Consider the mechanism. Step 1: A+B↽−−⇀CA+B↽−−⇀C equilibrium Step 2: C+A⟶DC+A⟶D slow Overall: 2A+B⟶D2A+B⟶D Determine the rate la
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

rate = k[A][B] where k = k₂K

Explanation:

Your mechanism is a slow step with a prior equilibrium:

\begin{array}{rrcl}\text{Step 1}:& \text{A + B} & \xrightarrow [k_{-1}]{k_{1}} & \text{C}\\\text{Step 2}: & \text{C + A} & \xrightarrow [ ]{k_{2}} & \text{D}\\\text{Overall}: & \text{2A + B} & \longrightarrow \, & \text{D}\\\end{array}

(The arrow in Step 1 should be equilibrium arrows).

1. Write the rate equations:

-\dfrac{\text{d[A]}}{\text{d}t} = -\dfrac{\text{d[B]}}{\text{d}t} = -k_{1}[\text{A}][\text{B}] + k_{1}[\text{C}]\\\\\dfrac{\text{d[C]}}{\text{d}t} = k_{1}[\text{A}][\text{B}] - k_{2}[\text{C}]\\\\\dfrac{\text{d[D]}}{\text{d}t} = k_{2}[\text{C}]

2. Derive the rate law

Assume k₋₁ ≫ k₂.  

Then, in effect, we have an equilibrium that is only slightly disturbed by C slowly reacting to form D.  

In an equilibrium, the forward and reverse rates are equal:

k₁[A][B] = k₋₁[C]

[C] = (k₁/k₋₁)[A][B] = K[A][B] (K is the equilibrium constant)

rate = d[D]/dt = k₂[C] = k₂K[A][B] = k[A][B]

The rate law is  

rate = k[A][B] where k = k₂K

A beach ball has a mass of 5 g and a volume of 20 cm3. What is the object's density?
ivann1987 [24]
Mass = 5 g

volume = 20 cm³

density = mass / volume

therefore:

D = m / V

D = 5 / 20

D = 0.25 g/cm³

A cathode ray tube is made of glass with a small amount of some kind of gas in it. It has metal electrodes at each end to pick u
Butoxors [25]

Answer:

One of the main uses of the cathode ray tube is in the Cathode  ray oscilloscope

Explanation:

Cathode rays are produced when a gas in an evacuated glass at very low pressure and high pressure breaks up into positive and negative ions. the negative ions move towards the anode(positive electrode) while the positive ions move towards the cathode(negative electrode), and there they knock off electrons (which are known as cathode rays) from the metal plate of the cathode.

Cathode ray tubes are mainly used in oscilloscopes, television picture tubes and in computer screens.

The cathode ray oscilloscope is used in a.c. and d.c. voltage measurements, observation of waveforms, time measurements, etc.
