NO reacts with Br2 in the gas phase according to the following chemical equation: 2NO(g) +Br2(g)2NOBr(g) It is observed that, wh

en the concentration of Br2 is reduced to 1/3 of its initial value, the rate of the reaction is also reduced to 1/3 of its initial value. When the concentration of NO is multiplied by 3.69, the rate of the reaction increases by a factor of 13.6. (a) Write the rate expression for this reaction, and give the units of the rate constant k, assuming concentration is expressed as mol L-1 and time is in second

Answer:

a) rate=r=k[NO]^{2} [Br_{2}]^{1}

b) k=\frac{1}{s*M^{2}}

Explanation:

First of all you need to indicate the reaction order of each reactant ( NO and Br_{2}):

1.  Br_{2}

Note that if Br_{2} concentration ([Br_{2} ]) is reduced to 1/3 of its initial value, the rate of the reaction is also reduced to 1/3 of its initial value, it means:

[Br_{2} ]=1/3 then r=1/3

As the change in the rate of the reaction is equal to the change of the initial concentration of  Br_{2}, you could concluded that the reaction is first order with respect to  Br_{2}

2. NO

Now, note that if NO concentration ([NO]) is multiplied by 3.69, the rate of the reaction increases by a factor of 13.6. In this case, to know the ratio could be advisable divide the rate of the reaction (13.6) over the factor whereby was multiplied the concentration (3.69), as follows:

\frac{13.6}{3.69}=3.69

As the result is the same factor 3.69 you could concluded that the change of the rate of reaction is proportional to the square of the concentration of A:

r=[NO]^{2} =3.68^{2} =13.6

It means that the reaction is second order with respect to NO

3. Rate Expression

Remember that the rate expression of the reactions depend on the concentration of each reactant and its order. In this case we have 2 reactants: NO and Br_{2}, then we have a rate law depending of  2 concentrations, as follows:

<h2>rate=r=k[NO]^{2} [Br_{2}]^{1}</h2>

Note that the expression is the result of the concentration of each reactant raised to its reaction order (previously determined)

<em>Note: I hope that you do not mix up the use of the rates of reaction of each reactant, that is experimentally determined, with the stoichiometric coefficient, are different.</em>

4. Rate constant units (k)

Assuming concentration is expressed as \frac{mol}{L}=M and time is in second, to find the units of k we need to solve an equation with units and with supporting of the rate equation previously obtained, as follows:

r=k[NO]^{2} [Br_{2}]^{1}

Where:

[r]=[\frac{M}{s}]

[[NO]]=[M]

[ [Br_{2}]]=[M]

Then:

\frac{M}{s}=kM^{2} M^{1}

\frac{M}{s}=kM^{3}

\frac{M}{s*M^{3}}=k

The units of the rate constant k are:

k=\frac{1}{s*M^{2}}

All MOS devices are subject to damage from:________
Alchen [17]

Answer:

  d. all of these

Explanation:

Electrostatic discharge will generally produce excess voltage in a local area that results in excessive current and excessive heat. It will blast a crater in an MOS device, or melt bond wires, or cause damage of other sorts. In short, MOS devices are subject to damage from "all of these."

one number is 11 more than another number. find the two number if three times the larger number exceeds four times the smaller n
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

a = 40

b = 29

Explanation:

Give a place holder for the numbers that we don't know.

Lets call the two numbers a and b.

From the given info, we can write an expression and solve it:

"one number is 11 more than another number"

a = 11 + b

from this, we know that a > b.

''three times the larger number exceeds four times the smaller number by 4"

3a = 4b + 4

Now we have 2 equations, we can use them to solve using whatever method you want.

a = 11 + b

3a = 4b + 4

I will be using matrices RREF to solve for this.

a - b = 11

3a - 4b = 4

\begin{bmatrix}1 & -1  & 11\\3 & -4 & 4 \end{bmatrix}

\begin{bmatrix}1 & 0  & 40\\0 & 1 & 29 \end{bmatrix}

a = 40

b = 29

List and describe three classifications of burns to the body.
DiKsa [7]

AnswerWhat Are the Classifications of Burns? Burns are classified as first-, second-, or third-degree, depending on how deep and severe they penetrate the skin's surface. First-degree burns affect only the epidermis, or outer layer of skin. The burn site is red, painful, dry, and with no blisters.
