For the following reaction, it is found that doubling the amount of A causes the reaction rate to quadruple. Doubling the amount

of B has absolutely no effect on the rate.
What is the best rate law equation for this reaction?

Answer:

R = k[ A ]²

Explanation:

What we are being asked is to determine the exponents in the equation:

R = k [A ]^a  [B]^b

where R =  reaction rate of the chemical reaction, k is the reaction constant,  [A ][B] are the concentrations, and a and b are exponents.

Now the reaction has b= 0 since  changing the concentration of B  has no effect on the rate.

So,

R = k [ A ]^a

Doubling the amount of A, quadruples the reaction. Therefore a= 2, and the best law equation is R = k[ A ]²

Who uses holmium? I need to know for a science project.
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

Holmium can absorb neutrons, so it is used in nuclear reactors to keep a chain reaction under control. Its alloys are used in some magnets. Holmium has no known biological role, and is non-toxic. Holmium is found as a minor component of the minerals monazite and bastnaesite.

Explanation:

this is basically used in industries

An electric range burner weighing 699.0 grams is turned off after reaching a temperature of 482.0°C, and is allowed to cool down
jasenka [17]

Answer:

0.42 J/gºC

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the heat energy used to heat up the water. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (M) of water = 560 g

Initial temperature (T₁) = 22.7 °C

Final temperature (T₂) = 80.3 °C.

Specific heat capacity (C) of water = 4.18 J/gºC

Heat (Q) absorbed =?

Q = MC(T₂ – T₁)

Q = 560 × 4.18 (80.3 – 22.7)

Q = 2340.8 × 57.6

Q = 134830.08 J

Finally, we shall determine the specific heat capacity of the burner. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (M) of burner = 699 g

Initial temperature (T₁) = 482.0°C

Final temperature (T₂) = 22.7 °C

Heat (Q) evolved = – 134830.08 J

Specific heat capacity (C) of the burner =?

Q = MC(T₂ – T₁)

–134830.08 = 699 × C (22.7 – 482.0)

–134830.08 = 699 × C × –459.3

–134830.08 = –321050.7 × C

Divide both side by –321050.7

C = –134830.08 / –321050.7

C = 0.42 J/gºC

Therefore, the specific heat capacity of the burner is 0.42 J/gºC

In the spring of 1947 a ship carried ammonium nitrate fertilizer blew up while at a harbor in Texas City, Texas
nirvana33 [79]

It was a spring morning of April 16, 1947, was a morning that many citizens of Texas City thought was the end of the world. The French Liberty ship, SS Grandcamp, bearing a cargo of ammonium nitrate fertilizer (over 2300 tons) destined for war-torn Europe, caught fire in the Texas City harbor. The bright ... A little after 9.00 a.m., the Texas City Disaster (as it is popularly known) occurred as the ship Grandcamp exploded.

The following reaction occurs in a car’s catalytic converter.
blagie [28]

Answer:The correct answer is ;

The oxidation state of nitrogen in NO changes from +2 to 0, and the oxidation state of carbon in CO changes from +2 to +4 as the reaction proceeds.

Explanation:

2NO(g)+2CO(g)\rightarrow N_2(g)+2CO_2(g)

In an oxidation recation addition of oxygen atom takes place or loss of electrons takes place.

In an reduction reaction removal of oxygen atom takes place or gain of electrons takes place.

In the given reaction , the nitrogen atom is present in +2 oxidation state in NO molecule and present in 0 oxidation state in N_2 molecule. Hence, nitrogen is getting reduced that is reduction reaction. NO is oxidizing agent

In the given reaction , the carbon atom is present in +2 oxidation state in CO molecule and present in +4 oxidation state in CO_2 molecule. Hence ,carbon is getting oxidized that is oxidation reaction. CO is a reducing agent.
