Answer:

a. 113 min

Explanation:

Considering the equilibrium:-

                   2N₂O₅ ⇔ 4NO₂ + O₂

At t = 0        125 kPa

At t = teq     125 - 2x      4x        x

Thus, total pressure = 125 - 2x + 4x + x = 125 - 3x

125 - 3x = 176 kPa

x = 17 kPa

Remaining pressure of N₂O₅ = 125 - 2*17 kPa = 91 kPa

Using integrated rate law for first order kinetics as:

[A_t]=[A_0]e^{-kt}

Where,  

[A_t] is the concentration at time t

[A_0] is the initial concentration

Given that:

The rate constant, k = 2.8\times 10^{-3} min⁻¹

Initial concentration [A_0] = 125 kPa

Final concentration [A_t] = 91 kPa

Time = ?

Applying in the above equation, we get that:-

91=125e^{-2.8\times 10^{-3}\times t}

125e^{-2.8\times \:10^{-3}t}=91

-2.8\times \:10^{-3}t=\ln \left(\frac{91}{125}\right)

t=113\ min

romanna [79]

Answer:

23892U=23490Th +42He

Explanation:

In alpha decay, the daughter nucleus is two units less than the parent in atomic number. The mass number also decreases by 4 units. The daughter is thus found two places before the parent in the periodic table.

How many moles of nitrogen are present at STP if the volume is 846L
Artyom0805 [142]
A mole of any gas occupied 22.4 L at STP. So, the number of moles of nitrogen gas at STP in 846 L would be 846/22.4 = 37.8 moles of nitrogen gas.

Alternatively, you can go the long route and use the ideal gas law to solve for the number of moles of nitrogen given STP conditions (273 K and 1.00 atm). From PV = nRT, we can get n = PV/RT. Plugging in our values, and using 0.08206 L•atm/K•mol as our gas constant, R, we get n = (1.00)(846)/(0.08206)(273) = 37.8 moles, which confirms our answer.
