Answer:

It increases by a factor of eight

Explanation:

When temperature is held constant, gas pressure changes according the volume, in undirectly proportion.

Volume increases → Pressure decreases

Volume decreases → Pressure increases

As volume gas, was reducted from 4L to 0.5L, it was reduced by 1/8, so the pressure gas was increased by a factor of eight.

Reaction rate is expressed in terms of changes in the concentration of reactants and products. Write a balanced equation for the

KengaRu [80]

Answer : The balanced equations will be:

$CH_4+2O_2\rightarrow 2H_2O+CO_2$

Explanation :

The general rate of reaction is,

$aA+bB\rightarrow cC+dD$

Rate of reaction : It is defined as the change in the concentration of any one of the reactants or products per unit time.

The expression for rate of reaction will be :

$\text{Rate of disappearance of A}=-\frac{1}{a}\frac{d[A]}{dt}$

$\text{Rate of disappearance of B}=-\frac{1}{b}\frac{d[B]}{dt}$

$\text{Rate of formation of C}=+\frac{1}{c}\frac{d[C]}{dt}$

$\text{Rate of formation of D}=+\frac{1}{d}\frac{d[D]}{dt}$

$Rate=-\frac{1}{a}\frac{d[A]}{dt}=-\frac{1}{b}\frac{d[B]}{dt}=+\frac{1}{c}\frac{d[C]}{dt}=+\frac{1}{d}\frac{d[D]}{dt}$

From this we conclude that,

In the rate of reaction, A and B are the reactants and C and D are the products.

a, b, c and d are the stoichiometric coefficient of A, B, C and D respectively.

The negative sign along with the reactant terms is used simply to show that the concentration of the reactant is decreasing and positive sign along with the product terms is used simply to show that the concentration of the product is increasing.

Now we have to determine the balanced equations corresponding to the following rate expressions.

$Rate=-\frac{d[CH_4]}{dt}=-\frac{1}{2}\frac{d[O_2]}{dt}=+\frac{1}{2}\frac{d[H_2O]}{dt}=+\frac{d[CO_2]}{dt}$

The balanced equations will be:

$CH_4+2O_2\rightarrow 2H_2O+CO_2$

Calculate the molarity of the sodium acetate solution as described below.

Airida [17]

Answer:

This question is incomplete.

Explanation:

This question is incomplete because of the absence of given mass and volume, however, the steps below will help solve the completed question. The molarity (M) of a solution is the number of moles of solute per liter of solvent. The formula is illustrated below;

Molarity = number of moles (n) / volume (in liter or dm³)

To calculate the number of moles of NaC₂H₃O₂, we say

number of moles (n) =

given or measured mass of NaC₂H₃O₂ ÷ molar mass of NaC₂H₃O₂

The volume of the solvent must be in liter (same as dm³). Thus, to convert mL to liter, we divide by 1000

The unit for Molarity is M (Molar concentration), mol/L or mol/dm³
