Answer:

The rate of the over all reaction is ;

R=K[A_2]^{1/2}[B]

Explanation:

Step 1 : A_2\rightleftharpoons 2 A fast

Step 2  : A + B\rightarrow AB slow

Equilibrium constant of the reaction in step 1:

K_1=\frac{[A]^2}{[A_2]}....[1]

Overall reaction:

A_2 + 2 B \rightarrow 2 AB

When there is a chemical reaction which taking place in more than 1 step than the rate of the over all reaction is determined by the slowest step occurring during that process;

Here step 2 is slow step, so the rate of the reaction will be;

R=k[A][B]..[2]

Putting value of [A] from [1] in [2]:

R=k\times \sqrt{K_1\times [A_2]}\times [B]

K=k\times (K_1)^{1/2}

K = rate constant of the reaction

The rate of the over all reaction is ;

R=K[A_2]^{1/2}[B]

Which of the following is the simplest ketone used as an organic solvent?
Lyrx [107]

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A ketone is an organic functional group that contains a carbon and oxygen atom bonded together through a double bond, that is, C=O.

For example, acetone CH_{3}-CO-CH_{3} is a ketone.

Whereas a hydrocodone is a drug which is used to relieve from moderate to sever pain.It is mostly combined with other drugs and resulting in a chemical formula C_{18}H_{21}NO_{3}.C_{4}H_{6}O_{6}.

A camphor is a volatile white color substance with chemical formula C_{10}H_{16}O. It has aromatic smell and its taste is bitter.

A menthone is also an organic compound with chemical formula C_{10}H_{18}O.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options the simplest ketone used as an organic solvent is acetone.

How much energy will it take to raise the temperature of 75.0 g of water from 20.0°C to 55.0°C?
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

We can use heat = mcΔT to determine the amount of heat, but first we need to determine ΔT. Because the final temperature of the water is 55°C and the initial temperature is 20.0°C, ΔT is as follows:

ΔT = Tfinal − Tinitial = 55.0°C − 20.0°C = 35.0°C

given the specific heat of water as 1 cal/g·°C. Substitute the known values into heat = mcΔT and solve for amount of heat:

=  heat=(75.0 g)(1 cal/ g· °C )(35.0°C) =

= 75x1x35=2625 cal
