<em>Role of a catalysts in chemical reactions:</em>
<span><em>Catalyst is a substance, usually used in small amounts relative to the reactants, that modifies and increases the rate of a reaction without being consumed in the process.</em></span>

Svetlanka [38]
Increase the Surface Area of the Reactants. Increasing the surface area of the reactants increases the rate of the reaction. More surface area means more collisions of the reactant molecules and an increased rate of the reaction. This occurs when reactants are made to react in powdered form

What is the pH when the hydrogen ion concentration is 1 x 10-3 M?
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

e. 3

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem we need to keep in mind the definition of pH:

  • pH = -log[H⁺]

As stated by the problem, the hydrogen ion concentration, [H⁺], is 1x10⁻³ M.

As all required information is available, we now can <u>calculate the pH</u>:

  • pH = -log(1x10⁻³ M)
  • pH = 3

The correct option is thus e.

A hot lump of 39.9 g of iron at an initial temperature of 78.1 °C is placed in 50.0 mL H 2 O initially at 25.0 °C and allowed to
Drupady [299]

Answer : The final temperature of the mixture is 29.6^oC

Explanation :

In this problem we assumed that heat given by the hot body is equal to the heat taken by the cold body.

q_1=-q_2

m_1\times c_1\times (T_f-T_1)=-m_2\times c_2\times (T_f-T_2)

where,

c_1 = specific heat of iron = 0.499J/g^oC

c_2 = specific heat of water = 4.18J/g^oC

m_1 = mass of iron = 39.9 g

m_2 = mass of water  = Density\times Volume=1g/mL\times 50.0mL=50.0g

T_f = final temperature of mixture = ?

T_1 = initial temperature of iron = 78.1^oC

T_2 = initial temperature of water = 25.0^oC

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get

(39.9g)\times (0.499J/g^oC)\times (T_f-78.1)^oC=-(50.0g)\times 4.18J/g^oC\times (T_f-25.0)^oC

T_f=29.6^oC

Therefore, the final temperature of the mixture is 29.6^oC
