A sample of 0.900 mol N2O is placed in a sealed

Chemistry
1 answer:
Anettt [7]3 years ago

Answer:

  • <u>t = 284 min (rounded to 3 significant figures).</u>

Explanation:

<u>1. Decomposition reaction:</u>

Chemical equation:

  • 2N₂O → 2N₂ + O₂

<u>2. First order reaction:</u>

Rate law:

r=-\frac{d[N_2O]}{dt}= k[N_2O]\\ \\ \frac{d[N_2O]}{dt}= -k[N_2O]

Integrated rate law:

\frac{d[N_2O]}{[N_2O]}=-kdt\\ \\ ln[N_2O]-ln[N_2O]_0=-kt

<u>3. Determine the rate constant, k</u>

  • t = 42.0 min, [N₂O] = 0.640 mol

  • [N₂O]₀ = 0.900

  • ln(0.640)-ln(0.900)=-k(42.0min)

  • k = 0.00812 min⁻¹

<u>4. Time taken for the reaction to be 90.0% complete</u>

  • [N₂O] = 0.100[N₂O]=0.100×0.900 mol = 0.0900 mol

  • ln(0.0900) - ln(0.900) = - 0.00812 min⁻¹ × t

  • t = (2.30 / 0.00812) min ≈ 283.6 min ≈ 284 min (rounded to 3 significant figures).

What does a fluorine ion have in common with a neon and a sodium ion
DanielleElmas [232]
The atomic number (Z) of the 3 elements F, Ne, and Na, are 9, 10, and 11.

Explanation:

Now Z refers to the number of protons in the element's nucleus, and protons are POSITIVELY charged particles. So a fluoride ion, F−, has 10 electrons rather than 9 (why?), a neutral neon atom has 10 electrons, and a sodium ion, Na+, also has 10 electrons (why?).

So the 3 species are ISOELECTRONIC; they possess the same number of electrons. 

You should look at the Periodic Table to confirm the electron number. Elements are (usually) electrically neutral (sometimes they can be ionic if they have lost or gained electrons). If there are 10 positively charged protons in the nucleus, there are NECESSARILY 10 electrons associated with the NEUTRAL atom. I don't know WHY I am capitalizing certain WORDS.

You might ask why sodium will form a positive ion, Na+, whereas F forms a negative ion, F−. This again is a Periodic phenomenon, and explicable on the basis of the electronic structure that the Table formalizes.

Neutral metals tend to be electron-rich species, which have 1 or more electrons in a valence shell remote from the nuclear charge. On the other hand, neutral non-metals have valence electrons in incomplete shells, that do not effectively shield the nuclear charge. The demonstrable consequence is that metals lose electrons to form positive ions, whereas non-metals gain electrons to form negative ions.

Why should you be careful when you heat your NaCl solution to evaporate the water?
ivolga24 [154]

Answer & Explanation:

  • If we heat the NaCl solution strongly, it boils and moves vigorously causing some of the solution to get out of the container.
  • This will cause loss of NaCl in the amount that get out of the container.
  • So, this affect the yield of the obtained NaCl after water evaporation.

Which process would require the least amount of energy?
Aleksandr [31]
Answer:<span> a) the process for the first ionization energy
</span>
<span>Every time you take a electron you're requiring more and more energy. Expelling the first one will require less energy than expelling the second and the second will require less than the third, and so on.
When you take the first one, the atom becomes positive and with that the negative forces of the electron will be more attracted to the positive charge. The more electrons that are lost, the more positive this ion will become, causing it to be more difficult to separate the electrons from the atom.
