore the light from that star will be red and is called red shift

Alan leaves Los Angeles at 8:00 A.M. to drive to San Francisco 400 mi away. He manages to travel at a steady 50 mph in spite of
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

a) Beth will reach before Alan

b)Beth has to wait 20 min for Alan to arrive

Explanation:

let 'd' be distance b/w Los Angeles and San  Francisco i.e 400 mi

considering ,

Alan's speed v_A=50mph

Beth's speed v_B=60mph

->For Alan:

The time required t_A= d/v_A= 400/50 => 8h

-> For beth:

The time required t_B=\frac{d}{v_B} =\frac{400}{60} =>6\frac{2}{3} h => 6h 40m

Alan will reach at 8:00 a.m +8h = 4:00p.m.

Beth will reach at 9:00 a.m +6h 40m= 3:40p.m.

a) Beth will reach before Alan

b)Beth has to wait 20 min for Alan to arrive

aliina [53]

Given:

P1 = 400 kPa
T1 = 110 K

T2 = 235K

Required:

P2

Solution:

Apply Gay-Lussac’s law where P/T = constant

P1/T1 = P2/T2

P2 = T2P1/T1

P2 = (235K)(400kPa) / (110K)

P2 = 855 kPa

Nearly all liquids and solids are nearly opaque to radiation at nearly all wavelengths. why is that
anastassius [24]
As radiation enters a solid or liquid, the light waves are absorbed and reflected by the atoms. the resulting reflection from an atom can be in any direction and is random. you can understand opacity in terms of the scattering of radiation. The more opaque, the more scattering.

(The truth is far more complicated than this, check out Richard Feynmans lectures on "Quantum Electro Dynamics" to learn the reality of it. )
