<span>This would be the activation energy. This is usually in the form of heat, which allows the reaction to undergo some sort of transition. Many times, enzymes can be used as catalysts to lower the activation energy required for the reaction to take place.</span>

Calcula el pH de las siguientes sustancias formadas durante una erupción volcánica:
Virty [35]

<em>Calculate the pH of the following substances formed during a volcanic eruption: </em>

<em>• Acid rain if the [H +] is 1.9 x 10-5 </em>

<em>• Sulfurous acid if [H +] = 0.10 </em>

<em>• Nitric acid if [H +] = 0.11</em>

<em />

<h3>Further explanation  </h3>

pH is the degree of acidity of a solution that depends on the concentration of H⁺ ions. The greater the value the more acidic the solution and the smaller the pH.  

pH = - log [H⁺]  

  • pH acid rain

\tt pH=-log[1.9\times 10^{-5}]\\\\pH=5-log1.9\\\\pH=4.72

  • pH Sulfurous acid

\tt pH=-log[10^{-1}]\\\\pH=1

  • pH Nitric acid

\tt pH=-log[11\times 10^{-2}]\\\\pH=2-log~11=0.959

The size (radius) of an oxygen molecule is about 2.0 ×10−10m. Make a rough estimate of the pressure at which the finite volume o
belka [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

We can calculate the volume  of the oxygen molecule as the radius of oxygen molecule is given as 2×10⁻¹⁰m.

We know that volume=4/3×πr³

volume =4/3×π(2.0×10⁻¹⁰m)³

volume=33.40×10⁻³⁰m³

Volume of oxygen molecule=33.40×10⁻³⁰m³

we know the ideal gas equation as:

PV=nRT

k=R/Na

R=k×Na

PV=n×k×Na×T

n×Na=N

PV=Nkt

p is pressure of gas

v is volume  of gas

T is temperature of gas

N is numbetr of molecules

Na is avagadros number

k is boltzmann constant =1.38×10⁻²³J/K

R is real gas constant

So to calculate pressure using the  formula;

PV=NkT

P=NkT/V

Since there is only one molecule of oxygen so N=1

P=[1×1.38×10⁻²³J/K×300]/[33.40×10⁻³⁰m³

p=12.39×10⁷Pascal

A second-order reaction has a rate law: rate = k[a]2, where k = 0.150 m−1s−1. If the initial concentration of a is 0.250 m, what
Cerrena [4.2K]

Rate law for the given 2nd order reaction is:

Rate = k[a]2

Given data:

rate constant k = 0.150 m-1s-1

initial concentration, [a] = 0.250 M

reaction time, t = 5.00 min = 5.00 min * 60 s/s = 300 s

To determine:

Concentration at time t = 300 s i.e. [a]_{t}

Calculations:

The second order rate equation is:

1/[a]_{t} = kt +1/[a]

substituting for k,t and [a] we get:

1/[a]t = 0.150 M-1s-1 * 300 s + 1/[0.250]M

1/[a]t = 49 M-1

[a]t = 1/49 M-1 = 0.0204 M

Hence the concentration of 'a' after t = 5min is 0.020 M

Ber [7]

Answer:

Alchemy is a practice of making gold from other metals.

Explanation:

Alchemy is a method which is practiced by the ancient scientists of Europe, Africa and Asia trying to produced gold from other metals. This method was failed to produced gold from metals and all scientist suggested that metals can not be converted into gold. Greeks were the people who presented the theory of alchemy in the first few centuries of CE.
