Answer: definite proportions.


Explanation:


1) The definite proportions law states that compounds will always have the same kind of atoms (elements) in the same mass proportion (ratios).


2) For example, a molecule of water will alwys have the same mass ratio of hydrogen atoms to oxygen atoms. That is what permits to obtain the chemical formula of the water molecule as H₂O.


The mass of the two hydrogen atoms will be in a fixed ratio respect to the mass of the oxygen atoms.


Then, if you have one reactant in less proportion than the other, respect to the ratio stated by the chemical formula of water, the former will react completely (it is the limiting reactant) with the corresponding (proportional) mass of the later. Then there will be an excess of the later reactant which will not react (will remain unchanged).


The reactants can only react in the proportion defined by the chemical formulas of the final products.

If a temperature increase from 21.0 ∘c to 35.0 ∘c triples the rate constant for a reaction, what is the value of the activation
Airida [17]

Answer:

59.077 kJ/mol.

Explanation:

  • From Arrhenius law: <em>K = Ae(-Ea/RT)</em>

where, K is the rate constant of the reaction.

A is the Arrhenius factor.

Ea is the activation energy.

R is the general gas constant.

T is the temperature.

  • At different temperatures:

<em>ln(k₂/k₁) = Ea/R [(T₂-T₁)/(T₁T₂)]</em>

k₂ = 3k₁ , Ea = ??? J/mol, R = 8.314 J/mol.K, T₁ = 294.0 K, T₂ = 308.0 K.

ln(3k₁/k₁) = (Ea / 8.314 J/mol.K) [(308.0 K - 294.0 K) / (294.0 K x 308.0 K)]

∴ ln(3) = 1.859 x 10⁻⁵ Ea

∴ Ea = ln(3) / (1.859 x 10⁻⁵) = 59.077 kJ/mol.

How many moles of nitrogen trifluoride (NF3) can be produced from 9.65 mole of Fluorine gas (F2)
user100 [1]

Answer:

6.43 moles of NF₃.

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:

N₂ + 3F₂ —> 2NF₃

From the balanced equation above,

3 moles of F₂ reacted to produce 2 moles of NF₃.

Finally, we shall determine the number of mole of nitrogen trifluoride (NF₃) produced by the reaction of 9.65 moles of Fluorine gas (F₂). This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

3 moles of F₂ reacted to produce 2 moles of NF₃.

Therefore, 9.65 moles of F₂ will react to to produce = (9.65 × 2)/3 = 6.43 moles of NF₃.

Thus, 6.43 moles of NF₃ were obtained from the reaction.
