So here's how you find the answer:

Given: (rate constants)

K₁ = 4.0 x 10⁻⁴ M⁻¹s⁻¹.
T₁ = 25.0 C = 293 K.
k₂ = 2.6 x10⁻³ M⁻¹s⁻¹.
T₂ = 42.4 C = 315.4 K.
R = 8,314 J/K·mol.

Use the equation:

ln(k₁/k₂) = Ea/R (1/T₂ - 1/T₁).

Transpose:

Ea = R·T₁·T₂ / (T₁ - T₂) · ln(k₁/k₂)

Substitute within the given transposed equation:

<span>Ea = 8,314 J/K·mol · 293 K · 315.4 K ÷ (293 K - 315.4 K) · ln (4.0 x 10⁻⁴ M⁻¹s⁻¹/ 2.6 x 10⁻³ M⁻¹s⁻¹).
</span>
Continuing the solution we get:

<span>Ea = 768315 J·K/mol ÷ (-22,4 K) * (-1.87)
</span>
The value of EA is:

<span>Ea = 64140.58 J/mol ÷ 1000 J/kJ = 64.140 kJ/mol.</span>

What is the mass of 5 moles of Fe2(CO3)3 ?
sineoko [7]

Answer:

1218.585

Explanation:

Looking at the subscripts we know there are 2 atoms of Fe, 3 atoms of C, and 6 of O.

Take the molar mass of each atom (from the periodic table) and multiply by the # of atoms

Fe: 55.845×2= 111.69

C: 12.011×3= 36.033

O:15.999×6=95.994

Add the values together: 243.717 g/mol

That is 1 mole of the molecule. Multiply by 5 for the final answer.

243.717×5=1218.585

Which of the following is an example of mechanical weathering
777dan777 [17]
The answer is A-Gravity. Why? This is because B and C are examples of chemical weathering and not mechanical. Although choice D may seem viable lava intrusion is not a direct cause of mechanical weathering although lava pushing upward may help in aiding mechanical weathering it would not be considered a big enough cause, thus gravity is the correct answer.

What are you suppose to do for number 8?
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

See the images below  

Step-by-step explanation:

To draw a dot diagram of an atom, you locate the element in the Periodic Table and figure out how many valence electrons it has. Then you distribute the electrons as dots around the atom,

a. Silicon.

Si is in Group 14, so it has four valence electrons.

b. Xenon

Xenon is in Group 18, so it has eight valence electrons. We group them as four pairs around the xenon atom.

c. Calcium

Calcium is in Group 2, so it has two valence electrons. They are in a single subshell, so we write them as a pair on the calcium atom.

d. Water

Oxygen is in Group 16, so it has six valence electrons. The hydrogen atoms each contribute one electron, so there are eight valence electrons.

Chemists often use a dash to represent a pair of electrons in a bond.
